CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION PRODUCT NUMBER: 521, 522, 523, 524, 527 and 528 PRODUCT NAME : Alcohol Prep Pads 78gram & 40 grams IDENTIFICATION OF THE SUBSTANCE: IPA downgrade CHEMICAL FAMILY: Oxygenated hydrocarbon PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Clear colourless liquid MANUFACTURED FOR: PSS World Medical, Inc Southpoint Blvd Jacksonville, FL Tel: (800) EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBER: (800) (CHEMTREC) 2. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION OF INGREDIENTS CAS NUMBER: HAZARDOUS COMPONENTS SYMBOL/R-PHRASE Wt% (and/or CAS NUMBERS) PROPAN-2-OL (ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL) OR OEL F,Xi,Rll,R36,R HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION HEALTH HAZARDS Irritating to eyes Vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL HAZARD/FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS Extreme hazard, Leaks of gas or spills of liquid can readily form flammable mixtures at temperatures at or above the flash point. 4. FIRST-AID MEASURES INHALATION Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim from exposure, Administrator artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at rest. Call for prompt medical attention. SKIN CONTACT Flush with large amounts of water ;use soap if available. Remove grossly contaminated clothing, including shoes, and launder before reuse. EYE CONTACT Immediately flush eyes with large amount of water for at least 15 minutes. Get prompt

2 Page 2 of 8 medical attention. INGESTION If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention. 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. Shut off fuel to fire. If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapors and to protect men attempting to stop a look. Either allow fire to burn under controlled conditions or extinguish with alcohol type foam or dry chemical. Try to cover liquid spills with foam. Spill fires may be extinguished by flooding with large amounts of water. SPECIAL FIREF PRECAUTIONS See also Section 4 FIRST AID MEASURES as well as Section 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY. HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS No unusual 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES LAND SPILL Eliminate sources of ignition. Warn occupants of downwind areas of fire and explosion hazard. Prevent liquid from entering sewers, watercourses, or low areas. Keep pubic away, Shut off source if possible to do so without hazard. Advise authorities if substance has entered a watercourse or sewer or has contaminated soil or vegetation. Take measures to minimize the effect on the ground water. Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. Dilute contained spill with water. Recover by pumping(use an explosion proof or hand pump) or hand pump) or with a suitable absorbent. If liquid is too viscous for pumping, scrape up with shovels or pails and place in suitable container for recycle or disposal. Consult an expert on disposal of recovered material and ensure conformity to local disposal regulations. See also Section 4 FIRST AID MEASURES and Section 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY. WATER SPILL Eliminate sources of ignition. Warn occupant and shipping in downing areas oil fire and explosion hazard and request them to stay clear. Hose over spill area to effect dilution of water soluble material.

See also Section 4 FIRST AID MEASURES and Section 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE STORAGE TEMPERATURE (DegC): Ambient TRANSPORT TEMPERATURE (DegC): Ambient LOADING/UNLOADING TEMPERATURE (DegC): VISCOEITY (cst): 2.63 at 25 deg C STORAGE/TRANSPORT PRESSURE(kpa): Atmospheric ELECTROSTATIC ACCULATION HAZARD? No, but use proper grounding procedure USUAL SHIPPING CONTAINERS: Rail wagons, barges or drums MATERIALS AND COATINGS SUITABLE: Carbon Steel Stainless Steel Polyethylene Polypropylene Polyester Teflon MATERIALS AND COATINGS UNSUITABLE: Natural Rubber Butyl Rubber E F D M Polystyrene Compatibility with Plastic Materials can very, we therefore recommend that compatibility is tested prior to use. STORAGE/HANDLING GENERAL NOTES Keep container closed. Handle containers with care. Open slowly in order to control possible pressure release. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials. DO NOT handle store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. This material is not a static accumulator but use proper bonding and/or grounding procedures. DO NOT pressurize, cut, heat, or weld containers. Empty product containers may contain product residue. DO NOT reuse empty containers without commercial cleaning or reconditioning.
