<br />a <br />Eye Contact: <br />Irritant, can cause pain and redness, possible mechanical harm. May cause severe imtation. <br />Chronic Exposure: <br />Chronic exposure may cause fatigue, slow tendon reflexes, intestinal inflammation (with bleeding), <br />diarrhea, blood effects, central nervous system depression, tremors and paralysis of the extremities. <br />Repeated skin or eye contact can cause skin and eye effects. <br />Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: <br />Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or impaired respiratory function may be more susceptible to the <br />effects of the substance. <br />Methvl Isobutvl Carbinol <br />Health Hazards: Alcohols may be moderately to severely irritating to [he eyes. Prolonged or repeated skin <br />contact with alcohols can result in defatting or drying of the skin with resulting irritation and dermatitis. <br />Prolonged breathing of high alcohol vapor concentrations may cause dizziness, light-headedness, headache, <br />nausea and loss of coordination (central nervous system depression). Alcohols may be toxic if swallowed, <br />producing central nervous system depression. <br />Fire/ex~losion/Reactivity Hazazds: CAUTION! COMBUSTIBLE. These products may be ignited by <br />heat, sparks, open flames or contact with strong oxidizing agents. Vapors may accumulate and travel to <br />ignition sources distant from the handling site resulting in a flash fire. Contact with metallic aluminum at <br />temperatures over 120 °F may cause a vigorous reaction. <br />EMERGENCY ACTION GUIDE <br />IF...FIRE <br />THEN.,.Use water fog, "alcohol" foam, dry chemical or COz to extinguish flames. Cool fire <br />exposed containers with water spray. <br />IF...SPLLL OR LEAK <br />THEN...Eliminate ignition sources. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Shut off leak <br />if safe to do so. If vapor cloud forms, use water fog to suppress or blanket spill with "alcohol" <br />foam. Dike and contain spill. Monitor azea with a combustible gas indicator. Remove with vacuum <br />truck or pump to storage/recovery vessel. Soak up residue with suitable adsorbent material such as <br />clay or sand. Flush azea with water to remove trace residue. Contain run-off from water fog and <br />residue flush and dispose of properly. <br />IF...EYE CONTACT <br />THEN...Flush eyes with large amounts of water for at leas[ 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Rest <br />
