HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS This material is not hazardous under the criteria of the Federal OSHA Hazard Communication Standard 29 CFR 1910.1200.
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Symptoms: If breathing is difficult
Wash clothing and clean shoes before reuse. Immediately remove contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of skin contact, wash affected areas with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Symptoms: irritation develops or persists
In case of contact, flush eyes with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes. The eyelids should be held apart during irrigation to ensure thorough flushing of all eye tissue. Get medical attention.
Call a physician. If material is ingested, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Get medical attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists (for skin contact).
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam
A solid stream of water directed into the burning material could spread the fire.
During a fire, irritating and toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) formation is possible after prolonged heating.
A solid stream of water directed into the burning material could spread the fire. Evacuate non-emergency personnel to a safe area. Use cold water spray to cool fire exposed containers.
Firefighter Protection
Full emergency equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing should be worn by firefighters.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Extinguish all ignition sources. Keep unnecessary personnel out of spill area. Emergency clean-up personnel should wear appropriate protection when entering the spill area for clean-up. Notify local health authorities and other appropriate agencies if such contamination should occur. Cover the spill with absorbent material such as sand, sweeping com pound or diatomaceous earth. Scoop up solid absorbent for waste disposal. Spill area can be washed with water. Ventilate area to remove vapors.
Do not allow spilled or released material to enter ground water, waste water or soil.
Cover the spill with absorbent material... Scoop up solid absorbent for waste disposal. Spill area can be washed with water.
Materials: absorbent material such as sand, sweeping com pound or diatomaceous earth.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Store in a dry place away from excessive heat. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Avoid contact with skin or clothing. Avoid breathing dusts, vapors or mists. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
Store at ambient conditions. Store in a dry place away from excessive heat. Keep container tightly closed when not in use.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Storage area should be equipped with sprinkler system.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use local exhaust ventilation if dusting or misting is a problem, to maintain air levels below the recommended exposure limit.
Permeation resistant gloves (neoprene, nitrile, or PVC)
Safety glasses with side shields or goggles are recommended.
The specific respirator selected must be based on contamination levels found in the work place, must not exceed the working limits of the respirator and be jointly approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (NIOSH-MSHA). Air purifying respirator equipped with a full-face organic vapor and dust/mist cartridge if vapors are near or exceeding the exposure limits listed in Section 2. In areas of high concentrations, confined space or other poorly ventilated areas and for large spill clean-up sites, fresh air-line respirators or self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134.)
impervious clothing (long sleeve shirts) are recommended.
