Potential Health Effects
Eye: May cause slight to severe irritation.
Skin: May cause slight to severe irritation. Repeated skin contact may aggravate an existing
dermatitis (skin condition) and/or sensitivity of the skin.
Inhalation: Exposure to vapors or mists in excess of the TLV (see Section 8) or in unusually high
concentrations generated from spraying, heating the material, or from exposure in poorly
ventilated areas or confined spaces may cause irritation of the nose, throat, and upper
respiratory system.
Signs and Symptoms:
á Eyes: Redness, Tearing
á Skin: Redness, Swelling
á Inhalation: Discomfort of the nose and throat, headache, nausea, and drowsiness
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Eyes: Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, seek medical
attention.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected area with plenty of soap and water for
several minutes. If skin irritation develops or persists, seek medical attention.

Section 5. Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: Not Tested
Flammable Limits: Not Tested
Auto-ignition Temperature: Not Tested
NOTE: This material is non-flammable as supplied.
Extinguishing Media: Water spray, ABC dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide. Use water fog or spray
to cool exposed equipment and containers. Water or foam may cause frothing.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: For large fires or fires in confined areas, full emergency equipment with
self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing should be
used. Thermal decomposition of this product may produce hazardous or irritating byproducts. See Section 10.
Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Avoid breathing vapors. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Contain the spill and collect the material
using chemically resistant sorbent products. If this product is mixed with other materials, see Section 13.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Avoid high heat and/or freezing conditions. Keep container tightly closed. Suitable for general chemical storage under normal warehouse conditions.
NOTE: If this product is stored at temperatures >150 ¡F or at elevations above 5000 feet, gas may form, increasing the pressure within the container, causing the container to bulge. If bulging occurs, remove the container from the work area and slowly open the container to release the gas. Be sure to wear proper personal protective equipment.
Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Exposure Limits: Triethanolamine
ACGIH TLV is 5 mg/M3.
