Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: EYE:MAY CAUSE MODERATE TO
    SEVERE IRRITATION. SKIN: MODERATELY IRRITATING. INHALATION: MAY
    CAUSE NAMAL AND RESPIRATORY TRACT. INGESTION: MAY CAUSE
    GASTROINTESTINAL IRRITATION. CHRONIC: PROLONGED  AND REPEATED
    CONTACT WITH THE SKIN MAY CAUSE DEFATTING AND DERMATITIS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER.
Effects of Overexposure:EYE: REDNESS, TEARING, OR BLURRED VISION. SKIN:
    DRYING OF SKIN. INHALATION: MAY PRODUCE SYMPTOMS OF INTOXICATION,
    SUCH AS HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, WEAKNESS, FATIGUE, LOSS OF
    COORDINATION AND CONSC IOUSNESS, EVEN DEATH. INGESTION: NAUSEA,
    VOMITING OR DIARRHEA. ASPIRATION INTO THE LUNGS MAY CAUSE

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:EYE: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH  WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES,
    INCLUDING UNDER THE EYELIDS. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY. SKIN:
    REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING & SHOES. WASH AFFECTED AREAS WITH SOAP
    & FL USH WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR 15 TO 20 MINUTES. LAUNDER
    CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, GET
    MEDICAL ATTENTION. INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING
    HAS STOPP ED APPLY ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL
    ATTENTION. INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF SPONTANEOUS
    VOMITING OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL
    ATTENTION.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point:=48.9C, 120.F
Autoignition Temp:=232.2C, 450.F
Lower Limits:0.7
Upper Limits:5.0
Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM, OR CARBON DIOXIDE
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL EXPOSED CONTAINERS.
    USE A SMOTHERING TECHNIQUE FOR EXTINGUISHING FIRE OF THIS MATERIAL.
    DO NOT USE A FORCED WATER STREAM DIRECTLY ON PETROLEUM FIRES AS
    THIS WILL TEND TO SCATTE R THE FIRE. FIREFIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR SELF
    CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY
    TRAVEL ALONG THE GROUND AND CAN BE IGNITED BY HEAT, POLOT LIGHTS,
    OTHER FLAMES AND IGNTION SOURCES AT LOCATIONS DISTANT FROM MATERIAL
    HANDLING POINT. FLOWING FUEL C AN BE IGNITED BY SELF-GENERATED
    STATIC ELECTRICITY.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:REMOVE SOURCES OF HEAT OR IGNITION INCLUDING
    INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES AND POWER TOOLS. CLEAN UP SPILL BUT DO
    NOT FLUSH TO SEWER OR SURFACE WATER. VENTILATE AREA AND AVOID
    VAPORS OR MISTS.
Neutralizing Agent:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN TIGHTLY CLOSED CONTAINERS IN
    A DRY COOL PLACE, AWAY FROM INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS AND SOURCES OF
    HEAT AND IGNITION. GROUND AND BOND ALL TRANSFER AND STORAGE
    EQUIPMENT TO PREVENT STATIC SPARKS A ND EQUIP WITH SELF-CLOSING
    VALVES, PRESSURE BUNGS AND FLAME ARRESTORS.
Other Precautions:EMPTY CONTAINERS MAY CONTAIN RESIDUE (LIQUID AND/OR
    VAOR) AND CAN BE DANGEROUS. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE,
    SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND OR EXPOSE SUCH CONTAINERS TO HEAT, FLAME,
    SPARKS OR OTHER SOUR CES OF IGNITION; THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE
    INJURY OR DEATH.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:USE APPROVED RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
    FOR CLEANING LARGE SPILLS OR ENTRY INTO LARGE TANKS, VESSELS, OR
    OTHER CONFINED SPACES OR IN APPLICATIONS WHERE AIRBORNE
    CONCENTRATIONS MAY EXCEED OCCUPAT IONAL EXPOSURE LEVELS.
Ventilation:PROVIDE ADEQUATE GENERAL AND LOCAL VENTILATION: 1) TO
    MAINTAIN AIRBORNE CHEMICAL CONCENTRATIONS BELOW APPLICABLE EXPOSURE
    LIMITS, 2) TO PREVENT ACCUMULATION OF
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES
Eye Protection:REMOVE CONTACT LENSES AND WEAR CHEMICAL SAFETY GLASSES
    OR GOGGLES
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING AND BOOTS.
