SECTION 3 - HAZARD IDENTIFICATION

NOTE:
Repeated and prolonged overexposure to the mixture of solvent(s)
listed in Section 2 can result in systemic effects including
permanent brain, nervous system, liver, and kidney damage.
Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating & inhaling the
contents may be harmful or fatal.
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
Product is a beige, medium viscosity mastic.
DANGER: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE, VAPOR HARMFUL. CONTAINS TOLUENE AND
HEXANE. Vapors can cause flash fire. Vapors can ignite explosively.
Prevent buildup of vapors by opening all windows and doors to create
cross-ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Do not
smoke. Turn off stoves, heaters and sparking electronic motors. Keep
container tightly closed when not in use. Avoid prolonged breathing of
vapors. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
ROUTES OF ENTRY:
Ingestion:     Yes
Inhalation:    Yes
Skin:          Yes
Eye:           Yes
INHALATION:
Avoid breathing vapor or mists.
May cause headaches and dizziness.
High vapor concentrations are irritating to the nose, throat and
lungs and can cause systemic effects.
Vapors can readily accumulate in confined or poorly ventilated areas.
INGESTION:
Ingestion is not a probable route of exposure. Harmful if swallowed.
SKIN:
May be harmful if absorbed through skin, may produce kidney, liver and
central nervous system damage.
A single exposure is not likely to result in the material
being absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts.
EYE:
Substance may cause severe eye irritation.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:
Preexisting neurological conditions, skin disorders, and respiratory
diease.
CARCINOGENICITY:
IARC: No

NTP:  No
OSHA: No
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY:
Toluene may be harmful to the human fetus based on positive test
results with laboratory animals. Case studies show that prolonged
intentional abuse of toluene during pregnancy can cause birth defects
in humans.
TARGET ORGANS:
Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause eye, skin, respiratory
system, central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, liver and
kidney damage.

SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES

Epinepherine and other sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac
arrhythmias (irregular beating) in persons exposed to high
concentrations of hexane (e.g. in enclosed spaces or with deliberate
abuse). If used, monitor heart action closely. Consider use of other
drugs with less arrhythmogenic potential.
INHALATION:
Remove to fresh air. If difficulty persists seek medical attention.
INGESTION:
Call poison control center immediately.  Follow their specific
instructions. Do not induce vomiting.
SKIN:
Wash with soap and water.  Contact a physician if irritation develops
or persists.
EYE:
Hold eyelids apart and flush with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Seek medical attention.

SECTION 5 - FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability Class (OSHA)    IB
Flash Point:                 < 0 F
                             Setaflash
Explosive Range:             Lower explosive limit 1.2%
                             Upper explosive limit 7.5%

Flammable liquid.  Can form explosive mixtures at temperatures at or
above the flashpoint
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Use alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, water spray, or ABC dry chemical
when fighting fires involving this product.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS:
Oxides of carbon may be released during combustion.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
Wear a NIOSH approved self contained breathing apparatus. Wear
appropriate personal protective equipment.
Water may be ineffective, but may be used to cool exposed containers
to prevent pressure build-up and possible auto ignition or explosion
when exposed to extreme heat.

SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

CONTAINMENT TECHNIQUES:
Use inert absorbent to dike the spill. Keep away from drains.
CLEAN-UP:
If possible pump liquid into an approved container or spread absorbent
over spill and shovel (use non-sparking equipment) product/ absorbent
mixture into an approved container. If product has dried, scrape up
and place in an approved container.
EMERGENCY MEASURES:
Isolate hazard area.  Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering area.  Wear all appropriate personal protection equipment
(PPE) (see Section 8).

SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE

HANDLING:
Avoid breathing vapors from the headspace of containers.
Keep lid closed when not in use.
Use only in well ventilated area.
Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied.
Containers may retain product residues and vapors.
STORAGE:
Keep away from sources of ignition.
Do not store above 110F. Store large quantities in buildings designed
& protected for storage of NFPA Class 1-B flammable materials.

SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Hexane - Acute:
Ingestion of hexane can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and
diarrhea. Hexane can irritate the skin and the eyes. Acutely, the most
common toxic effects are central nervous system depression and
chemical pneumonitis resulting from aspiration into the lungs
following ingestion.
Hexane - Chronic:
Dermal irritation and central nervous system depression accompanied by
peripheral nervous system damage (polyneuropathy) are common traits of
sustained overexposure.
Toluene - Acute:
Toluene is a central nervous system depressant and skin and mucous
membrane irritant. Severe dermatitis may result from its drying and
defatting action. Toluene is an aspiration hazard causing chemical
pneumonitis.
Toluene - Chronic:
Toluene can cause cardiac sensitization. It is toxic to the kidney,
liver can cause effects on the blood system such as increased clotting
time.
Toluene may be harmful to the human fetus based on positive test
results with laboratory animals. Case studies show that prolonged
intentional abuse of toluene during pregnancy can cause birth defects
in humans.
