ROUTE OF EXPOSURE, SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
INHALATION
Upper respiratory tract irritation and dizziness.
EYE CONTACT
Irritation, watering may occur.
SKIN CONTACT
Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate and cause dermatitis.
INGESTION
May cause nausea, vomiting and gastro-intestinal irritation.
SUMMARY OF CHRONIC HAZARDS

Prolonged eye contact may result in irritation or chemical burns.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
Individuals with pre-existing or chronic diseases of the eyes, skin
or persons with chemical sensitivity may have increased susceptibility to
excessive exposures.
=============================================================================
Section 4 -- FIRST AID MEASURES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If INHALED: If overcome by exposure, remove victim to fresh air
immediately. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as
needed. Obtain emergency medical attention. Prompt action
is essential.
