==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
INHALED: MOVE TO FRESH AIR. GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION IF BREATHING STOPPED.
GIVE OXYGEN IF BREATHING DIFFICULT. SEE DOCTOR. EYES: FLUSH WITH LOTS OF WATER
FOR 15 MINUTES, HOLD LIDS OPEN. SEE DOCTOR. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHES.
FLUS H WITH WATER UNTIL RESIDUE GONE. INGESTED: IF CONSCIOUS, DILUTE WITH

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point Text: 140F,60C
Auto Ignition Temperature Text:
Lower Limits: 7% Upper Limits: 73%
Extinguishing Media: DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER SPRAY OR FOAM
Fire Fighting Procedures: WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS AND FULL
PROTECTIVE GEAR. COOL FIRE EXPOSED CONTAINERS WITH WATER. MOVE CONTAINERS FROM
FIRE IF ABLE TO DO AT NO RISK.
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY TRAVEL TO
DISTANT SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASH BACK. VAPOR-AIR MIXTURES ARE EXPLOSIVE
ABOVE FLASH POINT.
