Section 2: Composition / Information on Ingredients

Exposure Standards: No standards established for the product. Maintain air contaminant concentrations in the workplace at the lowest feasible levels.

Section 3: Hazard Identification
Emergency overview

Appearance: Straw, yellow mobile liquid.

Immediate effects: Harmful if swallowed. Corrosive to eyes and skin. Severe eye and skin irritant. Severe respiratory tract.

Potential health effects

Primary Routes of entry: Eye contact and skin contact, ingestion, skin absorption, and inhalation.
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure:
Eyes: Product vapor in low concentrations can cause lacrimation, conjunctivitis and corneal edema when absorbed into the tissue of the eye from the atmosphere. Corneal edema may give rise to a perception of 'blue haze'' or “fog'' around lights. The effect is transient and has no known residual effect. Burns of the eye may cause blindness.

Skin: Contact of undiluted product with the skin quickly causes severe irritation and pain and may cause burns, necrosis and permanent injury. Product is absorbed through the skin and may cause nausea, headache and general discomfort.

Ingestion: Ingestion may cause death unless treated promptly.

Inhalation: Inhalation of aerosols and mists may severely damage contacted tissue and produce scarring.

Chronic Exposure: Repeated and/or prolonged exposures may result in: nervous system disorders (such as narcosis, behavioral changes or decrease in motor function), adverse respiratory effects (such as cough, tightness of chest or shortness of breath), adverse eye effects (such as conjunctivitis or corneal damage), muscular dysfunction, adverse skin effects (such as rash, irritation or corrosion).

Chemical Listed As Carcinogen Or Potential Carcinogen: This product contains no carcinogens in concentrations of 0.1 percent or greater.

Potential environmental effects

See Ecological Information (Section 12)

Section 4: First Aid Measures
If accidental overexposure is suspected

Eye(s) Contact: Hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice.

Skin Contact: Remove product and immediately flush affected area with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Destroy contaminated leather apparel. Cover the affected area with a sterile dressing or clean sheeting and transport for medical care. DO NOT APPLY GREASES OR OINTMENTS. Control shock, if present. Wash contaminated clothing prior to reuse.
Inhalation: Move patient to fresh air. If breathing has stopped or is labored give assisted respiration (e.g. mouth-to-mouth). Prevent aspiration of vomit. Turn victim's head to the side. Seek medical advice.

Ingestion: In the event of ingestion, administer 3-4 glasses of milk or water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Seek medical advice.

Note to physician

Treatment: ND

Medical Conditions generally Aggravated by Exposure: Asthma, chronic respiratory disease (e.g. Bronchitis, Emphysema), eye disease, neurological disorders, skin disorders and allergies.

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: 148.89 °C (300 °F)
Flammable Limits: ND

Auto-ignition point: ND

Fire Hazard Classification (OSHA/NFPA): Class III B
Fire Extinguishing Media: Ignition will give rise to a Class B fire. Large Use: Alcohol foam, water spray. Small fire use: Carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical, dry sand or limestone.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: A face shield should be worn. Firefighters should wear butyl rubber boots, gloves and body suit and a self-contained breathing apparatus. Retain expended liquids from fire fighting for later disposal. Personnel in vicinity and downwind should be evacuated.

DOT Class: Amines, liquid, corrosive, n.o.s. (Tris-2,4,6-[Dimethylaminomethyl]phenol)

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Shut off or remove all ignition sources. Stop the leak, if possible. Construct a dike to prevent spreading. Reduce vapor spreading with a water spray. If recovery is not feasible, admix with dry soil, sand or non-reactive absorbent (sodium bisulfate) and place in a container or dumpster pending disposal. Transfer to containers by suction, preparatory for later disposal. Place in metal containers for recovery or disposal. Flush area with water spray. Clean-up personnel must be equipped with self contained breathing apparatus and butyl rubber protective clothing. Large Spills: recover spilled materials with a vacuum truck.
Waste Disposal Methods: Dispose of waste according to Federal, State and Local Regulations.

Section 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage: Keep in cool, dry, ventilated storage and in closed containers. Store in steel containers preferably located outdoors, above ground, and surrounded by dikes to contain spills or leaks. Do not store in iron or other reactive metals containers. Recommended suitable container materials include plastic, stainless, and carbon steels. Avoid contact with skin or eyes. Avoid breathing of vapors. Handle in well ventilated work space.

Storage temperature: ND

Storage Pressure: ND

Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls

Ventilation required: No specific controls needed, but general mechanical exhaust required.

Personal Protection Equipment

Respiratory protection: Not required under normal conditions in a well-ventilated workplace.

Protective gloves: Impermeable gloves made of: neoprene, cuffed butyl, or nitrile.
Skin protection: Impervious clothing: Slicker Suit, rubber boots, and full rubber suit (rain gear). Butyl or latex protective clothing.
Eye protection: Full face shield with goggles underneath.
Additional clothing and/or equipment: Provide readily accessible eye wash stations and safety showers.

Section 10: Stability and Reactivity
Stability: Stable
Conditions to Avoid: NA

Materials to Avoid (Incompatibility): Mineral acids (i.e. sulfuric, phosphoric, etc.). Organic acids (i.e. acetic acid, citric acid etc.). Oxidizing agents (i.e. per chlorates, nitrates etc.). Sodium or Calcium Hypochlorite. Product slowly corrodes copper, aluminum, zinc and galvanized surfaces. Reaction with peroxides may result in violent decomposition of peroxide possibly creating an explosion. A reaction accompanied by large heat release occurs when the product is mixed with acids. Heat generated may be sufficient to cause vigorous boiling creating a hazard due to splashing or splattering of hot material.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Irritating and toxic fumes at elevated temperatures. Nitric acid in a

fire. Nitrogen oxide can react with water vapors to form corrosive nitric acid (TLV=2 ppm).
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
