Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES
Skin: YES
Ingestion: YES
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO
IARC: NO
OSHA: NO
Effects of Exposure: NO ACUTE OR CHRONIC HAZARDS OR EFFECTS ARE KNOWN. EYE
  CONTACT: NOT A PROBABLE ROUTE OF EXPOSURE. PARTICULATES MAY SCRATCH EYE
  SURFACE OR CAUSE IRRITATION. SKIN CONTACT: A SINGLE PROLONGED EXPOSURE IS 
  NOT LIKELY TO RESULT IN MATERIAL BEING ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN IN HARMFUL
  AMOUNTS. REPEATED PROLONGED EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE MILD SKIN IRRITATION IN SOME
  INDIVIDUALS. EXPOSURE TO HOT MATERIALS MAY CAUSE  THERMAL BURNS. INGESTION:
  NOT A PROBABLE ROUTE OF EXPOSURE. INHALATION: NOT A PROBABLE ROUTE OF
  EXPOSURE UNDER CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE. HOT FUMES/VAPORS WHICH MAY FORM
  DURING PROCESSING CAN CAUSE IR RITATION TO THE UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT.
Explanation Of Carcinogenicity: CARCINOGENICITY: NONE REPORTED
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: SEE HEALTH HAZARDS (FP N).
Medical Cond Aggravated By Exposure: SOME INDIVIDUALS WITH SPECIFIC
  SENSITIVITIES MAY EXIBIT EYE, NOSE, THROAT OR THERMAL IRRITATION WITH
  PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO PROCESSING FUMES OR VAPORS.
First Aid: EYE CONTACT: REMOVE AS FOR ANY FOREIGN OBJECT. FLUSH WITH CLEAN
  CONTACT: WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF THERMAL IRRITATION, F LUSH AFFECTED
  AREA WITH COLD WATER TO DISSIPATE HEAT, THEN COVER WITH CLEAN COTTON SHEETING
  OR GAUZE AND GET PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION.  INHALATION: IF FUMES/VAPORS ARE
  INHALED, MOVE TO FRESH AIR, AID  BREATHING IF NECESSARY. OBTAIN MEDICAL
  ATTENTION IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.  INGESTION: UNLIKELY TO OCCUR.
