Potential Health Effects

Eye Contact:Eye contact: Sever irritation, tearing, redness, and blurred vision. Skin contact: Can dry and defat sking causing cracks, irritation and demititus.
Skin Absorption:Can cause allergic reactions and systematic toxicity.
Inhalation:Dizziness, sneezing, breathing difficulty, headaches, and loss of coordination. Prolonged exposure to high concentrations of vapors may by fatal.
Ingestion:Ingestion: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea. May be fatal if swallowed.

Section 4 - First-Aid Measures

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Anesthesia, headache, respiratory tract irritation, dermatitus, allergic reactions, nausea, and vomiting.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Extinguishing Media: Foam, alcohol foam, CO2, dry chemical
Fire Fighting Procedures: Water spray mey be ineffective, but mey be used to cool containers exposed to heat. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Vapors may ignite explosively. Exposure to heat or prolonged exposure to sun may cause bursting. Do not expose to heat or store at temperatures above 120 F. Do not puncture or incinerate container.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Eliminate ignition sources, ensure good ventilation, dike spill area, cover spill with absorbent material. Place in a closed container and transport outside.
Personal Precautions:
Environmental Precautions:

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

General Handling: Smoking, eating or drinking in areas where this chemiacl is used or stored should be strictly prohibited. For prefessional use only. Not intended for sale to the general public.
Other Precautions:
Storage: Use non-sparking utensils when handling this material. Avoid hotmetal surfaces. Use in cool, well ventilated areas. Keep containers covered when not in use. Do not transfer material to clear of glass containers. Keep away from heat, sparks, or open flames.
