See Toxicological Information (Section11)
Potential environmental effects
See Ecological Information (Section 12)
Section 4: First Aid Measures
If accidental overexposure is suspected
Eye(s): Contact: In case of contact with eyes, flush with copious amount of water for at least15 minutes. Assure adequate flushing by separating the eyelids with fingers. Call a physician.
Skin Contact: In case of skin contact, flush with copious amounts of water
for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing becomes difficult,
call a physician.
Ingestion: If swallowed, wash out mouth with water provided person is conscious. Call a physician.
Note to physician
Treatment: ND

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: 245 O F (118 O C), Method: Closed cup.
Flammable Limits: ND
Auto-ignition point: ND
Fire Extinguishing Media: Suitable: Water spray. Carbon dioxide, dry chemical
powder, or appropriate foam.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Protective equipment: Wear self-contained
breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and
eyes. Do not direct a solid stream of water at burning material as spattering
may result.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions.
Container explosion may occur under fire conditions.
Hazardous combustion products: Toxic fumes, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and phenolics.

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Wear respirator,
chemical safety goggles, rubber boots, and heavy rubber gloves. Cover with dry
lime or soda ash, pick up, keep in a closed container, and hold for waste
disposal. Ventilate area and wash spill site after material pickup is complete.
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: User exposure: Do not breathe
vapor. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep tightly closed.
Storage temperature: Ambient temperature.
Storage Pressure: NA
Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls
Ventilation required: Good general ventilation should be sufficient for most conditions. Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary for some operations.
Personal Protection Equipment
Respiratory protection: No respiratory protection should be needed
Protective gloves: Wear chemical-resistant gloves.
Skin protection: Wear protective clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse.
Eye protection: Wear safety goggles.
Additional clothing and/or equipment: NIF
