Section 3 - Potential Health Effects

Effects of Overexposure:
Eye Contact. Eye contact may cause slight eye irritation. Contact with dry surfactant may produce oil film causing brief reversible dimness of sight.

Skin Contact. Skin contact may cause slight irritation or drying of skin.

Inhalation. Inhalation of vapors or mists may cause respiratory tract irritation.

Ingestion. Ingestion may cause nausea and vomiting. May be slightly toxic.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures

Eye Contact: Flush eyes for 15 minutes with copious amounts of water, retracting eyelids often. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.

Skin Contact: Wash skin thoroughly with mild soap and water. Flush with lukewarm water for 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.

Inhalation: If symptoms of irritation, discomfort or overcome by exposure, remove affected person to fresh air. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as needed.

Ingestion: If conscious, drink three to four 8 ounce glasses of water or milk. Call a physician. If unconscious, immediately take affected person to a hospital. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point: Not Applicable

Lower Explosive Limit: Not Applicable

Upper Explosive Limit: Not Applicable

Autoignition Temperature: Not Applicable

Extinguishing Media: Water (spray or fog), foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2).

Unusual Fire Hazards:
Product will degrade upon prolonged heating or in a fire, producing carbonyl fluoride, hydrogen fluoride (HF), carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and silicon dioxide fumes. HF is toxic if inhaled or comes into contact with moist skin. Dried surfactant upon prolonged heating or in a fire will produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide fumes.

Fire Fighting Procedures:
Use self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and skin protection for acid gas exposure. Do not enter fire area without proper protection. Fight fire from safe distance. If possible, air monitoring should be performed.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Releases:
In case of a release or spill, absorb material onto vermiculite or similar inert absorbent. Place spilled material into covered container for disposal. Dispose of according to applicable local, state and federal regulations. Extinguish all ignition sources and evacuate the area. Exercise caution; spill area may be slippery. After area dries, wash walking surfaces with detergent and water to reduce slipping hazard.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

Wash hands after use and before handling food or applying cosmetics. Do not use tobacco products in the immediate area. Keep containers closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Do not store near combustible materials.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (8 hr. time weighted average): None established

OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (8 hr. time weighted average): None established

Engineering Controls:

Ventilation Requirements: Local Exhaust: Vent vapors or mists generated by processing away from operating personnel. Local exhaust ventilation at a rate of 50 feet per minute.

Personal Protective Equipment:

Respiratory Protection: No occupational exposure standards have been developed for this material. In situations where exposure to vapors or mists is likely, NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators are recommended. Respirator use limitations made by NIOSH/MSHA or the manufacturer must be observed. Respiratory protection programs must be in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134.

Eye/Face Protection: ANSI Z87.1 approved safety glasses with side shields or equivalent, chemical splash goggles.
Skin Protection: Rubber or latex gloves recommended.

Vapor Pressure: Not available

Vapor Density (Air=1): Not available

Boiling Point: Not available

Melting Point: Not available

Specific Gravity: 1.7-1.9

Carrier Solubility in Water: Insoluble

Surfactant Solubility in Water: Soluble

Section 10 - Stability and Reactivity

Stability:
This material is stable.

Reactivity:
This material is not reactive.

Conditions to Avoid:
Heat, sparks, flames, and other ignition sources.

Incompatibility/Materials to Avoid:
Alkali metals and halogenated compounds. Strong or non-aqueous alkali and Lewis acids.

Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Thermal decomposition of this product will generate hydrogen fluoride (HF), which is corrosive, causing burns on contact with skin and other tissue.
