SECTION V- REACTIVITY DATA

          

STABILITY:  Stable.  Avoid open flames, high temperatures (above 120°F) and direct sunlight.

 

INCOMPATIBILITY:  Strong oxidizers, selected amines, strong acids or bases.

 

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION  PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide may be formed on burning in limited air supply.

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.

 

SECTION VI- HEALTH HAZARD DATA

 

SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE:

EYES:

Could cause excessive redness, irritation, burning and blurred vision.

SKIN:

Could be moderately irritating and cause redness, edema, or drying of the skin.

 

SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE:

EYES:  Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes.  Hold eyelids apart to ensure complete flushing.  Do not attempt to neutralize with chemical agents.  Get medical help immediately.

SKIN:  Remove contaminated clothing and flush skin with water. Wash with soap and water until material has been removed.  Get medical help.  SKIN ABSORPTION:  Prolonged or widespread skin contact may result  in the absorption of potentially harmful amounts of material.

INGESTION:  If parge amounts are ingested, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and diarrhea may occur.  Aspiration may occur during swallowing or vomiting resulting in lung damage.

INHALATION:  Vapors and mist may be irritating and cause discomfort in nose and throat, nasal discharge, and coughing.  Prolonged over-exposure may cause difficulty in breathing, headache, nausea, vomiting and drowsiness.

SYSTEMIC AND OTHER EFFECTS:  Nausea, vomiting and drowsiness.  Prolonged overexposure can cause damage to the peripheral nervous system of humans.  Symptoms include numbness and muscle weakness in hands, fingers and toes

 

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:

EYES:  Flush with water for at least 15 minutes, raising each eyelid to ensure complete flushing.  If irritation persists, get medical attention immediately.

SKIN:  Wash thoroughly with soap and water for at least 15 minutes.  Wash clothing before reuse. If irritation occurs and persists,   Seek medical attention.

INHALATION:  Should symptoms noted under physiological effects occur, remove to fresh air.  If not breathing, apply artificial respiration.  Call doctor immediately.

INGESTION:  Unlikely, as an aerosol.  DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.  Aspiration of the fluid can cause serious lung injury, ie chemical premonitis.  Call doctor immediately.

 

SECTION VII- ENVIRONMENTAL AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION

 

ACTION TO TAKE FOR SPILLS/LEAKS:  Eliminate all ignition sources, including internal combustion engines and power tools.  Ventilate area.  Wear self contained breathing apparatus.  Contain or dike spill.  Cover with inorganic absorbant material.  Collect spilled material.  Clean up residue.  Place in approved DOT container for disposal.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:  Remove to permitted waste disposal facility, in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.

 

SECTION VIII- HANDLING AND STORAGE

 

Store in tightly sealed containers.  Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.  Do not get in eyes, on skin or clothing.  Do not breathe vapors, mist or gas.  Do not store or transfer to unmarked container.  Do not throw empty containers in trash compactor or into fire.  Do not store in direct sunlight.  Store containers below 120° F.  Read label before using.  Do not smoke when handling this product.
