Percentage: 30 to 70% with non-hazardous diluents.

Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wipe off excess material from skin then immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Note to physicians: Product is a corrosive material. Use of gastric lavage or emesis is contra-indicated. Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should be investigated. Do not give chemical antidotes. Asphyxia from glottal oedema may occur. Marked decrease in blood pressure may occur with frothy sputum, and high pulse pressure.

Flammability of the Product: Flammable.
Auto-Ignition Temperature: SADT: 70C.
Flash Points: 82C
Products of Combustion: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, fumes.
Fire: Inflammable.
Explosion: Explosive in presence of heat.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use Water spray, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Dry powder and Sand for extinction. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Water spray or fog is preferred; if water not available use dry chemical, CO2 or regular foam. Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Never direct a water jet in the container in order to prevent any splashing of the product which could cause spreading of the fire. Cool containing vessels with water jet in order to prevent pressure build-up, auto-ignition or explosion.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. At high temperatures it may produce toxic or irritating fumes. These substances will accelerate burning when involved in a fire. Some may burn rapidly with flare burning effect. Some may decompose explosively when heated or involved in a fire. May ignite combustibles (wood paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating and toxic gases and vapors.

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc).
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment Cleanup procedures and Storage:
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided. Remove all sources of ignition. Provide proper ventilation. Absorb the material on a porous, inert material such as earth, sand or vermiculite. Carefully sweep solid/powder up the material without causing dust. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations. The spillage should be transferred to a suitable container and recovered or disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Because of the danger of spontaneous combustion, any combustible material, such as cloth, used for cleaning spillages, should be saturated with water and disposed of promptly, preferably by incineration.

Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust/mist/vapor is formed. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat or smoke while handling. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc). Prevent any contact with hot surfaces.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Do not leave the material container open. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents, strong reducing agents, strong acids, strong bases, powdered metals and organic materials.
Keep the product in its original container well sealed, in a dry and ventilated area, away from potential sources of ignition and protected from light. Protect against physical damage. Recommended storage temperature 2C - 8C. Avoid heating above: 30C.

Airborne Exposure Limits: Not Established. Keep it below 0.2 ppm. Provide adequate ventilation.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping in work area. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
