DOT/CERCLA:
The DOT/CERCLA reportable quantity (RQ) for this product is 8820 gallons based on FORMALDEHYDE RQ 100 lbs.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Evacuate all unnecessary personnel. Use full protective equipment. Including self-contained breathing apparatus. Use water spray, preferably fog, to cool closed containers to prevent pressure build-up and possible explosion. Direct water stream is not recommended for all base fires. Product may float and reignite on surface of water. Do not allow product or runoff from fire control to enter storm or sanitary sewers, lakes, rivers, streams or waterways.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Explosive air-vapor mixtures may form which are dangerous when exposed to heat or flame. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground, or be moved by ventilation, and ignited by pilot lights, stoves, heaters, electric motors, sparks, flame, smoking, static discharge or other ignition sources even at locations distant from material handling sit. Free falling streams of liquid may cause static electricity build-up and create fire hazard.

CONDITIONS TO AVOID: High temperature and humidity, ignition sources, vapor build-up.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID):
Strong oxidizing agents, Acids, Alkalis, Chlerinated compounds, Aluminum, aldehydes, Halogen compounds, Amines, Isobutylene, Perchlorates.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS:
Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide, Hydrocarbons, Nitrogen oxides, Toxic materials.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION
Will not occur.
SECTION VI – HEALTH HAZARD DATA
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF EXPOSURE: Inhalation, skin contact.
ACUTE EFFECTS FROM SHORT TERM EXPOSURE
Inhalation: Vapors and mists cause severe irritation to nose, throat and lungs (burning, stinging, coughing). May cause headache, dizziness, nausea, weakness, shortness of breath and loss of coordination. Exposure to extremely high vapor concentrations may cause unconsciousness and auphyxlation. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal.
Eye Contact: Contact with liquid or vapors causes severe irritation (redness, watering, itching, stinging, blurred vision) and possible cornea damage.
Skin Contact: Contact causes severe irritation (dryness, itching, cracking, rash, swelling) and possible burns. May cause allergic skin reaction (contact dermatitis).
Skin Absorption: May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Symptoms may include headache, dizziness, nausea, weakness, or loss of coordination.
Swallowing: Causes nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and central nervous system depression (headache, dizziness, giddiness, nausea, loss of coordination.
CHRONIC EFFECTS FROM LONG TERM/REPEATED EXPOSURE
Long-term or repeated overexposure, without proper ventilation or personal protection, may cause damage to: kidneys, liver, eyes, brain and nervous system, blood cell abnormalities, possible hearing loss.
OTHER
Exposure to formaldehyde may cause sensitization and allergic skin reaction resulting in contact dermatitis. Some reports also suggest sensitization and allergic respiratory reaction resulting in asthma-like symptoms. Always wear appropriate respiratory and skin protection during use. Ventilate well during and after application.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS
Respiratory tract irritation, nausea, skin and eye disorders, sensitization to chemical substances.
WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
SECTION VII – EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
SWALLOWING: If person is conscious, give ½ glass of milk or water. DO NOT induce vomiting. Call Poison Center, Emergency Room or Physician immediately. Note: Aspiration of solvents may result in chemical pneumonia
INHALATION: Remove from exposure to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. Keep person warm and quiet. Get medical attention immediately.
EYE: Immediately flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes, while lifting upper and lower eyelids. Get medical attention.
SKIN: Immediately remove by wiping, followed by waterless hand cisoner and plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash or clean thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
OTHER: Have MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET available. If possible, when calling Poison Center, Emergency Room or Physician.
SECTION VIII – PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Use NIOSH approved cartridge respirator to keep vapor/mist levels of hazardous ingredients (listed in Section II) below the occupational exposure limits (PEL & TLV). If exposure levels are unknown, or limits exceeded, use full face piece air purifying cartridge respirator for organic vapors and mists. Use filters to avoid breathing spray particles or sanding dusts. Follow respirator manufacturer’s instructions.
VENTILATION: Provide general mechanical ventilation or local exhaust to keep vapor concentrations below the PEL’s and TLV’s in Section II and Lower Flammable Limits in Section IV.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Wear impermeable gloves to prevent skin contact. Consult safety equipment supplier for specific recommendation of construction material.
EYE PROTECTION: Wear chemical goggles designed to protect eyes against vapors, liquid splash and mists unless full face piece respirator is worn. Note: Contact lenses may contribute to the severity of an eye injury and should not be worn when working with chemicals.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT: Wear protective clothing, including head caps, to avoid skin contact with liquid or overspray.
WORK / HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Eye washes and safety showers are recommended in the workplace. Wash hands after using and before eating, drinking, or using tobacco products. Thoroughly clean contaminated clothing and shoes before reuse. Periodically monitor exposure levels to hazardous ingredients listed in Section II and review permissible limits.
SECTION IX – SPILLAGE OR LEAK PROCEDURE
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Eliminate ignition sources and ventilate area. Evacuate all unnecessary personnel. Wear full protective equipment. Dike drains to prevent entering storm or sanitary sewers, lakes, rivers, streams, or waterways. Contain spill and cover with inert absorbent material. Take up using non-sparkling tools (aluminum, brass, or copper) and place mixture into containers for disposal. Note: Some spills or releases may require special reporting to local, state, or federal agencies.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Waste material and empty containers must be disposed of in accordance with all local, state and federal environmental control regulations. Use only approved waste management facilities.
