2. COMPOSITION and INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
NOTE: This product is an “Article” under the U.S. Federal OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200), EU Directives, and the Canadian Workplace
Hazardous Materials Standard. Refer to Section 15 (Regulatory Information) for specific regulatory citations. As articles, these products present negligible health and
physical hazards under reasonably anticipated circumstances of use. Subsequently, a Material Safety Data Sheet is not required for this product under Standards cited above.
This document is prepared to provide persons using these products with additional safety information. The fluid contained inside the vial may be released if the vial is cracked
or broken, and although negligible physical and health hazards are possible due to the small quantity of the liquid in each vial, this MSDS has been prepared to address
potential flammability and health hazards should a large quantity of fluid be release from a large quantity of vials at the same time.
EU LABELING/CLASSIFICATION: As an Article, this product does not meet the definition of any hazard class as defined by
the European Union Council Directives. The fluid in the vials meets the definition of Toxic as defined by the European
Union Council Directive 67/548/EEC or subsequent Directives.
EU CLASSIFICATION: Carcinogenic Category 2: T [Toxic]
EU RISK PHRASES: R: 45 [May cause cancer.]; R: 65 [Harmful; may cause lung damage if swallowed.]

3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Product Description: This product is a clear, light yellow liquid, with an odor characteristic of
naphtha that is contained inside a clear, sealed vial. The volume of the liquid in the vial is 1.4-2.9 mL. Health Hazards:
Due to containment of the liquid in a sealed via
l, exposure via all routes is unlikely unless the vials are cracked or broken.
Due to the small volume of liquid contained in the vial, no significant health hazard is anticipated if released. Release of a
large quantity of liquids may be harmful if ingested. Prolonged skin contact may cause dermatitis. Inhalation of high
concentration of mists or sprays may be irritating and/or cause adverse central nervous system effects. Flammability
Hazards: This fluid in these vials is combustible. Due to the small volume of liquid in each vial, a significant fire hazard is
not anticipated unless a large quantity of vials is involved. If involved in a fire, the fluid can ignite and produce toxic gases
and compounds such as carbon oxides. Reactivity Hazards: This product presents no reactivity hazard. Environmental
Hazards: Release of a single vial does not pose a significant hazard to the environment. Release of a large quantity of
the liquid may be harmful to contaminated plant, animal, and aquatic life. Emergency Recommendations: Emergency
responders must wear the personal protective equipment suitable for the situation to which they are responding.
EU LABELING/CLASSIFICATION: As an Article, this product does not meet the definition of any hazard class as defined by
the European Union Council Directives. The fluid in the vials meets the definitions of Toxic as defined by the European
Union Council Directive 67/548/EEC or subsequent Directives.
EU CLASSIFICATION: Carcinogenic Category 2: T [Toxic]
EU RISK PHRASES: R: 45 [May cause cancer.]; R: 65 [Harmful; may cause lung damage if swallowed.]
