3. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
Chemical Name Wt.% CAS
Naphtha (petroleum), light alkylate 60 – 10064741-66-8
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical advice/attention.
SKIN: Immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Get medical advice/attention if irritation or rash
develops. Wash clothing before reuse.
INGESTION: If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. Provided the patient is conscious, wash out mouth with
water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or
oxygen by trained personnel. Get immediate medical attention.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Symptomatic and supportive therapy as needed. Following severe exposure medical follow-up should be monitored
for at least 48 hours.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or foam.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be
moved by ventilation and ignited by heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources at locations distant from material handling point.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Cool fire exposed containers with water spray. Remove containers from the fire area if possible. Do not
release runoff from fire control methods to sewers or waterways.
FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: Firefighters should wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and consider use of
unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles for fighting large fires.
SENSITIVE TO STATIC DISCHARGE: This material can accumulate static charges which can cause an incendiary electrical discharge.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES: Evacuate unnecessary personnel from the spill area. Wear necessary personal protective equipment (PPE)
as specified in the SDS or the site emergency response plan. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Ensure adequate ventilation. Dike and contain
spill. Prevent product from entering drains or waterways. Absorb with non-combustible material (such as sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, or
vermiculite) and transfer to a container for disposal according to local/national regulations.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS

RELEASE #78
WATER SPILL: Do not discharge into drains, surface waters, or groundwater.
GENERAL PROCEDURES: Refer to section 8 of SDS for personal protection details.
RELEASE NOTES: Composition and extent of any spill should be evaluated against local regulations and reported to the proper agencies, if
necessary.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
GENERAL PROCEDURES: Keep away from sources of ignition. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Avoid breathing vapor over open containers. Avoid open container exposure to damp air. Avoid breathing aerosols, mists, and vapors.
HANDLING: Use appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Handle in a well-ventilated area. Handle and use in a
manner consistent with good industrial/manufacturing techniques and practices.
STORAGE: Store in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from excessive heat in the original or similar container. Avoid sources of ignition and
incompatible materials. Protect from freezing. Containers should be tightly sealed to prevent contamination with foreign materials. Avoid
unnecessary contact.
STORAGE TEMPERATURE: 65-80 F (18-27 C)
SHELF LIFE: 12 months from date of shipment under manufacturers recommended storage conditions.
ELECTROSTATIC ACCUMULATION HAZARD: This material can accumulate static charges which can cause an incendiary electrical
discharge.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
EYES AND FACE: Safety goggles or glasses are recommended. Plastic face shields should be used for complete face protection to protect
against possible splashing or spraying of material. ANSI Z87.1 or approved equivalent.
SKIN: Chemical-resistant gloves and chemical goggles, face-shield, and synthetic apron or coveralls should be used to prevent contact with
eyes, skin, or clothing. Wear nitrile or neoprene gloves. Chemical resistant gloves lined with polyethylene offer maximum protection.
RESPIRATORY: Exhaust ventilation recommended. An organic vapor cartridge or fresh air supplied respirator (NIOSH approved) may be
necessary for certain applications. Consider the type of application, environmental concentrations, and other materials being used concurrently
when determining respirator use and selection. Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134).
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Protective clothing should be selected and used in accordance with “Guidelines for the Selection of Chemical
Protective Clothing” published by ACGIH.
