SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
3.1 EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Odor, Color, Grade: transparent, citrus odor
General Physical Form: Liquid
Immediate health, physical, and environmental hazards: Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and
explode. Vapors may travel long distances along the ground or floor to an ignition source and flash back. Combustible liquid and
vapor. May cause severe eye irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction. May cause target organ effects.

Eye Contact:
Severe Eye Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include significant redness,
swelling, pain, tearing, cloudy appearance of the cornea, and impaired
vision.
Skin Contact:
Moderate Skin Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include localized redness,
swelling, itching, and dryness. Prolonged or repeated exposure may
cause:
Allergic Skin Reaction (non-photo induced): Signs/symptoms may include redness, swelling, blistering, and itching.
May be absorbed through skin and cause target organ effects.
Inhalation:Upper
Respiratory Tract Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include cough,
sneezing, nasal discharge, headache, hoarseness, and nose and throat
pain. May be absorbed following inhalation and cause target organ
effects.
Ingestion:Gastrointestinal
Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea
and vomiting, May be absorbed following ingestion and cause target
organ effects.

Central Nervous System (CNS) Depression:
Signs/symptoms may include headache, dizziness, drowsiness,
incoordination, nausea, slowed reaction time, slurred speech, giddiness,
and unconsciousness.
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1 FIRST AID PROCEDURES
The following first aid
recommendations are based on an assumption that appropriate personal and
industrial hygiene practices are followed.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact:
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush skin with
large amounts of water. Get medical attention. Wash contaminated
clothing and clean shoes before reuse.
Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air.
If Swallowed:Do
not induce vomiting. Give victim two glasses of water. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get immediate medical
attention.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES
Autoignition temperature No Data Available

Flammable Limits – LEL No Data Available
Flammable Limits – UEL No Data Available
5.2 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Use fire extinguishers with class B extinguishing agents (e.g., dry chemical, carbon dioxide).
5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
containers and surfaces cool and prevent explosive rupture. Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:
travel long distances along the ground or floor to an ignition source and flash back. Combustible liquid and vapor.
Note: See STABILITY AND REACTIVITY (SECTION 10) for hazardous combustion and thermal decomposition
information.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Evacuate unprotected and
untrained personnel from hazard area. The spill should be cleaned up by
qualified personnel. Remove all ignition sources such as flames, smoking
materials, and electrical spark sources. Use only non-sparking tools.
Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in
confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or exhaust
vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A
motor could be an ignition source and could cause flammable gases or
vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Contain spill. For larger
spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems
or bodies of water. Working from around the edges of the spill inward,
cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially available inorganic
absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry.
Remember, adding an absorbent material does not remove a toxic,
corrosivity or flammability hazard. Collect as much of the spilled
material as possible using non-sparking tools. Clean up residue with
detergent and water. Collect the resulting residue containing solution.
Place in a metal container approved for transportation by appropriate
authorities. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as soon
as possible. In the event of a release of this material, the user should
determine if the release qualifies as reportable according to
local, state, and federal regulations.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 HANDLING

protective clothing manufacturer for selection of appropriate compatible
materials. Gloves made from the following material(s) are recommended:
Butyl Rubber, Neoprene, Nitrile Rubber, Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA).
8.2.3 Respiratory Protection

National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency
response personnel to address the hazards that are presented by
short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire,
spill, or similar emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the
inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are
known to be generated in significant quantities.
