*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:IF WORKPLACE EXPOSURE LIMIT(S) OF PROD/ANY
    COMPONENT IS EXCEEDED, A NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD AIR SUPPLIED RESP IS
    ADVISED IN ABSENCE OF PROPER ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL. OSHA REGS ALSO
    PERMIT OTHER NIOSH/MSHA AP PRVD RESPIRATORS UNDER SPECIFIED (ING 3)
Ventilation:MATERIAL MUST BE HANDLED OR TRANSFERRED IN AN APPROVED FUME
    HOOD OR WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
Other Protective Equipment:EYE WASH AND SAFETY EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE
    READILY AVAILABLE.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. DO NOT TAKE
    INTERNALLY.
Supplemental Safety and Health
FIRST AID PROC:WATER. GET IMMED MED ATTN. OTHER PREC:STATIC DISCHARGE,
    SMOKING, HEATERS/ELECTRIC MOTORS AT LOCATIONS DISTANT FROM MATERIAL
    HANDLING POINT. NEVER USE WELING/CUTTING TORCH ON OR NEAR DRU M,
    EVEN EMPTY, BECAUSE PROD, OR RESIDUE, CAN IGNITE EXPLOSIVELY. EMPTY
    CNTNRS ARE HAZ DUE TO RETAINED RESIDUE.

Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:NO  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES    IARC:YES  OSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:FORMALDEHYDE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
    CAUSE CANCER IN HUMANS. REPEATED AND PROLONGED EXPOSURE INCREASES
    THE RISK. IN HUMANS, FORMALDEHYDE EXPOSURE HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH
    CANCERS OF THE LUNGS, NASOPHARYN X AND OROPHARYNX, AND NASAL
    PASSAGES. HARMFUL IF INHALED, SWALLOWED, OR ABSORBED THROUGH THE
    SKIN. (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:FORMALDEHYDE: GROUP 2A (IARC),
    ANTICIPATED TO BE A CARCINOGEN (NTP), OSHA REGULATED.
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: EYE CONTACT MAY CAUSE PERMANENT
    DAMAGE. MAY CAUSE BLINDNESS IF SWALLOWED. SEVERE SKIN IRRITANT AND
    A SENSITIZER. DEATHS FROM ACCIDENTAL EXPOSURE TO HIGH
    CONCENTRATIONS OF FORMALDEHYDE HAS BE EN REPORTED.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:RESPIRATORY CONDITIONS.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:GET IMMED MED ASSISTANCE FOR ALL CASES OF OVEREXP. SKIN:WASH
    THORO W/SOAP & WATER. REMOVE CONTAM CLTHG AT ONCE (LAUNDER BEFORE
    REUSE); DISCARD CONTAM SHOES. EYES:IMMED FLUSH THORO W/WATER FOR AT
    HAS STOPPED. INGEST:IF CONSCIOUS, DILUTE, INACTIVATE, OR ABSORB THE
    INGESTED FORMALDEHYDE BY GIVING MILK, ACTIVATED CHARCOAL, OR (SUPP
    DATA)
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Flash Point Method:CC
Lower Limits:7.0 %
Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL, "ALCOHOL FOAM", CARBON DIOXIDE. WATER
    SPRAY TO COOL EXPOSED CONTAINERS AND DISPERSE VAPORS.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SCBA AND FULL
    PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:MODERATE FIRE & EXPLO HAZ. FORMALDEHYDE
    REACTS W/NITROGEN DIOXIDE, NITROMETHANE, PERCHLORIC ACID AND
    ANILINE, OR PEROXYFORMIC ACID TO YIELD EXPLOSIVE COMPOUNDS.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:DIKE SPILL, TAKE UP WITH ABSORBENT AND
    CONTAINERIZE FOR PROPER DISPOSAL. EM SCIENCE SPILL-X NEUTRALIZER
    AND ABSORBENT AGENTS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR CHEMICAL SPILLS.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP CNTNR TIGHTLY CLOSED. PROT
    AGAINST PHYSICAL DMG. DO NOT BREATHE VAPOR/SOLN MIST. DO NOT GET IN
Other Precautions:SEPARATE FROM OXIDIZING & ALKALINE MATERIAL. INDOOR
    STORAGE SHOULD HAVE FLOORS PITCHED TOWARD TRAPPED DRAIN OR STORE IN
    CURBED RETENTION AREA. VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY TRAVEL
    AND BE IGNITED  BY PILOT LIGHTS, SPARKS, (SUPP DATA)
