containers exposed to fire which may
result in rupture. Keep containers
cooled
with water spray.
======================== SECTION V -
REACTIVITY DATA
==========================
STABILITY: Stable
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Excessive heat,
freezing temperatures, corrosive
atmospheres or liquids which may damage
containers.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): May
react vigorously with strong acids,
bases, and oxidizers.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS: May
include carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide, hydrogen chloride, and other
toxic gases.

==================== SECTION VI
- HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================
INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF
EXPOSURE: Effects vary among individuals
and may include nausea and irritation of
the nose, throat, and upper respiratory
tract. Effects vary among individuals, and
effects may be increased by heating
this material.
SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND
SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Eye contact may
cause irritation, redness, and
tearing. Skin contact may result in
irritation,
redness, dermatitis, or allergic
reaction. May cause sensitization
in
individuals allergic to the poison ivy
family of plants. This material is non-
toxic dermally, with LD50 > 2g/kg.
INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF
EXPOSURE: The oral toxicity of this
material has not been determined,
ingestion of large amounts may cause
gastrointestinal irritation, vomiting,
nausea, and diarrhea.
HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC):
Breathing high concentrations of aerosols or
mists of this material may cause temporary
irritation of the eyes, nose, throat,
respiratory tract, and skin. May produce allergic reactions in
individuals
allergic to the poison ivy family of
plants (Rhus family). This product is
a
mild sensitizer, repeated or prolonged
overexposure to the skin may result in
irritation or dermatitis. NOTE: This product contains trace amounts
of
formaldehyde and epichlorohydrin (CAS
106-89-8, ACGIH TLV=2ppm skin, OSHA
PEL=5ppm) which have caused cancer in
laboratory animals, but are not confirmed
human carcinogens.
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: Allergic skin conditions,
eczema, dermatitis. Respiratory symptoms associated with
preexisting lung
disorders may be aggravated by exposure to
this material.
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: Dike to prevent entry
into sewers or surface waters. Recover free liquid by shoveling into
container,
or add absorbent 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: 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 direct sun or
freezing temperatures, store inside away
from extreme temperature variations.
Protect containers from physical
damage. Keep containers tightly closed
when
not in use. Do not inhale aerosols 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: Spraying this
product in poorly ventilated areas may
require the use of a respirator. Use Mine Safety Appliance respirator #448849
with mist filter (or equivalent) if air
monitoring demonstrates that the
concentration of listed hazardous
materials carried by aerosols exceeds
recommended TLV's.
VENTILATION: Use good general mechanical
ventilation and local exhaust adequate
to reduce the concentration of aerosols or
mists carrying listed hazardous
materials to below the Threshold Limit
Value(s).
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 street clothes 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.
