June 30, 1989 M. Hross CL-OTM In addition to the comments on the body of the attached MSDS, we are sending some toxicity data on 10G which is not identified on the components list, but only in the product name. Is the hydrochloric acid percentage given the amount which remains after the neutralization of sodium hydroxide in 10G? There would appear to be little or no room for 10G on the basis of the amount of ethyl acetate and hydrochloric acid and if the amount is low enough, then the toxicity data on 10G will not apply. 90630-5/jp BFG18867 22113001 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET 10G in Ethyl Acetate Experimental Sample N'o . : Issued: June 16, 1989 Supersedes: New Issue Written by: M.

Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical or alcohol foam Special Firefighting Procedure: Water is not generally suitable for fires involving this material. Water spray be used to absorb heat, keep containers cool and protect exposed materials. Firefighters should wear a selfcontained breathing apparatus in positive-pressure mode. can Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: None known. Section V - Health Hazard Data Threshold Limit Value: N.E. BFG18869 10G in Ethyl Acetate Pa?p 3 Pr iroarv Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, skin contact Effects of Overexposure: Acute: Inhalation of the product can cause irritation of the skin, nose and throat at 400 ppm. Higher exposures can produce headache, dizziness and a feeling of intoxication. Can cause collapse, coma and death from massive exposures (over 10,000 ppm). Chronic: Prolonged and repeated contacted with the product can cause dermatitis. Medical Conditions Aggravated bv Exposure: N.E. Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, properly trained personnel should begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) immediately. Obtain immediate medical attention. Eve Contact: - Gently blot or brush away excess chemical quickly^ Immediately flush the contaminated eye ('S') with lukewarm, gently flowing water for 20 minutes, by the clock, holding the eyelid(s) open. If irritation persists, obtain medical attention immediately. Skin Contact: ' Remove contaminated clothing, shoes and leather goods, e.g., watchbands, belts. Gently blot or brush away excess chemical quickly. Wash gently and thoroughly with water and non-abrasive soap. If irritation persists, obtain medical attention immediately. Completely decontaminate clothing, shoes and leather goods before re use or discard. Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth if victim is rapidly losing consciousness or is unconscious or convulsing. Have victim rinse mouth thoroughly with water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Have victim drink 240 to 300 ml (8 to 10 oz.) of water to dilute material in stomach. If vomiting occurs naturally, rinse mouth and repeat administration of water. Obtain medical attention immediately. / / frOOETTZZ BFG18870 10G in Ethyl Acetate Page 4 Section VT - Reactivity Stability: Stable Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Ethanol and acetic acid may be produced if water is present. Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons Section VII - Spill or Leak Procedure Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled: Restrict access to area until completion of the cleanup. Insure cleanup is conducted by trained personnel only. Provide adequate personal protective equipment. Ventilate the area. Eliminate all ignition sources. Notify government environmental agencies if release of material into the environment occurs. Do not touch spilled material. Stop or reduce leak if safe to do so. Prevent material entering sewers or confined spaces. Small spills: Take up with inert sorbent material. Place in a suitable, covered, labeled container. Flush area with water. Large spills: Dike with earth, sand, or inert sorbent material to contain the spill. Remove liquid by pumps or vacuum equipment. Place in a suitable, covered, labeled container. Take up residual with inert sorbent material and place in a suitable, covered, labeled container. Flush area with water. Waste disposal method: Review federal, state and local governmental requirements prior to disposal. Disposal controlled incineration or secure landfill may be acceptable. by Section VIII - Special Protection Information Ventilation: Utilize explosion-proof ventilation (dilution and local exhaust). Respiratory Protection: NIOSH RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ETHYL ACETATE CONCENTRATIONS IN AIR: Up to 1000 ppm -- fullfacepiece chemical cartridge(s) or powered air-purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridges. Up to 10000 ppm -- gas mask with organic vapor canister or full-facepiece supplied-air respirator or full-facepiece self-contained 22113005 BFG18871 10G in Ethyl Acetate Page 5 breathing apparatus operated in continuous flow mode. Emergency or planned entry in unknown concentration or immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) -- positive pressure, ful1-facepiece self-contained breathing apparatus or positive pressure, full-facepiece self-contained breathing apparatus with an auxiliary positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Escape -- gas mask with organic vapor canister or escape-type self-contained breathing apparatus. Eve Protection: Chemical goggles suitable for splash protection and/or face shield Gloves: Butyl rubber Special Protective Equipment: Impervious coveralls and boots. Have a safety shower and an eyewash station readily available for emergency use. Section IX - Special Precautions Material Handling: Use in minimal quantities in designated areas with adequate ventilation. Have emergency equipment (for fires, spills and leaks) readily available. Use suitable, labeled containers kept closed when not in use and protected from damage. Empty containers may be hazardous due to residual material. Ground all drums and transfer vessels. (Grounding clips must contact bare metal.) Eliminate all ignition sources. Post "NO SMOKING" signs in areas of use. Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight and away from incompatible materials and heat and other ignition sources. Use explosion-proof ventilation and electrical equipment. Store in suitable, labeled containers kept tightly closed when not in use and protected from damage.
