=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: INHALATION: MAY CAUSE
    RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. COUGHING AND CHEST PAIN MAY RESULT.
    SKIN: MAY CAUSE STRONG IRRITATION, REDNESS. EYES: MODERATE TO
    SEVERE EYE IRRITANT. CONCENTRATED VAPORS CA N BE ABSORBED IN EYE
    TISSUE AND CAUSE EYE INJURY. CONTACT CAUSES IRRITATION, REDNESS AND
    DISCOMFORT AND POSSIBLE CORNEAL INJURY OR CONJUNCTIVITIS.
    INGESTION: SINGLE DOSE ORAL TOXICITY IS MODERATE. MAY  CAUSE
    GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IRRITATION AND PAIN. CHRONIC: INHALATION:
    MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION, COUGHING, SORE THROAT,
    SHORTNESS OF BREATH OR CHEST PAIN. (EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE)
Effects of Overexposure:HEALTH HAZARDS: SKIN: PROLONGED OR REPEATED
    CONTACT MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION AND POSSIBLE SENSITIZATION
    IN SUSCEPTIBLE INDIVIDUALS. MAY BE ABSORBED IN HARMFUL AMOUNTS.
    SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE:  RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. SKIN
    IRRITATION AND REDNESS. POSSIBLE ALLERGIC REACTION SEEN AS HIVES
    AND RASH. EYE IRRITATION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:CHRONIC RESPIRATORY DISEASE,
    ASTHMA. EYE DISEASE. SKIN DISORDERS AND ALLERGIES.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:EYES: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES.
    GET PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING.
    IMMEDIATELY WASH SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER. DO NOT APPLY GREASES OR
    OINTMEN TS. INHALATION: MOVE TO FRESH AIR AND CONSULT PHYSICIAN IF
    EFFECTS OCCUR. INGESTION: GIVE CONSCIOUS PERSON AT LEAST 2 GLASSES
    OF WATER. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF VOMITING SHOULD OCCUR
    SPONTANEOUSLY,  KEEP AIRWAY CLEAR. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point Method:PMCC
Flash Point:>132.2C, 270.F
Extinguishing Media:WATER FOG, ALCOHOL FOAM, CARBON DIOXIDE (CO*2), DRY
    CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
    EQUIPMENT . IF SPILL HAS IGNITED, USE WATER SPRAY TO DISPERSE
    VAPORS AND PROTECT PERSONNEL ATTEMPTING TO STOP LEAK. USE WATER TO
    COOL FIRE-EXPOSED CO NTAINERS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:WHEN MIXED WITH SAWDUST, WOOD CHIPS, OR
    OTHER CELLULOSIC MATERIAL, SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION CAN OCCUR UNDER
    CERTAIN CONDITIONS. IF HARDENER IS SPILLED INTO OR MIXED WITH
    SAWDUST, HEAT IS GENERATED AS TH E AIR OXIDIZES THE AMINE. IF THE
    HEAT IS NOT DISSIPATED QUICKLY ENOUGH, IT CAN IGNITE THE SAWDUST.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:STOP LEAK W/OUT ADDNL RISK. WEAR PROPER PERS
    PROT EQUIP. DIKE & CONTAIN SPILL. VENT AREA. LGE SPILL: DIKE & PUMP
    INTO APPROP CONTR FOR RECOVERY. SML SPILL: DILUTE W/WATER &
    RECOVER/USE INERT, NON-COMB UST ABSORB MATL (E.G., SAND) & SHOVEL
    INTO SUITABLE CONTR. DO NOT USE SAWDUST, WOOD CHIPS/OTHER
    CELLULOSIC MATLS TO ABSORB SPILL, AS POSS FOR SPONT COMBUT EXISTS.

    VENTILATION TO MEET EXPOSURE LIMITS. IN POORLY VENTILATED AREAS,
    USE A NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR WITH AN ORGANIC VAPOR CARTRIDGE.
Ventilation:USE WITH ADEQUATE GENERAL AND LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION TO
    MEET EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:LIQUID-PROOF, CHEM RESIST GLOVES (NITRILE-BUTYL RUBB,
    BUTYL RUBB/NATURAL RUBB).
Eye Protection:ANSI APPROVED CHEMICAL WORKERS GOGGLES .
Other Protective Equipment:EYEWASH AND DELUGE SHOWER MEETING ANSI
    DESIGN CRITERIA . WEAR FULL BODY-COVERING CLOTHING.
