Eye contact: Risk of serious damage to eyes

Statements of hazard Very toxic if swallowed

Statement of Spill or Leak - ANSI Label Eliminate all ignition sources. Absorb and/or contain spill with inert materials (e.g., sand, vermiculite). Then place in appropriate container. For large spills, use water spray to disperse vapors, flush spill area. Prevent runoff from entering waterways or sewers.

Precautions - ANSI Label Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist
