SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA
FLASH POINT (METHOD USED): 330° F (PMCC)
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: MATERIALS WILL NOT BURN UNLESS PREHEATED.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
USE WATER FOG, FOAM, DRY CHEMICAL OR CO2. DO NOT USE DIRECT STREAM OF WATER. PRODUCT WILL FLOAT AND CAN BE REIGNITED ON SURFACE OF WATER.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:
FOR FIRES INVOLVING THIS MATERIAL, DO NOT ENTER ANY ENCLOSED OR CONFINED SPACE WITHOUT FULL BUNKER GEAR. RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT MUST BE WORN. COOL TANKS AND CONTAINER EXPOSED TO FIRE WITH WATER. BURNING LIQUID WILL FLOAT ON WATER. NOTIFY APPROPRIATE AUTHORITIES IF LIQUID ENTERS SEWER / WATERWAYS.
REACTIVITY
STABLE. HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION WILL NOT OCCUR.
AVOID HEAT, OPEN FLAMES, AND OXIDIZING MATERIALS.
STORE IN COOL DRY PLACE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION: THERMAL DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE
COMBUSTION CONDITIONS. A COMPLEX MIXTURE OF AIRBORNE SOLID, LIQUID, PARTICULATES AND GASES

WILL EVOLVE WHEN THIS MATERIAL UNDERGOES PYROLYSIS OR COMBUSTION. CARBON MONOXIDE AND OTHER UNIDENTIFIED ORGANIC COMPOUNDS MAY BE FORMED UPON COMBUSITON.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARDS
SUMMARY OF ACUTE HAZARDS:
NOT EXPECTED TO PRESENT A SIGNIFICANT HEALTH HAZARD UPON SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE.
NFPA HAZARD RATING: HEALTH=0 FIRE=1 REACTIVITY=0
ROUTE OF EXPOSURE - SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
INHALATION - INHALATION OF VAPORS GENERATED AT HIGH TEMPERATURES, OR OIL MIST, MAY CAUSE MILD UPPER RESPIRATORY IRRITATION.
EYE CONTACT- NO IRRITATION IS EXPECTED. FLUSH WITH WATER IF CONTACT OCCURS. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN IRRITATION - NO IRRITATION IS EXPECTED FROM SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE. REPEATED CONTACT MAY RESULT IN SKIN DISORDERS.
INGESTION - NO MORE THAN SLIGHTLY TOXIC IF INGESTED.
SPECIAL HEALTH EFFECTS - PRE-EXISTING SKIN OR RESPIRATORY DISORDERS MAY BE AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE TOTHIS PRODUCT.
SECTION VI - PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND OTHER CONTROL MEASURES
RESPIRATORY NONE IS NEEDED UNDER ANTICIPATED USE CONDITIONS WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. IF EXPOSURE EXCEEDS THE OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS, FOLLOW OSHA STANDARDS OR
EQUIVALENT AND WEAR PROPER NIOSH / MSHA - APPROVED RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENT.
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS:
NO. PEL/TWA PEL/CEILING TLV/TWA TLV/STEEL
P 5MG/M3* NONE 5MG/M3* 10MG/M3*
*OIL MIST, MINERAL
EYE SAFETY GOGGLES.
SKIN AVOID PROLONGED AND/OR REPEATED SKIN CONTACT, OR WEAR IMPERVIOUS
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. WHEN LEAVING WORK, WASH HANDS AND EXPOSED SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS USE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. KEEP OIL MISTS OF THIS MATERIAL BELOW APPLICABLE CONTROL STANDARDS. MAY USE NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR IF EXPOSURE EXCEEDS OCUUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS.
OTHER HYGIENIC AND WORK PRACTICES WASH HANDS WITH PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER BEFORE EATING. DRINKING, SMOKING, AND OR USE OF TOILET FACILITIES. DO NOT USE GASOLINE, SOLVENTS,
KEROSENE, OR HARSH ABRASIVE SKIN CLEANERS FOR WASHING EXPOSED SKIN AREAS. TAKE A SHOWER AFTER WORK IF GENERAL CONTACT OCCURS. REMOVE OIL-SOAKED CLOTHING AND LAUNDER BEFORE REUSE. LAUNDER OR DISCARD CONTAMINATED LEATHER GLOVES AND SHOES.
VII. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID:
INHALATION THIS MATERIAL IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AN INHALATION PROBLEM UNDER ANTICIPATED
CONDITIONS OF USE. IN CASE OF VAPOR EXPOSURE, MOVE PERSON TO FRESH AIR AND PROVIDE OXYGEN. IF BREATHING IS LABORED, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
EYE CONTACT FLUSH EYES WITH CLEAN, LOW-PRESSURE WATER FOR AT LEAST I5 MINUTES,
OCCASIONALLY LIFTING THE EYELIDS. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION OCCURS.
SKIN CONTACT REMOVE BY WIPING; THEN WASH SKIN THOROUGHLY WITH PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER,
REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND THOROUGHLY CLEAN BEFORE REUSE, DISCARD CONTAMINATED
LEATHER GLOVES AND SHOES. IF SKIN IRRITATION DEVELOPS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION PROMPTLY.
INGESTION DO NOT INDUCE VOMITTING. IF VOMITING OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO PREVENT
ASPIRATION OF LIQUID INTO LUNGS. GET MEDICAL ADVICE.
2
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: IF MORE THAN 2.0 ML PER KG HAS BEEN INGESTED AND VOMITING HAS NOT
OCCURRED, EMESIS SHOULD BE INDUCED. KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO PREVENT ASPIRATION. IF
SYMPTONS SUCH AS LOSS OF GAG REFLEX, CONVULSIONS OR UNCONSCIOUSNESS OCCUR BEFORE EMESIS, GASTRIC LAVAGE USING A CUFFED ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED.
VIII. SPILL AND DISPOSAL
PRECAUTIONS IF MATERIAL IS SPILLED OR RELEASED MAY BURN ALTHOUGH NOT READILY
IGNITABLE. CONTAIN SPILL AND PREVENT FROM ENTERING ALL WATER BODIES, IF POSSIBLE. WEAR
RESPIRATOR AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AS APPROPRIATE. EVACUATE NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL FROM IMMEDIATE SPILL AREA DUE TO SLIPPING HAZARDS. REMOVE WITH VACUUM TRUCKS OR PUMP TO
STORAGE/SALVAGE VESSELS. ABSORBENT MATERIALS AND PADS CAN BE USED. FLUSH WITH WATER TO REMOVE TRACE RESIDUE. COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS. SPILLS MAY NEED TO BE REPORTED TO THE NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER (800) 424-8802.
