Section 3: Hazards Identification

Potential Health Effects:

Skin: Causes corrosive burns. Brief exposures may cause irritation and defatting of the skin. Exposures not promptly washed off may lead to toxic effects similar to ingestion. Harmful if absorbed through the skin.

Eyes: Causes burns and may result in permanent injury to eyes including blindness.

Inhalation: Mists and vapors can irritate the throat and respiratory tract. High vapor concentrations may cause central nervous system effects. Symptoms may include headaches, dizziness, and drowsiness. Harmful if inhaled.

Ingestion: Ingestion can cause gastrointestinal irritation, swelling of the larynx, difficulty in breathing, circulatory shock, convulsions and possibly death.

Chronic: Ingestion of ethanol by pregnant women can cause reproductive toxicity to the fetus.

Section 4: First Aid Measures

Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with water for 15-20 minutes, while holding eyelids open. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Seek medical attention at once.

Skin or Clothing: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.

Inhalation: If symptoms are experienced, move victim to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.

Ingestion: Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

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

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point: None when heated to 105ºC – Tag Closed Cup Upper & Lower Not determined. Flame Limits: Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, water fog or any other agent suitable for

surrounding fire. Fire Fighting Equipment Firefighters should wear full protective clothing including self-contained & Instructions: breathing apparatus. Cool fire exposed containers with spray. Hazardous Combustion Irritating and toxic gases or fumes may be released during a fire. Products: Unusual Fire Explosion Combustion products are toxic. Hazards:

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures

Spill and Leak Procedures

Emergency Action: Isolate spill or leak area immediately. Keep unauthorized personnel away. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas where vapors may accumulate. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area).

Spill Cleanup: Ventilate closed spaces before entering. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Floor will be slippery. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk.. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers.

Large Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Pump into containers for disposal.

Section 7: Handling & Storage

Handling Procedures: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking, or using toilet facilities. Wash thoroughly after work using soap and water.

Storage Procedures: Keep the container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep from freezing. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or other sources of ignition. Prevent electrostatic charge buildup by using common bonding and grounding techniques.

Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Engineering Controls: Provide adequate local exhaust ventilation (explosion proof) to maintain worker exposure below exposure limits.

Personal Protective Equipment:

Eyes/Face: Wear chemical goggles. Use a face shield if splashing is possible. Skin: Use impervious gloves (rubber or neoprene). Wear suitable protective clothing.

Respiratory: If exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation is experienced, a NIOSH/MSNA approved respirator or an organic/vapor removing cartridge respirator protection device should be worn. Ventilation and other forms of engineering controls are often the preferred means for controlling chemical exposures. Respiratory protection may be needed for non-routine or emergency situations.

General: Eye wash fountain and emergency showers are recommended.
