Section 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Irritating to skin. Risk of serious damage to eyes.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Amines have been known to cause skin irritation and sensitization.
Ingestion:
May cause severe irritation of the digestive tract.
Inhalation:
May cause severe respiratory tract irritation. Material has a low vapor pressure, so exposure to vapor is not likely.
Chronic:
Not available.

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.

Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. This material in sufficient quantity and reduced particle size is capable of creating a dust explosion.
Extinguishing Media:
In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or alcohol-resistant foam.
