Response : Get medical attention if you feel unwell. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical
attention. IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing.
Call a POISON CENTER or physician if you feel unwell. IF SWALLOWED:
Immediately call a POISON CENTER or physician. Do NOT induce vomiting.
Storage : Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep cool.
Disposal : Dispose of contents and container in accordance with all local, regional, national and
international regulations.
Supplemental label : Eliminate sources of ignition. Avoid spark promoters. Ground/bond container and
elements receiving equipment. These alone may be insufficient to remove static electricity. Avoid
contact with skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Heated material can
cause thermal burns.
Hazards not otherwise : Static accumulating flammable liquid can become electrostatically charged even in
classified bonded and grounded equipment. Sparks may ignite liquid and vapor may cause flash
fire or explosion. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry skin and cause irritation. May
release hydrogen sulfide a poisonous gas that can accumulate in confined spaces.
Inhalation : Harmful if inhaled. Mist/high concentrations: Inhalation may cause irritation to the nose,
throat, upper respiratory tract and lungs.
Skin contact : Defatting to the skin. May cause skin dryness and irritation.
Ingestion : May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways.
Over-exposure signs/symptoms
Eye contact : No specific data.
Inhalation : reduced fetal weight; increase in fetal deaths; skeletal malformations; respiratory tract
irritation; coughing
Skin contact : irritation; dryness; cracking; reduced fetal weight; increase in fetal deaths; skeletal
malformations
Ingestion : nausea or vomiting; reduced fetal weight; increase in fetal deaths; skeletal
malformations
Specific hazards arising : Combustible liquid. This product is a poor conductor of electricity and can become
from the chemical electrostatically charged. If sufficient charge is accumulated, ignition of flammable
mixtures can occur. To reduce potential for static discharge, use proper bonding and
grounding procedures. This liquid may accumulate static electricity when filling properly
grounded containers. Static accumulation may be significantly increased by the
presence of small quantities of water or other contaminants. In a fire or if heated, a
pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a subsequent
explosion. The vapor/gas is heavier than air and will spread along the ground. Vapors
may accumulate in low or confined areas or travel a considerable distance to a source
of ignition and flash back. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. May
release hydrogen sulfide a poisonous gas that can accumulate in confined spaces.
Hazardous thermal : Decomposition products may include the following materials:
decomposition products carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
Special protective actions : Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
for fire-fighters there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable
training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Special protective : Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing
equipment for fire-fighters apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.

Environmental precautions : Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

Conditions for safe storage, : Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area.
including any Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-
incompatibilities ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink.
Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep container tightly
closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled
containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
Appropriate engineering : Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation
controls or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below
any recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas,
vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof
ventilation equipment. May release hydrogen sulfide a poisonous gas that can
accumulate in confined spaces.
Environmental exposure : Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
controls they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will
be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.

Respiratory protection : Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be
based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe
working limits of the selected respirator.
Possibility of hazardous : Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous reactions will not occur.
reactions
Conditions to avoid : Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame). Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind or expose containers to heat or sources of ignition. Do not
allow vapor to accumulate in low or confined areas.
Hazardous decomposition : Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous decomposition products should
products not be produced.
