1 SAFETY DATA SHEET 1. Product and Company Identification Product identifier Other means of identification Recommended use Recommended restrictions Manufacturer information Supplier Cover Free Not available Suppression of water evaporation and heat loss None known. NC Brands 4 Richards Ave. Norwalk, CT 6854 US Phone: (8) Emergency Phone: CHEMTREC (8) See above. 2. Hazards Identification Physical hazards Health hazards Environmental hazards WHMIS 215 defined hazards Label elements Hazard symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Prevention Response Storage Disposal WHMIS 215: Health Hazard(s) not otherwise classified (HHNOC) WHMIS 215: Physical Hazard(s) not otherwise classified (PHNOC) Hazard(s) not otherwise classified (HNOC) Supplemental information Not classified None. None. The mixture does not meet the criteria for classification. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Wash hands after handling. Store away from incompatible materials. Dispose of waste and residues in accordance with local authority requirements. None known None known None known. Not applicable. 3. Composition/Information on Ingredients Mixture Chemical name Cetyl Alcohol 1,2-Propanediol Common name and synonyms CAS number % All concentrations are in percent by weight unless ingredient is a gas. Gas concentrations are in percent by volume. 4. First Aid Measures Inhalation Skin contact Eye contact Ingestion Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist. Rinse skin with water/shower. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Rinse with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Rinse mouth. If ingestion of a large amount does occur, call a poison control center immediately. Direct contact with eyes may cause temporary irritation. #2157 Page: 1 of 7

2 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed General information Suitable extinguishing media Unsuitable extinguishing media Specific hazards arising from the chemical Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Fire-fighting equipment/instructions Specific methods General fire hazards Hazardous combustion products Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Treat symptomatically. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wear rubber gloves and safety glasses with side shields. 5. Fire Fighting Measures Foam. Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide. None known. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. May include and are not limited to: Oxides of carbon. 6. Accidental Release Measures Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Large Spills: Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Environmental precautions Precautions for safe handling Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. 7. Handling and Storage Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use care in handling/storage. Store in original tightly closed container. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 1 of the SDS). 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Occupational exposure limits Canada. Ontario OELs. (Control of Exposure to Biological or Chemical Agents) Type Value 1,2-Propanediol (CAS ) US. AIHA Workplace Environmental Exposure Level (WEEL) Guides Type 1,2-Propanediol (CAS ) Biological limit values Appropriate engineering controls Form TWA 155 mg/m3 Vapor and aerosol. 1 mg/m3 Aerosol. 5 ppm Vapor and aerosol. Value Form TWA 1 mg/m3 Aerosol. No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Good general ventilation (typically 1 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields. #2157 Page: 2 of 7
