| [Inhalation] Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. | |
| [Skin] May cause skin irritation. | |
| [Skin] Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. | |
| [Skin] Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. | |
| [Eyes] May cause eye irritation. | |

| [Storage] Keep away from heat and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. | |
| [Storage] Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container. | |
| [Handling] Use with adequate ventilation. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. | |
| [Handling] Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. | |
| [Ingestion] May cause irritation of the digestive tract. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | |
| [Inhalation] May cause irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing, sore throat, labored breathing, and chest pain. May be absorbed into the bloodstream with symptoms similar to ingestion. | |
| [Skin] Brief contact is not irritating. Prolonged skin contact causes mild to moderate local redness and swelling. Can be absorbed through the skin with prolonged and widespread contact. | |
| [Eyes] Causes irritation, redness, and pain. | |
| [Ingestion] Large oral doses may cause irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Ingestion may cause signs of intoxication, such as nausea, headache, incoordination, dizziness, drowsiness, and slurred speech depending on the amount ingested. | |
