Environmental Hazards: Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects (H412).
PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS:
Prevention: Avoid release to the environment (P273).
_____________________________________________________________________
Eye: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove contact lenses, if worn, and
flush eyes with water.
Skin: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove clothing and shoes if
contaminated. To remove the material from skin, apply a waterless hand cleaner, mineral oil, or petroleum
jelly. Then wash with soap and water. Discard contaminated clothing and shoes or thoroughly clean before
reuse.
Ingestion: No specific first aid measures are required. Do not induce vomiting. As a precaution, get
medical advice.
Inhalation: No specific first aid measures are required. If exposed to excessive levels of material in the air,
move the exposed person to fresh air. Get medical attention if coughing or respiratory discomfort occurs.
Note to Physicians: In an accident involving high-pressure equipment, this product may be injected under
the skin. Such an accident may result in a small, sometimes bloodless, puncture wound. However,
because of its driving force, material injected into a fingertip can be deposited into the palm of the hand.
Within 24 hours, there is usually a great deal of swelling, discoloration, and intense throbbing pain.
Immediate treatment at a surgical emergency center is recommended.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish
flames.

General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and
drainage systems and bodies of water.
Precautionary Measures: Keep out of the reach of children.
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this
material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves,
be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an
electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank
cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and
use appropriate mitigating procedures.
Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty
container or it may rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue (solid, liquid,
and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose
such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition. They may explode and
cause injury or death. Empty containers should be completely drained, properly closed, and promptly
returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 2), applicable exposure limits, job activities,
and other substances in the work place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal
protective equipment. If engineering controls or work practices are not adequate to prevent exposure to
harmful levels of this material, the personal protective equipment listed below is recommended. The user
should read and understand all instructions and limitations supplied with the equipment since protection is
usually provided for a limited time or under certain circumstances.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use in a well-ventilated area.

_____________________________________________________________________
Reactivity: May react with strong acids or strong oxidizing agents, such as chlorates, nitrates, peroxides,
etc.
Chemical Stability: This material is considered stable under normal ambient and anticipated storage and
handling conditions of temperature and pressure.
Hazardous Polymerization: Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
Incompatibility With Other Materials: Not applicable
Hazardous Decomposition Products: None known (None expected)
Skin: Contact with the skin is not expected to cause prolonged or significant irritation. Contact with the skin
is not expected to cause an allergic skin response. Not expected to be harmful to internal organs if
absorbed through the skin. High-Pressure Equipment Information: Accidental high-velocity injection under
the skin of materials of this type may result in serious injury. Seek medical attention at once should an
accident like this occur. The initial wound at the injection site may not appear to be serious at first; but, if
left untreated, could result in disfigurement or amputation of the affected part.
Acute Dermal Toxicity: The acute dermal toxicity hazard is based on evaluation of data for product
components.
Skin Irritation: The skin irritation hazard is based on evaluation of data for product components.
Skin Sensitization: The skin sensitization hazard is based on evaluation of data for product components.
Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled. Contains a petroleum-based mineral oil. May cause
respiratory irritation or other pulmonary effects following prolonged or repeated inhalation of oil mist at
airborne levels above the recommended mineral oil mist exposure limit. Symptoms of respiratory irritation
may include coughing and difficulty breathing.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity: The acute inhalation toxicity hazard is based on evaluation of data for product
components.
