EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID INFORMATION
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Call a physician.
Sldm In case of contact, immediately wash sldn with soap and plenty of water. If irritation develops, consult a physician.
Inhalation: If Inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician.
Notes to Physician: Gastric lavage by qualified medical personnel may be considered, depending on quantity of material ingested.
SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION
In Case of Spin or Leak: Evacuate areas downwind of release. Extinguish all ignition sources. If released indoors, evacuate building until vapors have been cleared.
NOTE: Review FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS before proceeding with clean up. Use appropriate PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT during clean up.
Waste Disposal Method: If spilled as liquid, this product will evaporate completely. Vapors should be dispersed mechanically, if possible. 'Treatment, storage, transportation and disposal must be in accordance with applicable Federal, State/Provintial, and Local regulations.
PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
Respiratory Protection: No occupational standards for airborne concentrations have been developed for this material. MTBE has a very low odor threshold (approximately 4 ppm), which may be offensive to some individuals. NIOSH-approved respiratory protection is recommended where exposure through inhalation may occur. Due to the relatively fast breakthrough of MTBE for respirators with organic vapor cartridges and because of its low odor threshold, it is recommended that a full-facepiece respirator with organic vapor canister be used.
Ventilation: General mechanical ventilation normally adequate.
Protective Gloves: Neoprene or vinyl gloves are recommended to minimize skin exposure.
Eye Protection! Face shield recommended where splashing can occur.
Other Protective Equipment: Sufficient to minimize skin exposure. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Extremely contaminated leather shoes should be discarded.
Safety Precautions; Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing.

convulsions*
The product contains petroleum hydrocarbons and, as with many petroleum products, it may cause irritation to the eyes, lungs, or skin after prolonged or repeated exposure.
It is highly unlikely that human exposure at or below the recommended exposure level poses a significant health hazard. In this regard, good workplace practices and proper engineering designs will minimise exposure. Animal studies show that prolonged or repeated inhalation exposure to high concentrations of some petroleum distillates has caused adverse kidney effects in male rats. However, kidney effects were not seen in similar studies involving female rats, guinea pigs, dogs, or monkeys* Also, human studies do not indicate this peculiar sensitivity for kidney damage. The significance of liver tumors in mice is highly speculative and not a good indicator for predicting a potential human health hazard.
Carcinogenicity
None of the components m this material is listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA, or ACGIH as a carcinogen.
