==================== SECTION VI
- HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================
INHALATION
HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: This material is a potential
respiratory
sensitizer. Effects vary among
individuals and may include
headache,
dizziness, nausea, irritation of the nose, throat, and respiratory
tract,
and incoordination. Severe overexposure may produce anesthesia or
unconsciousness.
SKIN
AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: May cause eczema or
allergic
skin reaction. Long term contact has
the potential for causing
chemical
burns, necrosis, and scar tissue formation.
Eye contact may cause
irritation,
redness, and tearing, and blurred vision.
Skin contact may cause
irritation
and redness. Long term skin exposure may
dry and defat the skin,
causing
cracking, and in severe cases, dermatitis.
INGESTION
HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Ingestion can cause
gastrointestinal
irritation, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.
HEALTH
HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC): Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may
cause
eczema, dermatitis, sensitization, or allergic skin reactions. Breathing
high
concentrations of aerosols or mists of this material may cause nausea and
irritation
of the nose, throat, and respiratory tract.
Acute overexposure to
solvent
fumes during air drying of this product may cause headache, dizziness,
nausea,
and loss of coordination. Chronic
overexposure to solvent fumes may
cause
central nervous system damage.
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP: No
IARC MONOGRAPHS: Yes OSHA
REGULATED: No
CHRONIC
EFFECTS OF ETHYLBENZENE OVEREXPOSURE
The
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated
ethylbenzene
(a component of xylol) and classified it as a possible human
carcinogen
(Group 2B) based on sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in
experimental
animals, but inadequate evidence for cancer in exposed humans.
MEDICAL
CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: May aggrevate pre-existing
skin
conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, or cause allergic response.
Overexposure
to solvent fumes may aggravate anesthesia, respiratory tract
disease
or pre-existing lung disorders, nausea, and vomiting.
EMERGENCY
AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: INHALATION OVEREXPOSURE: Remove person to
fresh
air, If breathing stops, apply artificial respiration and seek immediate
medical
attention. NOTE: Use supplied-air
respirator for rescue in enclosed
areas. EYE CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of
tepid water for at least 15
minutes,
get medical attention. INGESTION: Do
not induce vomiting, if aspirated
material
can cause chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema. Drink 2 glasses of
milk
or water to dilute and contact physician or poison center. SKIN: Wash with
soap
and water, avoid repeated contact.

=========== SECTION VII
- PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING
AND USE ============
STEPS
TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Remove all sources of
ignition. Dike to prevent entry into sewers or surface
waters. Recover free
liquid
by shovelling into container using non-sparking tools, or add absorbant
such
as sand or earth to spill and sweep up.
Provide ventilation, wear a
respirator. Notify proper authorities if spill
contaminates land or waterways.
WASTE
DISPOSAL METHOD: Store soaked rags or absorbant material in airtight
containers
to prevent spontaneous combustion of material. Absorbant materials
may
emit flammable vapors. Dispose of in
chemical landfill or incinerate
assuring
conformity to all applicable local, state, and federal governing
regulations. Store soaked rags or absorbant material in
airtight containers to
prevent
spontaneous combustion of material.
Dispose of in chemical landfill or
incinerate
assuring conformity to all applicable local, state, and federal
governing
regulations.
PRECAUTIONS
TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Do not expose to flame, sparks,
or
other sources of ignition. Use
non-sparking alloy tools and explosion-proof
equipment
for handling. The need for grounding and bonding of containers in
accordance
with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106 and NFPA 77 should be assessed before
transferring
product. Store inside away from extreme
temperature variations.
Protect
containers from physical damage. Keep
containers tightly closed when
not
in use. Do not inhale vapors or mists,
use with adequate ventilation and
wear
a respirator. Do not store with food or
animal feed.
OTHER
PRECAUTIONS: Do not cut, weld, grind, drill, solder, or braze on or near
containers
whether full or empty. Do not reuse
containers without professional
reconditioning
and testing. Do not remove warning
labels from containers.
===================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ======================
RESPIRATORY
PROTECTION: Using this product in poorly ventilated areas may
require
the use of a respirator. Use Mine
Safety Appliance respirator #448849
with
organic vapor cartridge and mist filter (or equivalent) if air monitoring
demonstrates
that the concentration of listed hazardous materials exceeds the
recommended
TLV's. In enclosed areas where
ventilation is not used, wear a Mine
Safety
Appliance #475217 pressure/demand air-supplied respirator or equivalent.
VENTILATION:
Use good general mechanical ventillation and local exhaust adequate
to
reduce the concentration of vapors or mists of the listed hazardous materials
to
below the Threshold Limit Value(s) and the Lower Explosion Limit.
Ventilation
equipment must be explosion proof. Use
good general mechanical
ventillation
and local exhaust adequate to reduce the concentration of vapors or
mists
of the listed hazardous materials to below the Threshold Limit Value(s)
and
the Lower Explosion Limit.
PROTECTIVE
GLOVES: Use of gloves is recommended, use chemically resistant type.
EYE
PROTECTION: Use is recommended, use splash goggles or full face shields as
necessary.
OTHER
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Use impervious apron or coveralls to prevent
contaminating
streetclothes which may result in prolonged exposure. The use of
head
caps or helmets is recommended.
WORK
AND HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Eye washes and safety showers in the workplace are
recommended. Practice good industrial hygiene when using this
product: After
using
this product, do not smoke or eat until washing thoroughly. Remove
saturated
clothing or shoes at once and launder before reuse.
