2 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION The preparation is classified as dangerous according to Directive 19999/45/EC and its amendments. Classification: Xi; R36 & N; R51/53 Physical/Chemical Hazards: No Known significant effects or critical hazards. Human Health Hazards: Irritating to Eyes Environmental Hazards: Toxic to aquatic organisims. May cause long-term adverse effects in the acquatic environment. See section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms. FIRST AID MEASURES Skin Contact: Wash off with water. Get medical attention if any symptoms occur. Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open while washing. Check for and remove contact lenses. Get medical attention if any symptoms occur. Inhalation: Remove from contaminated area. Give oxygen. CPR if indicated. Move to fresh air. Get medical attention if any symptoms occur. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth. Immediately give plenty of water to drink. Get medical attention if any symptoms occur. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Some of these materials may react violently with water. Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire. Small Fires: Dry chemical, CO2, Halon, water spray or alcohol foam. Large Fires: Water spray, fog or standard foam is recommended. Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Cool containers that are exposed to flames with water from the side until well after the fire is out. Stay away from ends of tanks. Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. 2 P a g e

3 Positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and chemical protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the shipper or manufacturer may be worn. It will provide little or no thermal protection. Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full-face piece operated in positive pressure mode. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (SPILLAGE) Precautions: Use suitable protective clothing. Remove sources of heat and flame. Notify occupational and environmental authorities. Spill or Leak: Use soil or absorbent for spilled material, discard in container, as material is toxic to aquatic organisms. HANDLING AND STORAGE Storage: Keep in airtight, cool area in plastic containers. Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, avoid contact of spilled material and runoff with soil and surface waterways. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Occupational Exposure Limits: ACGIH (United States) TWA: 5mg/m³ ACGIH TLV (United States, 1,2004) TWA: 5mg/m³ 8 hour/hours. Form: All forms Controls: The best protection is to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaust ventilation at the site of chemical release. Have a safety shower/eye wash fountain readily available in the immediate work area. A respirator is not needed under normal and intended conditions of product use. Personal Protection: No special protective clothing is required. 3 P a g e

5 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute Toxicity: PRODUCT TEST RESULT ROUTE SPECIES Nonylphenol LD mg/kg Oral Rat LD mg/kg Oral Rat LD mg/kg Oral Mouse Triethanolamine LD mg/kg Oral Rabbit LD mg/kg Oral Guinea Pig Potential Chronic Health Effects: No known significant effects or critical hazards. Over Exposure Target Organs: Contains material which causes damage to the following organs: blood; kidneys; liver; skin; eye; lens or cornea. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION NONYLPHENOL - 5 P a g e Ecotoxicity: Ecotoxicity in water (LC50): 21.4 mg/l 48 hours [Daphnia]. 6.6 mg/l 96 hours [Daphnia]. 7.7 mg/l 96 hours [Fish (Fathead Minnow)]. 4.8 mg/l 96 hours [Fish (Fathead Minnow)] 6.6 mg/l 96 hours [Fish (Fathead Minnow)] BOD5 and COD: Not available. Products of Biodegradation: Possibly hazardous short term degradation products are not likely. However, long term degradation products may arise. Toxicity of the Products Biodegradation: The products of degradation are less toxic than the product itself. Special Remarks on the Products of Biodegradation: Avoid discharge into natural waters. Microbial degradation results in some intermediates that have shown weak estrogen memetic activity. These effects have been observed in labaoratory studies only at concentrations of these degradation intermediates greater than those required for eliciting conventional toxicity in the most sensitive aquatic organisms (approx. 5 ppm). Therefore conventional toxicity remains the more sensitive indicator of environmental exposure to degradation of intermediates of NPES.

6 TRIEHANOLAMINE - Ecotoxicity: Fish: Fathead Minnow: 5600 mg/l; 96H; LC50 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS Disposal Method Product: Chemical waste generators must determine whether a discarded chemical is classified as a hazardous waste. US EPA guidelines for the classification determination are listed in 40 CFR Parts Additionally, waste generators must consult state and local hazardous waste regulations to ensure complete and accurate classification. RCRA P-Series: None listed. RCRA U-Series: None listed. Disposal Method: Disposal in accordance with local legal provisions. TRANSPORT INFORMATION REGULATORY INFO UN NO.
