HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW HMIS: Physical state: Liquid HEALTH: 3 Color: Green FLAMMABILITY: 0 Odor: Sharp PHYSICAL HAZARD: 0 Personal Protection: See MSDS Section 8 DANGER -- CORROSIVE!: CAUSES EYE, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT BURNS. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS. Relevant routes of exposure: Skin, Inhalation, Eyes Potential Health Effects Inhalation: Skin contact: Eye contact: Ingestion: Existing conditions aggravated by exposure: Severe respiratory tract irritation. Inhalation of high vapor concentrations may produce respiratory irritation, and may cause central nervous system (CNS) depression. Chronic inhalation overexposure may produce kidney or bladder damage. This product may cause an allergic skin reaction. Corrosive to the skin. Contact with the skin or mucous membranes may cause severe irritation and burns. Causes eye burns. Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion may produce burns to the lips, oral cavity, upper airway, esophagus and possibly the digestive tract. Eye, skin and respiratory disorders. Kidney disorders. This material is considered hazardous by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR ). See Section 11 for additional toxicological information. 3. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Hazardous components CAS NUMBER % Benzyl alcohol Benzyl formate Formic acid Benzene, C10-16-alkyl derivitives Mercaptobenzothiazole FIRST AID MEASURES Inhalation: If mist or vapor of this product is inhaled, remove person immediately to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms develop or persist. Page 1 of 5

2 Skin contact: For skin contact flush with large amounts of water. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists. Eye contact: In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes, and seek immediate medical attention. Ingestion: Notes to physician: DO NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Give one to two glasses of water or milk. Never give anything by mouth to a victim who is unconscious or is having convulsions. No information available. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash point: Autoignition temperature: Flammable/Explosive limits - lower: Flammable/Explosive limits - upper: Extinguishing media: Special firefighting procedures: Unusual fire or explosion hazards: Hazardous combustion products: > 93.3 C (> F) Cleveland open cup Use media appropriate for surrounding material. Wear full protective clothing. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. This product is an aqueous mixture which will not burn. Upon decomposition, this product emits carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and/or low molecular weight hydrocarbons. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Use personal protection recommended in Section 8, isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Environmental precautions: Clean-up methods: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Contain spill. Ventilate area. Do not allow product to enter sewer or waterways. Isolate area. Keep unnecessary personnel away. Collect spilled material with an inert absorbent such as sand or vermiculite. Place in properly labeled closed container. Dispose of according to Federal, State and local governmental regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Storage: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapors or mists of this product. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not reuse the empty container. Keep the container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place. Protect from freezing. For information on product shelf life, please review labels on container or check the Technical Data Sheet. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Employers should complete an assessment of all workplaces to determine the need for, and selection of, proper exposure controls and protective equipment for each task performed.
