2 Propylene Glycol Diacetate Page Number: Section 4. First Aid Measures Eye Contact Skin Contact Serious Skin Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Cold water may be used.wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention. Inhalation Serious Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention. Ingestion Serious Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical attention if symptoms appear. Section 5. Fire and Explosion Data Flammability of the Product Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Points Flammable Limits Products of Combustion Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Combustible C (808 F) CLOSED CUP: 87 C (188.6 F). These products are carbon oxides (CO, CO). Slightly flammable to flammable in presence of open flames and sparks, of heat. Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Risks of explosion of the product in presence of static discharge: Fire Fighting Media and Instructions Fire Hazards Explosion Hazards SMALL FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam. Do not use water jet. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. Section 6. Accidental Release Measures Small Spill Large Spill Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. Combustible material. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Stop leak if without risk. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system.

3 Propylene Glycol Diacetate Page Number: 3 Section 7. Handling and Storage Precautions Storage Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe gas/fumes/ vapor/spray. Avoid contact with eyes. Wear suitable protective clothing. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, reducing agents. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame). Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are proximal to the work-station location. Splash goggles. Lab coat. Gloves. Respiratory protection is not necessary for normal handling since this material has a low vapor pressure. Adequate general (room) ventilation or local exhaust (fume hood) is sufficient. Use a vapor respirator under conditions where exposure to the substance is apparent (e.g. generation of high concentrations of mist or vapor, inadequate ventilation, development of respiratory tract irritation), and engineering controls are not feasible. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Splash goggles. Full suit. Boots. Gloves. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product. Section 9. Physical and Chemical Properties Physical state and appearance Liquid.

Stability and Data Stability Instability Temperature Conditions of Instability Incompatibility with various substances Corrosivity The product is stable. Excess heat, incompatible materials. Reactive with oxidizing agents, reducing agents. Corrosivity Polymerization Will not occur. Section 11. Toxicological Information Routes of Entry Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans Other Toxic Effects on Humans Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans other Toxic Effects on Humans Skin contact. Eye contact. Acute oral toxicity (LD50): 340 mg/kg [Guinea pig]. Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation. Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause mild skin irritation. May cause dermatitis. Eyes: Causes moderate eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. Inhalation: Inhalation of mist or vapor may cause respiratory tract irritation. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system depression. The vapor pressure of this material is low (below 1 mm 0 deg. C) therefore it poses only a slight inhalation hazard. Ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. May affect behavior/central nervous system (general anesthetic), urinary system. Section 1. Ecological Information Ecotoxicity BOD5 and COD Products of Biodegradation Toxicity of the Products of Biodegradation the Products of Biodegradation Possibly hazardous short term degradation products are not likely. However, long term degradation products may arise. The product itself and its products of degradation are not toxic.
