Brief contact may cause slight irritation. Prolonged contact may cause more severe irritation with pain and redness. Causes mild to moderate eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing and redness. Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Aspiration hazard - this material can enter lungs during swallowing or vomiting and cause lung inflammation and damage. HMIS II-ratings (scale 0-4): Health = 1, Fire = 4, Reactivity = 0 HMIS III-ratings (scale 0-4): Health = 1, Fire = 4, Physical Hazard = 0 NFPA-ratings (scale 0-4): Health = 1, Fire = 4, Reactivity = 0 Chronic / Long Term Effects: Reports have associated repeated aand prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: Through breathing, swallowing, and/or passage of material through the skin may include: stomach or intestinal upset, (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), irritation (nose, throat, airways), central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache, unconsciousness).

If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical attention immediately. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately. Seek medical attention immediately. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: Burning Rate: Autoignition Temperature: LEL: UEL: Flammability Classification: Non Flammable Extinguishing media: Foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray Special Fire fighting procedures: Self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Cool fire-exposed containers to prevent rupturing. Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: Exposure to temperatures above 120 Deg. F. may cause bursting. 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Stop all leaks. Isolate hazard area. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Eliminate all ignition sources. Disperse vapors with water spray. Prevent runoff from entering drains, sewers, streams, or other bodies of water. Absorb spill with inert material. Absorb unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and other materials to containers for disposal..
7 HALING A STORAGE 3 of 5 Handling Precautions: Storage Requirements: Store in a cool, dry area away from sparks, flame and other sources of ignition. Do not ouncture or incinerate container. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling may be harmful or fatal. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry area away from sparks, flame and other sources of ignition. Exposure to temperatures above 120 Deg F may cause bursting. Keep out of reach of children. 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSOL PROTECTION Engineering Controls: Protective Equipment: Exposure Guidelines/Other: Ventilation Requirement: Good general ventilation HMIS PP, G Goggles, Gloves, Vapor Respirator HMIS PP, B Goggles, Gloves Respiratory Protection: None needed for proper use in accordance with label directions.
