NE: Not Established
Primary Route(s) of Entry: Skin contact /absorption and inhalation
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: Gastrointestinal irritation (nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea), irritation to nose, throat, and respiratory tract.
Target Organ Effects: None expected.
IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS
EYES: Exposure may cause noticeable pain, and severe irritation.
SKIN: Exposure may cause mild skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may
dry the skin. Symptoms may include redness, burning, and drying and cracking.
Additional symptoms of skin contact may include: allergic reaction. Skin absorption is
possible, but harmful effects are not expected from this route of exposure under normal
handling and use.
INHALATION: Exposure to vapor or mist is possible. Short term inhalation is no likely
to cause harmful effects: breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms are
more typically seen at air concentrations exceeding the recommended exposure limits.
INGESTION: Single dose oral toxicity is low. Swallowing small amounts during normal
handling is not likely to cause harmful effects: swallowing large amounts may be
harmful.
REPRODUCTIVE / DEVELOPMENTAL INFORMATION: No Data
CARCINOGENIC INFORMATION: IARC, NTP, or OSHA does not list this material as
a carcinogen
LONG TERM EFFECTS: No Data
EYES- Immediately flush with water. Remove contact lenses if applicable, and
continue flushing with water. Call a physician if irritation persists.
SKIN- Flush with water. Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Call physician if
irritation persists.
INHALATION- If symptoms develop, move victim to fresh air. If symptoms persist call
a physician.
INGESTION- Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water, then drink one glass
of water. Call a physician immediately. Never give anything by mouth if victim is
unconscious, is rapidly losing consciousness or is convulsing.
Flash Point: No Flash at Boil (C.C. method)
Explosive limits: Not Applicable
Autoignition Temperature: Not Applicable
Hazardous Products of Combustion: Not Applicable
Extinguishing Media: Not Applicable
Fire Fighting Instructions: Avoid contact with this material. Avoid
walking in spilled material. Wear protective clothing for skin and eyes
Small Spill: Absorb with an inert solid and scoop up for disposal, then rinse soiled
area with water down the drain.
Large Spill: Stop leak at the source and collect into a suitable container, then treat as
a small spill.
Handling: Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since
emptied containers retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard
precautions given in the data sheet must be observed.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed when not in use.

Skin Protection: Wear rubber gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier). To
prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots.
Respiratory Protection: If workplace exposure limits of product or any component are
exceeded (see exposure guidelines), NIOSH/OSHA approved air supplied respirator is
advised in the absence of proper environmental control. OSHA relations also permit
other NIOSH/OSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specific conditions (see
your industrial hygienist). Engineering or administrative controls should be
implemented to reduce exposure.
Engineering Controls: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and local exhaust)
ventilation to maintain exposure below level of overexposure (from known, suspected
or apparent adverse effects).
