HAZARD INDENTIFICATION Classification: Skin irritation, Category 3 Symbol: Symbol Signal Word: Warning, Irritant Hazard Statement: Causes eye and skin irritation. Precautionary Statement: Keep container tightly closed. Wear protective gloves and eye/face protection. Avoid breathing dust particles. 3. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Chemical Identity CAS# Max. Conc. (wt %) This product does not contain material(s) listed as hazardous materials within the meaning of the following: SARA Title III (Section 313), OSHA 29CFR , Dangerous Substance Directive 67/248/EEC or the Hazardous Products Act. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Contact with eyes: Contact with skin: Inhalation: Swallowing: Flush with clean water for 15 minutes. Contact a Physician. Washing eyes within 1 minute after contact is essential to achieve maximum effectiveness. Immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water for 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and do not re-use until laundered. Remove victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention. If breathing has stopped, start artificial respirations.

FIREFIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media: Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Specific Hazards in Case of Fire: Protective Equipment / Precautions: Water Fog, Dry Chemical, Foam, and CO 2 High flow water jet 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions: Environmental Precautions: Methods / Materials for Containment and Clean up: 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Safe Handling Procedures: Safe Storage Procedures w/ Incompatibles: Avoid heavy concentrations of dust. Heavy concentrations of dust mixed with air can produce an explosive environment in the presence of an ignition source. Positive pressure, self-contained respiratory protection and protective clothing should be worn by firefighters in areas where product is stored. Depending on the extent of release, consider the need for firefighters/emergency responders with adequate personal protective equipment for cleaning up. Do not eat, drink or smoke while cleaning up. See section 8 for personal protective equipment. See section 7 for handling instructions. Prevent spills from entering storm sewers or drains and contact with soil. Contain spill. Avoid dusting if possible. Cover with an absorbent material (treated sawdust, diatomaceous earth, sand). Shovel up and dispose of at an appropriate waste facility in accordance with current applicable laws and regulations. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid breathing dust particles. When preparing operating solutions, use lukewarm water for make-up. Always add dry powder to water, never water to dry powder. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store away from sources of high heat and open flame or spark. Spilled material becomes extremely slippery when wet. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Exposure Limits Component Name CAS # TWA STEL ppm mg/m3 ppm mg/m3 Ventilation: Respiratory Protection: Eye Protection: Skin Protection: Exhaust ventilation to maintain air contamination below TLV. Mechanical ventilation recommended. Use appropriate NIOSH approved respiratory equipment for dust and mists. Face shield, chemical splash goggles Rubber or other suitable material
