EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

WARNING! MAY CAUSE EYE AND SKIN IRRITATION. 

R o u t e s o f E x p o s u r e :

 

Eye Contact: Exposure during the handling or mixing may cause immediate or delayed irritation.

Skin Contact: Exposure during the handling or mixing may cause immediate or delayed irritation.

Ingestion: Ingestion of large quantities may cause abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea.

Inhalation: Exposure to this product in excess of the applicable TVL or PEL may cause or aggravate other lung

conditions. Exposure to this product may cause irritation to the nose, throat, and upper respiratory system. 

Chronic: None known

Medical Conditions which May be Aggravated by Inhalation or Dermal Exposure: Persons with eye, skin or 

respiratory disorders or unusual (hyper) sensitivity to chemicals may experience adverse reactions to this product.

Carcinogenic Potential: This product and its ingredients are not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, OSHA, ACGIH or 

IARC.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Eyes: Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water. Continue flushing eye for at least 15 minutes, including under 

lids. Seek immediate medical attention. 

Skin: In case of contact, immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at least 5 minutes. Seek medical 

attention if irritation or redness occurs. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Clean contaminated clothing and 

shoes before re-use. 

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to an 

unconscious person. Seek immediate medical attention. Do not leave victim unattended. Vomiting may occur 

spontaneously. To prevent aspiration of swallowed product, lay victim on side with head lower than waist. If 

vomiting occurs and the victim is conscious, give water to further dilute the chemical. 

Inhalation: If respiratory irritation or distress occurs remove victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention if respiratory 

irritation or distress continues. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing as ceased apply artificial respiration 

using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask.

Notes to Physician: All treatments should be based on observed signs and symptoms of distress in the patient. 

Consideration should be given to the possibility that overexposure to materials other than this product may have 

occurred.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flash Point – 203oF (95oC)

Lower Explosive Limit – Not Applicable

Upper Explosive Limit – Not Applicable 

Hazardous Combustion Products –

Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards – Decomposition products may be toxic.

Extinguishing Media – Water, Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Halon

Special fire-fighting Procedures – None

Auto Ignition Temperature – Not Applicable 

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Wear appropriate protective gear for the situation. See Personal Protection information in section 8.

Containment of Spill: Dike or retain dilution water or water from firefighting for later disposal. Follow procedure 

described below under cleanup and disposal of spills.

Cleanup and Disposal of Spill: Absorb onto sand or other absorbent material and place into an appropriate storage 

container. For smaller spills use absorbent materials and dispose of properly. Washing area with water will create 

large amounts of foam. 

Environmental and Regulatory Reporting: Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. Spills may 

be reportable to the National Response Center (800-424-8802) and to state and/or local agencies.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Minimum/Maximum Storage Temperature: Store at temperatures of 35oF - 120oF

Handling: WARNING: Eye, skin and respiratory irritant. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash 

thoroughly after handling. Keep from freezing. Use with adequate ventilation. 
Page 3 of 6

Storage: Store in an area that is dry, well ventilated and in closed containers. Store in original container or 

appropriate end-use device.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

Exposure Guidelines:

Engineering Controls: Where engineering controls are indicated by use conditions or a potential for excessive 

exposure exists, the following traditional exposure techniques may be used to effectively minimize employee 

exposures.

Eye Protection: When engaged in activities where product could contact the eye, wear safety glasses with side 

shields, goggles, or face shield.

Skin Protection: Skin contact should be minimized through use of latex gloves and suitable long sleeved clothing. 

Consideration must be given both to durability as well as permeation resistance.

Respiratory Protection: Use local or general ventilation to control exposures below applicable exposure limits. 

NIOSH or MSHA approved particulate filter respirators should be used in the context of respiratory protection 

program meeting the requirements of the OSHA respiratory protection standard [29 CFR 1910.134] to control 

exposures when ventilation or other controls are inadequate or discomfort or irritation is experienced. Respirator 

and/or filter cartridge selection should be based on American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standards Z88.2 

Practices for Respiratory Protection. 

Ventilation: Use local exhaust or general dilution ventilation to control exposure within applicable limits.

Work Practice Controls: 

Personal hygiene is an important work practice exposure control measure and the following general measures 

should be taken when working with or handling this material: 

(1) Do not store, use, and/or consume foods, beverages, tobacco products, or cosmetics in areas where this 

material is stored.

(2) Wash hands and face carefully before eating, drinking, using tobacco, applying cosmetics, or using the 

toilet.

(3) Wash exposed skin promptly to remove accidental splashes or contact with this material.
