************************************************************************************************************************

IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS

Eye: Contact with the eyes causes permanent damage, including blindness. Contact with the eyes causes

severe irritation. Symptoms may include pain, tearing, reddening, swelling and impaired vision. If this

material is heated, thermal burns may result from eye contact.

Skin: Contact with the skin causes permanent damage, including burns and scarring. Contact with the skin

may cause an allergic skin reaction. Symptoms may include pain, itching, discoloration, swelling, and

blistering. Not expected to be harmful to internal organs if absorbed through the skin. If this material is

heated, thermal burns may result from skin contact.

Ingestion: May be severely irritating and cause permanent damage to the mouth, throat, and stomach.

Symptoms may include pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and, in severe cases, collapse, shock, and death.

Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled.

 SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES

Eye: Flush eyes with water immediately while holding the eyelids open. Remove contact lenses, if worn,

after initial flushing, and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention. If

heated material should splash into eyes, flush eyes immediately with fresh water for 15 minutes while

holding the eyelids open. Remove contact lenses, if worn. Get immediate medical attention.

Skin: Wash skin with water immediately and remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get immediate

medical attention. To remove the material from skin, use soap and water. Discard contaminated clothing

and shoes or thoroughly clean before reuse. If the hot material gets on skin, quickly cool in water. See a

doctor for extensive burns. Do not try to peel the solidified material from the skin, or use solvents or

thinners to dissolve it. The use of vegetable oil or mineral oil is recommended for removal of this material

from the skin.

Ingestion: If swallowed, get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by

mouth to an unconscious person. If swallowed, get medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Never give

anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Inhalation: No specific first aid measures are required. If exposed to excessive levels of material in the air,

move the exposed person to fresh air. Get medical attention if coughing or respiratory discomfort occurs.

Note to Physicians: Probable mucosal damage may contraindicate the use of gastric lavage.

 SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

See Section 7 for proper handling and storage.

FIRE CLASSIFICATION:

OSHA Classification (29 CFR 1910.1200): Not classified by OSHA as flammable or combustible.

NFPA RATINGS: Health: 3 Flammability: 0 Reactivity: 0

FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:

Flashpoint: 180 °C (356 °F)

Autoignition: No data available

Flammability (Explosive) Limits (% by volume in air): Lower: Not Applicable Upper: Not

Applicable

PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:

Fire Fighting Instructions: This material will not burn.

 SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Protective Measures: If this material is released into a work area, evacuate the area immediately.

Persons entering the contaminated area to correct the problem or to determine whether it is safe to resume

normal activities must comply with all instructions in the Exposure Controls/PersonalProtection section.

Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to prevent
 _____________________________________________________________________

further contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater. Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing

precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as applying

non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping. Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated

soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with

applicable regulations. If heated material is spilled, allow it to cool before proceeding with disposal

methods.

Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at

(800) 424-8802 as appropriate or required.

 SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautionary Measures: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid contact of heated material

with eyes, skin, and clothing. Do not taste or swallow. Wash thoroughly after handling.

General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and

drainage systems and bodies of water.

Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this

material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves,

be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an electrostatic

charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank cleaning,

sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and use

appropriate mitigating procedures. For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106,

'Flammable and Combustible Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77, 'Recommended

Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API) Recommended Practice 2003,

'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents'.

Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty

container or it may rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue (solid, liquid,

and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose

such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition. They may explode and

cause injury or death. Empty containers should be completely drained, properly closed, and promptly

returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly.

 SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits, job activities, and

other substances in the work place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal protective

equipment. If engineering controls or work practices are not adequate to prevent exposure to harmful

levels of this material, the personal protective equipment listed below is recommended. The user should

read and understand all instructions and limitations supplied with the equipment since protection is usually

provided for a limited time or under certain circumstances.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS:

Use in a well-ventilated area.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

Eye/Face Protection: Wear protective equipment to prevent eye contact. Selection of protective equipment

may include safety glasses, chemical goggles, face shields, or a combination depending on the work

operations conducted. If this material is heated, wear chemical goggles or safety glasses or a face shield.

Skin Protection: Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Selection of protective clothing may

include gloves, apron, boots, and complete facial protection depending on operations conducted.

Suggested materials for protective gloves include: Nitrile Rubber, Silver Shield, Viton. If this material is

heated, wear insulated clothing to prevent skin contact if engineering controls or work practices are not

adequate to prevent skin contact.

Respiratory Protection: No respiratory protection is normally required.
