Potential Health Effects
     The toxicological properties of this material have not been
     investigated. Use appropriate procedures to prevent opportunities
     for direct contact with the skin or eyes and to prevent inhalation.

                    **** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****

     Eyes:
          Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
          occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids.
     Skin:
          Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
          removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
     Ingestion:
          Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
          drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
     Inhalation:
          Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately.
     Notes to Physician:

                  **** 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.
     Extinguishing Media:
          In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or
          alcohol-resistant foam.

                **** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****

     General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
                          in Section 8.
     Spills/Leaks:
          Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
          Equipment section. Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for
          disposal.

                   **** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****

     Handling:
          Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
          wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid
          ingestion and inhalation.
     Storage:
          Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed when not in use.

          **** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****

     Engineering Controls:
          Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne
          concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. Use process
          enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls
          to control airborne levels.
     Personal Protective Equipment

                 Eyes:
                       Wear safety glasses and chemical goggles if splashing
                       is possible.
                 Skin:
                       Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to
                       prevent skin exposure.
             Clothing:
                       Wear appropriate protective clothing to minimize
                       contact with skin.
          Respirators:
                       Wear a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149
                       approved full-facepiece airline respirator in the
                       positive pressure mode with emergency escape
                       provisions.
