3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE: Clear, Colorless liquid.
IMMEDIATE CONCERNS: CAUTION! May cause eye and skin irritation.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYES: Moderate Irritation and Discomfort.
SKIN: Moderate irritation and discomfort possible. Defatting of skin, redness and chemical dermatitis possible. Toxic systemic effects from absorption are possible.
INGESTION: No significant effects beyond minor discormfort is expected.
INHALATION: Dizziness, impaired coordination, headaches and loss of consciousness. Severe respiratory tract irritation. Toxic systemic effects are possible.
ROUTES OF ENTRY: Absorption, Inhalation
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
SKIN: Wash exposed area with mild soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INGESTION: Do not Induce Vomiting. Get immediate medical attention.
INHALATION: Remove victim from area of exposure. If unconscious, give oxygen. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Get immediate medical attention.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASHPOINT AND METHOD: (50°F)TAG CC
FLAMMABLE LIMITS: 1.0 to 5.0
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide.
EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Vapor accumulations may flash and/or explode if ignited. Keep ignition sources, open flames, ect., away from thse fumes.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Proper respiratory equipment to protect against the hazardous effects of combustion products is recommended. Water in a straight hose stream may cause fire to spread and should be used as a cooling medium only.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILL:
Extinguish possible sources of ignition. Evacuate all unprotected personnel and ventilate area. Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory, skin/eye protection should enter spill area. Dike area to contain spill and clean up by absorbing on an inert absorbant or other means. Don't flush into sewers or natural waterways.
LARGE SPILL:
Contain material as described above and call the local fire or police department for immediate emergency assistance.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING:
Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from excessive heat, sparks and open flames. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin and/or breathing of vapors when handling. Keep containers closed when not in use.

Store unopened containers under cool, dry and ventilated conditions. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
ELECTROSTATIC ACCUMULATION HAZARD: When transferring this product, there is potential for the accumulation of static electricity. Consideration should be given to bonding and grounding of equipment during loading, unloading, and transfer of this product.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: If current ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the established exposure guidelines, additional ventilation or exhaust systems may be required. Where explosive mixtures may be present, electrical systems safe for such locations must be used.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
EYES AND FACE: Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles when handling this material.
SKIN: To prevent any contact, wear impervious protective clothing such as neoprene or butyl rubber gloves, apron, boots or whole bodysuit, as appropriate.
