SECTION V HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION |
Effect of Overexposure: excessive high temperature may produce irritating vapor. During normal processing a small amount of vapor will be evolved. Over long term, respiratory problems may occur unless adequate ventilation.
First aid:
Eye Contact: flush with water for 15 minutes.
Skin Contact: wash skin with soap and water.
Inhalation: if excessive fumes, remove to fresh air.
Ingestion: consult physician.
V.O.C. EMISSIONS: 0.32 lbs per gallon or 40 grams per liter (maximum); 0.32 lbs per gallon or 40 grams per liter (maximum) less water and less exempt compounds.
Primary routes of entry into the body: Skin absorption and inhalation of fumes during heat processing.
SECTION VI. REACTIVITY DATA
