Section III: Hazards Identification
Label precautionary statements. Harmful. Harmful by inhalation,in contact with
skin and if swallowed. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. Possible risk of irreversible effects. Possible carcinogen/mutagen. Target Organ(s): Lungs. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water
and seek medical advice. Do not breathe dust. Keep container tightly closed.
Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
Section IV: First Aid Measures
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with copious amounts of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Assure adequate flushing of the eyes by separating the eyelids with fingers.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration.
If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If swallowed, wash out mouth with water
provided person is conscious. Call a physician. Wash contaminated clothing
before reuse.
Section V: Fire Fighting Measures
Extinguishing media. Carbon Dioxide dry chemical powder or appropriate foam.
Special firefighting procedures: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and
protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Unusual fire and
explosions hazards. Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions.
Section VI: Accidental Release Measures
Evacuate area. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, rubber boots and heavy
rubber gloves. Cover with dry lime or soda ash, pickup, keep in a closed container and hold for waste disposal. Ventilate area and wash spill site after
material pick up is complete.
Section VII: Handling And Storage
Refer to sectin 8
Section VIII: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Wear appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator, chemical resistant gloves,
safety goggles, other protective clothing. Safety shower and eye bath. Use
only in a chemical fume hood. Do not breathe dust. Do not get in eyes, on
skin, on clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure. Wash thoroughly
after handling. Possible carcinogen/mutagen. Harmful solid. Irritant. Keep
tightly closed. Store in a cool dry place.

Section XI: Toxicological Information
Acute Effects:
Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through skin. Causes eye and skin
irritation. Material is irritating to mucous membranes and upper respiratory
tract. Depending on the intensity and duration of exposure, effects may vary
from mild irritation to severe destruction of tissue. Prolonged contact can
cause: damage to the eyes, nausea dizziness and headache.
Chronic Effects:
Possible carcinogen. Laboratory experiments have shown mutagenic efffects. Target Organ(s): lungs. RTECS NO: G07875000 P-cresol, 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-
