=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

LD50 LC50 Mixture:LD50 (ORAL RAT) IS 7060 MG/KG (ETHANOL)
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED. MAY
    BE HARMFUL IF ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN. LIQUID OR VAPOR MAY CAUSE
    IRRITATION TO THE EYES. CHRONIC: MAY BE FATAL OR CAUSE BLINDNESS IF
    SWALLOWED.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE OF THE COMPOUNDS IN THIS PRODUCT IS
    LISTED BY IARC, NTP, OR OSHA AS A CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE CONCS. OF
    ETHANOL MAY RESULT IN IRRITATION OF MUCOUS MEMBRANES, HEADACHE,
    DROWSINESS, FATIGUE AND NARCOSIS. METHANOL IS ALSO A CUMULATIVE
    NARCOTIC. OVEREXPOSURE OF METH ANOL CAN RESULT IN ACIDOSIS AND
    VISUAL DISTURBANCES WHICH MAY PROGRESS TO PERMANENT LOSS OF VISION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF AILMENTS
    OR WITH A PRE-EXISTING DISEASE INVOLVING THE SKIN, EYE, RESPIRATORY
    TRACT, LIVER OR KIDNEY MAY BE AT INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INHALATION-REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESUSCITATE IF NOT BREATHING.
    GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES-IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER
    FOR 15 MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN-REMOVE CONTAMINATED
    CLOTHIN G. FLUSH WITH WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, GET MEDICAL
    ADVICE. INGESTION-INDUCE VOMITING IMMEDIATELY. GIVE NOTHING BY
    MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point Method:TCC

Extinguishing Media:USE WATER FOG, CARBON DIOXIDE, "ALCOHOL" FOAM, OR
    DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:FIRE FIGHTERS SHOULD USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA &
    FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN FIGHTING CHEMICAL FIRE. USE WATER
    SPRAY TO COOL NEARBY CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO FIRE.

    AIR AND MAY TRAVEL CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION
    AND FLASH BACK.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:ELIMINATE ALL IGNITION SOURCES. SMALL SPILLS
    MAY BE COLLECTED WITH ABSORBENT MATERIALS. FOR LARGE SPILLS, FLUSH

    REACTING WITH AIR OR MOISTURE TO LIBERATE HEAT, IGNITION SOURCES
    AND EXPLOSIVES.  KEEP OUT OF DIRECT SUN & AWAY FROM HEAT.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:IF VENTILATION DOES NOT MAINTAIN INHALATION
    EXPOSURES BELOW PEL(TLV), USE NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATORS.
