Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or <br />expose such containers to heat, flame, sharks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition; they may explode. <br />11 * * * Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection * * * 11 <br />Exposure Guidelines <br />A: General Product Information <br />Attempts should be made to eliminate all contact with skin and eyes, and to limit inhalation exposure. <br />B: Component Exposure Limits <br />ACGIH, OSHA, and NIOSH have not developed exposure limits for any of this product's components. <br />Engineering Controls <br />Use general ventilation and use local exhaust, where possible, in confined or enclosed spaces. <br />PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT <br />Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes/Face <br />Wear safety glasses. Wear chemical goggles or faceshield if splash or mist occurs. <br />Personal Protective Equipment: Skin <br />Use impervious gloves for prolonged contact. Use of protective coveralls and long sleeves is recommended. <br />Personal Protective Equipment: Respiratory <br />Use an organic vapor respirator for concentrations exceeding the occupational exposure limits. <br />Personal Protective Equipment: General <br />Launder contaminated clothine before reuse. Evewash fountains and emerQencv showers are recommended. <br />II * * * Section 9 - Phvsical & Chemical Prouerties * * * II <br />Appearance: <br />Clear amber <br />Odor: <br />Slight etheric <br />Physical State: <br />Liquid <br />pH: <br />Not available <br />Vapor Pressure: <br /><0.1 @ 20C <br />Vapor Density: <br />Not available <br />Boiling Point: <br />460-470 F <br />Melting Point: <br />Not available <br />Solubility (H2O): <br />Complete <br />Specific Gravity: <br />1.04 <br />Freezing Point: <br />Not available <br />Physical Properties: Additional Information <br />None. <br />* * * Section 10 - Chemical Stability & Reactivity Information <br />Chemical Stability <br />Stable <br />Chemical Stability: Conditions to Avoid <br />Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents and temperatures in excess of 300 C (572 F). <br />Incompatibility <br />None identified. <br />Hazardous Decomposition <br />Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. <br />Hazardous Polymerization <br />Hazardous polymerization will not occur. <br />II * * * Section 11 - Toxicological Information * * * II <br />Acute Toxicity <br />A: General Product Information <br />No information available for the product. Diethylene glycol is a central nervous depressant and kidney and liver toxin. <br />Over-exposure may result in liver and kidney damage. Triethylene glycol monoethyl ether (TGME) is slowly absorbed <br />through the skin. Chronic oral exposure to TGME may result in changes to the liver and testes. Triethylene glycol <br />monobutyl ether (TGBE) has low order of toxicity by dermal and oral routes and contact with eyes may result in irritation. <br />Ethylene glycol contamination can be considerable in commercial grades of glycol ethers. Ethylene glycol is a respiratory <br />Page 3 of 6 <br />Issue Date: 04/28/97 Revision: 1.0001 Print Date: 03/04/99 <br />
