Fire Fighting Procedures –A self-contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece operating in a positive pressure mode may be required. Avoid using a water stream to prevent frothing. Water or foam may cause frothing which can be violent and may present a life threatening situation. Frothing is most likely to occur when streams of wter or foam are sprayed into hot or burning containers. |

|
Fire and Explosion Hazards – Never use a welding or cutting torch on or near drums of this material (even empty drums) because the material can ignite explosively. |
|||||||||||||
|
Hazardous Products of Combustion – Carbon monoxide and other
organic compounds may be formed upon combustion. |

Signs and
symptoms of Exposure: Eyes—Severe irritation including redness, tearing and
blurred vision. Skin—Prolonged or repeated contact may cause skin
irritation and/or dermatitis. Inhalation—Breathing the fumes
from these materials, particularly when they are heated and/or in an enclosed
space may cause headache, nausea, and feeling of dizziness or weakness. Fumes from these materials can irritate the
nose, throat and lungs. Prolonged
exposure to high levels of fumes may result in loss of consciousness and in
rare instances death as a result of being unable to breathe. Ingestion— Swallowing these materials can cause irritation
of the mouth, throat, and stomach. Nausea,
vomiting and diarrhea may result from ingestion. However, it is unlikely that people working
with these materials would swallow them. |

|
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated –None
Known |
||||||||||||
|
Emergency and
First Aid Procedures. Eyes—If these materials get into the eyes flush the
person’s eyes with large amounts of water for at least fifteen (15)
minutes. Be certain to lift the upper
and lower lids to ensure that all of the material is flushed out of the eyes. Contact a physician. Skin—Immediately remove any contaminated clothing and
wash the affected areas of skin with soap and water. Launder contaminated items of clothing
before wearing. If skin irritation or
redness persists or develops after exposure, contact a physician. Inhalation—Move the individual to fresh air away from
fumes. If he/she is having difficulty
breathing or is not fully conscious, administer oxygen and obtain immediate
medical attention. Ingestion—Do not induce
vomiting. Vomiting can cause the
material to be aspirated into the lungs, causing chemical pneumonitis. This can be fatal. Keep the person warm and quiet. Obtain immediate medical attention. |

Precautions For Safe Handling and Use
|
||||||||||||
|
Steps to be
Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled. Small
Spills: Scoop up material into a suitable container. The material can be reused. Large
Spill: Same as for a small spill. The material can be reused. |
||||||||||||
|
Waste Disposal Method – Use old material as a
base under fresh product. |
||||||||||||
|
Precautions
to be Taken in Handling and Storing – Store in well ventilated
area away from heat and flame. Dispose

||||||||||||
Section VIII –
Control Measures
|
||||||||||||
|
Respiratory
Protection (Specify Type) – Respiratory protection should not be required when
handling these products in open air.
However, if these materials are being handled in a confined area, wear
a respirator with a NIOSH approved organic vapor respiratory cartridge, or NOISH
approved air supplied breathing equipment to prevent inhaling fumes. A respirator is only required when working
with this material in a confined or inadequately ventilated area. Provide sufficient ventilation (mechanical
ventilation such as a general or local exhaust system) to prevent vapors from
accumulating and to maintain exposure levels below TLV(s). |
||||||||||||
|
Protective
Gloves – Wear gloves |
Eye
Protection – Wear a face shield or
safety glasses. |
|||||||||||
|
Other protective Clothing or Equipment – Impervious
clothing and shoes. |
||||||||||||
|
Work/Hygienic Practices – Observe good hygiene. Wash hands thoroughly after eating,
drinking, and using restrooms, etc. |
