2 Precautionary Statements - Prevention Wash face, hands and any exposed skin thoroughly after handling Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection Precautionary Statements - Response IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse 3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Chemical Name CAS No Weight-% Potassium Carbonate **If Chemical Name/CAS No is "proprietary" and/or Weight-% is listed as a range, the specific chemical identity and/or percentage of composition has been withheld as a trade secret.** First Aid Measures 4. FIRST-AID MEASURES Eye Contact Skin Contact Inhalation Ingestion IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/ attention. Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse. IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Immediately call a poison center or doctor/physician. IF SWALLOWED: rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious, give water or milk. Immediately call a poison center or doctor/physician. Most important symptoms and effects Symptoms Causes skin irritation. Causes serious eye irritation. Ingestion may cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, cramps, vomiting, convulsions, or diarrhea. May cause irritation of the respiratory tract. Chronic ingestion may cause damage to heart, liver, and blood-forming tissues. Ingestion of large quantities may cause headache, mental impairment, dizziness, and may be fatal. Existing skin and lung disorders may be aggravated by overexposure. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Notes to Physician Treat symptomatically. 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media. Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical Product is not flammable. Hazardous Combustion Products Nitrogen oxides (NOx). Metal oxide/oxides. Oxides of sulfur. Page 2 / 7

3 Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Personal Precautions Environmental Precautions Use personal protective equipment as required. Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater. See Section 12, Ecological Information. See Section 13: DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up Methods for Containment Methods for Clean-Up Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Contained materials may be salvaged for use if uncontaminated. For small spills, absorb with sand, clay, or other inert absorbent. For large spills, dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Do not release into sewers or waterways. Dispose of in accordance with federal, state and local regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling Advice on Safe Handling Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing and eye/face protection. Wash face, hands, and any exposed skin thoroughly after handling. Use in accordance with product label instructions. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Storage Conditions Incompatible Materials Keep container tightly closed and store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Keep in properly labeled containers. Store in compatible containers. Keep away from children, pets, domestic animals, and wildlife. Strong bases. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Exposure Guidelines This product, as supplied, does not contain any hazardous materials with occupational exposure limits established by the region specific regulatory bodies Appropriate engineering controls Engineering Controls Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Eyewash stations. Showers. Page 3 / 7

4 Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Eye/Face Protection Skin and Body Protection Respiratory Protection Chemical safety goggles/faceshield. Chemical resistant protective gloves. Suitable protective clothing. Respiratory protection may be needed if airborne mists are created. Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use. Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR ) and, if necessary, wear a NIOSH-approved respirator. Select respirator based on its suitability to provide adequate worker protection for given working conditions, level of airborne contamination, and presence of oxygen. Warning: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. If respirators are required, OSHA requires a written respiratory protection program that includes at least: medical certification, training, fit-testing, periodic environmental monitoring, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, and convenient, sanitary storage areas.
