SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA 3.1 EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Specific Physical Form: Aerosol Odor, Color, Grade: Thick white emulsion citrus odor General Physical Form: Liquid Immediate health, physical, and environmental hazards: Aerosol container contains flammable gas under pressure. Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode. Vapors may travel long distances along the ground or floor to an ignition source and flash back. May cause target organ effects.

Potential health effects

Eye Contact: Moderate Eye Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include redness, swelling, pain, tearing, and blurred or hazy vision. Skin Contact: Moderate Skin Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include localized redness, swelling, itching, and dryness. Inhalation: Intentional concentration and inhalation may be harmful or fatal. Respiratory Tract Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include cough, sneezing, nasal discharge, headache, hoarseness, and nose and throat pain. Single exposure, above recommended guidelines, may cause: Cardiac Sensitization: Signs/symptoms may include irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), faintness, chest pain, and may be fatal. May be absorbed following inhalation and cause target organ effects. Ingestion: Gastrointestinal Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include abdominal pain, stomach upset, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Target Organ Effects: Central Nervous System (CNS) Depression: Signs/symptoms may include headache, dizziness, drowsiness, incoordination, nausea, slowed reaction time, slurred speech, giddiness, and unconsciousness. SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES 4.1 FIRST AID PROCEDURES The following first aid recommendations are based on an assumption that appropriate personal and industrial hygiene practices are followed. Eye Contact: Flush eyes with large amounts of water. If signs/symptoms persist, get medical attention. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush skin with large amounts of water. Get medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing and clean shoes before reuse. Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. Get immediate medical attention. If Swallowed: Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by medical personnel. Give victim two glasses of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention. 4.2 NOTE TO PHYSICIANS Exposure may increase myocardial irritability. Do not administer sympathomimetic drugs unless absolutely necessary. SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES 5.1 FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES Autoignition temperature No Data Available Flash Point No flash point Flammable Limits(LEL) No Data Available Flammable Limits(UEL) No Data Available OSHA Flammability Classification: Not Applicable 5.2 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Material will not burn. Use fire extinguishers with class B extinguishing agents (e.g., dry chemical, carbon dioxide). 5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode. Aerosol container contains flammable material under pressure. Vapors may travel long distances along the ground or floor to an ignition source and flash back. (AEROSOL STORAGE level indicated below is based on NFPA 30B definition) Classified as Div 2.2 nonflammable aerosol based on the results of flame projection testing according to ASTM D3065. Note: See STABILITY AND REACTIVITY (SECTION 10) for hazardous combustion and thermal decomposition information. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Remove all ignition sources such as flames, smoking materials, and electrical spark sources. Use only non-sparking tools. Evacuate unprotected and untrained personnel from hazard area. The spill should be cleaned up by qualified personnel. Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or exhaust vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition source and could cause flammable gases or vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Close cylinder. If the cylinder can't be closed, place in a well-ventilated area, preferably an operating exhaust hood, or if necessary outdoors. 6.2. Environmental precautions For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or bodies of water. Place in a closed container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible. Clean-up methods Observe precautions from other sections. Call 3M- HELPS line (1-800-364-3577) for more information on handling and managing the spill. Contain spill. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible. Clean up residue with detergent and water. In the event of a release of this material, the user should determine if the release qualifies as reportable according to local, state, and federal regulations. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE 7.1 HANDLING Keep out of the reach of children. Aerosol container contains flammable gas under pressure. Avoid breathing of vapors, mists or spray. Avoid skin contact. Avoid eye contact with vapors, mists, or spray. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash exposed areas thoroughly with soap and water. Do not pierce or burn container, even after use. Do not spray near flames or sources of ignition. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flame, pilot lights and other sources of ignition. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents.

Storage

Do not store containers on their sides. Store away from heat. Store out of direct sunlight. Store away from acids. Store away from oxidizing agents. SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION 8.1 ENGINEERING CONTROLS Use in a well-ventilated area. If exhaust ventilation is not available, use appropriate respiratory protection. Do not remain in area where available oxygen may be reduced. 8.2 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) 8.2.1 Eye/Face Protection Avoid eye contact with vapors, mists, or spray. The following eye protection(s) are recommended: Safety Glasses with side shields 8.2.2 Skin Protection Avoid skin contact. Select and use gloves and/or protective clothing to prevent skin contact based on the results of an exposure assessment. Consult with your glove and/or protective clothing manufacturer for selection of appropriate compatible materials. Gloves made from the following material(s) are recommended: Neoprene, Nitrile Rubber 8.2.3 Respiratory Protection Avoid breathing of vapors, mists or spray. Under normal use conditions, airborne exposures are not expected to be significant enough to require respiratory protection. 8.2.4 Prevention of Swallowing Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash exposed areas thoroughly with soap and water. 8.3 EXPOSURE GUIDELINES Ingredient Authority Type Limit Additional Information White Mineral Oil (Petroleum) CMRG TWA 5 mg/m3 White Mineral Oil (Petroleum) CMRG STEL 10 mg/m3 SOURCE OF EXPOSURE LIMIT DATA: ACGIH: American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists CMRG: Chemical Manufacturer Recommended Guideline OSHA: Occupational Safety and Health Administration AIHA: American Industrial Hygiene Association Workplace Environmental Exposure Level (WEEL) SECTION 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Specific Physical Form: Aerosol Odor, Color, Grade: Thick white emulsion citrus odor General Physical Form: Liquid Autoignition temperature No Data Available Flash Point No flash point Flammable Limits(LEL) No Data Available Flammable Limits(UEL) No Data Available Boiling Point Approximately 212 ºF Density Approximately 0.95 g/ml Vapor Density No Data Available Vapor Pressure No Data Available Specific Gravity Approximately 1 [Ref Std: WATER=1] pH 9 - 11 Melting point No Data Available Solubility In Water No Data Available Solubility in Water Complete Evaporation rate No Data Available Volatile Organic Compounds 7 - 13 % [Test Method: calculated per CARB title 2] Kow - Oct/Water partition coef No Data Available Percent volatile 45 - 85 % VOC Less H2O & Exempt Solvents 170 - 330 g/l [Test Method: calculated per CARB title 2] Viscosity < 4500 centipoise [Details: For Liquid] SECTION 10: STABILITY AND REACTIVITY Stability: Stable.
