These materials may be listed for local "Right-To-Know" compliance and for other reasons. 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Flammable liquid and vapor. Clear colorless liquid. POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS SKIN: EYES: Irritant. Dermatitis may occur as a result of defatting. Irritant. Burning and itching may occur. INHALATION: Causes respiratory tract irritation, nausea, vomiting, headache, intoxication. Based on animal testing, very high concentrations may cause convulsions, coma, central nervous system depression, liver and kidney damage. MSDS Number: B&J 0053 Page 1 of 9

2 INGESTION: Causes mouth and throat irritation, nausea, vomiting, headache, intoxication. Based on animal testing, very high concentrations can cause convulsions, coma, central nervous system depression, liver and kidney damage. DELAYED EFFECTS: Can cause liver and kidney damage. Ingredients found on one of the OSHA designated carcinogen lists are listed below. INGREDIENT NAME NTP STATUS IARC STATUS OSHA LIST No ingredients listed in this section. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES SKIN: EYES: Wash with mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly. Get medical attention for irritation or other symptoms. Rinse eyes continuously with water or normal saline solution for 15 minutes. If redness or burning persists, contact a physician. INHALATION: Move victim from exposure area to fresh air. If victim is not breathing administer mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing. Get medical attention. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical assistance immediately. ADVICE TO PHYSICIAN: No specific antidote. Treat supportively and symptomatically. 5.

MSDS Number: B&J 0053 Page 2 of 9

3 UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Material is highly volatile and extremely flammable. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PRECAUTIONS/INSTRUCTIONS: Water will not be effective in extinguishing a fire and may spread it. A water spray can be used to cool fire-exposed containers. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air and may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Heat will build pressure and may rupture closed storage containers. Prevent fire control methods runoff from entering sewers and waterways. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES IN CASE OF SPILL OR OTHER RELEASE: (Always wear recommended personal protective equipment.) Eliminate sources of ignition. Isolate the spill area. Stop leak in a safe and practical manner. (If leak cannot be stopped easily and safely, advise trained emergency response personnel of the situation.) Using inert material (such as ground corncobs) dike the spilled solvent to prevent it from running into drains or waterways. Spills and releases may have to be reported to Federal and/or local authorities. See Section 15 regarding reporting requirements. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE NORMAL HANDLING: (Always wear recommended personal protective equipment.) Protective Neoprene or natural rubber gloves and apron are recommended. Goggles and/or face shield should be worn to guard against splashing. Keep away from heat and open flame. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Contaminated clothing should be decontaminated using dedicated spill clean-up containers, plenty of water, and detergent prior to conventional laundering in home laundry facilities. This material is incompatible with acids, oxidizers, explosives, and plastics. Provide adequate ventilation (local or general exhaust) when handling storing, or transferring material. Ground and bond containers. STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS: Store in an area designed for storage of flammable liquids. (OSHA 29 CFR ) Store full or partially full containers in an upright position, tightly closed in a cool, dry, well ventilated facility designed for flammable liquids. Store away (segregate) from acids, oxidizers, and explosives. Handle containers in a safe manner using proper equipment and avoiding damage to the containers. Flammable liquid and vapor. Once liquid solvent has been completely dispensed, containers which appear empty should be handled in the same manner as when they were full of liquid solvent. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION ENGINEERING CONTROLS: MSDS Number: B&J 0053 Page 3 of 9

4 Provide general or local exhaust ventilation systems to maintain airborne concentrations below exposure levels. Local exhaust ventilation is preferred because it prevents contaminant dispersion into the work area by controlling it at its source. MSDS Number: B&J 0053 Page 4 of 9

5 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT SKIN PROTECTION: Where liquid contact with exposed skin is possible, wear solvent resistant impervious personal protective equipment (gloves, face shields, etc.). Contaminated clothing and personal protective equipment should be laundered and cleaned separately at the work site. EYE PROTECTION: Wear safety glasses. Contact lenses should not be worn. Where splashing or dripping is likely to occur, use chemical resistant goggles and/or face shield. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use. Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR ) and, if necessary, wear a MSHA/NIOSH-approved respirator. For emergency or non-routine operations (cleaning spills, reactor vessels, or storage tanks), wear an SCBA. Warning! Airpurifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS: Emergency eyewash fountains and safety showers should be available in the vicinity of any potential exposure.
