=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INGESTION: GASTROINTESTINAL
    IRRITATION, NAUSEA/VOMITING. INHALATION: NOSE OR THROAT IRRITATION.
    HIGH CONCENTRATIONS MAY CAUSE CNS DEPRESSION, HEADACHES, DIZZINESS,
    CONVULSIONS & INCREASES THE POTENTIA L FOR N-HEXANE TO CAUSE
    NEUROTOXIC EFFECTS. EYE/SKIN: MAY CAUSE IRRITATION & DEFATTING.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE
Effects of Overexposure:ASPIRATION OF MATERIAL INTO LUNG MAY CAUSE
    CHEMICAL PNEUMONITIS WHICH CAN BE FATAL. PROLONGED/REPEATED
    OVEREXPOSURE TO SOLVENTS CAUSES PERMANENT BRAIN, LIVER, KIDNEY,
    SPLEEN, & PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYST EM DAMAGE. INTENTIONAL MISUSE BY
    DELIBERATELY CONCENTRATING/INHALING THE CONTENTS MAY BE HARMFUL OR
    FATAL.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:KIDNEY, LUNG, SPLEEN & PERIPHERAL

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INGESTION: DON'T INDUCE VOMITING. CALL POISON CONTROL CENTER,
    INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED, GIVE
    ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. KEEP WARM/QUIET. GET MED ATTN. EYE: FLUSH
    W/LARGE  AMTS OF WATER. GET MED ATTN. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED
    CLOTHING. WASH AFFECTED AREA W/SOAP & WATER.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point:9F CALCULATED
Extinguishing Media:USE NFPA CLASS B FIRE EXTINGUISHERS CO2, ALL
    PURPOSE DRY CHEMICAL OR ALCOHOL FOAM. POLYMER FOAM IS PREFERRED.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR SCBA. WATER MAY BE INEFFECTIVE. IF WATER
    IS USED, FOG NOZZLES ARE PREFERABLE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS MAY CAUSE FLASH BACK TO SOURCE OF
    IGNITION. WATER MAY BE USED TO COOL EXPOSED CONTAINERS TO PREVENT
    PRESSURE BUILD-UP/POSSIBLE AUTO-IGNITION/EXPLOSION.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:ELIMINATE IGNITION SOURCE FLAMES, HOT
    SURFACES, ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, STATIC DISCHARGE/SPARKS.
    DIKE/CONTAIN SPILL W/INERT MATERIAL (SAND/EARTH). TRANSFER LIQUIDS
    TO COVERED METAL CONTAINERS FOR DISPOS AL W/INERT ABSORBENT. USE
    ONLY NON-SPARKING TOOLS.

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:DON'T STORE >90F. DON'T TAKE
    INTERNALLY. CLOSE CONTAINER AFTER EACH USE. EMPTY CONTAINERS
    MUSTN'T BE WASHED/RE-USED FOR ANY PURPOSE.
Other Precautions:CONTAINERS SHOULD BE GROUNDED WHEN TRANSFERRING.
    DON'T STORE >95F. NEVER USE PRESSURE TO EMPTY. DON'T WELD, BRAZE OR
    CUT ON EMPTY CONTAINER. HAZARD CLASS: FLAMMABLE LIQUID; UN1133.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============
