3 Tergitol XJ Surfactant Page Number: 3 Section 6. Accidental Release Measures Small Spill Large Spill Use appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. If the product is in its solid form: Use a shovel to put the material into a convenient waste disposal container. If the product is in its liquid form: Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system. Be careful that the product is not present at a concentration level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS and with local authorities. Section 7. Handling and Storage Precautions Storage Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe dust. Wear suitable protective clothing. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis. Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. Splash goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. Respiratory protection is not normally required where adequate ventilation conditions exist. Gloves. Splash goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product.

Toxicological Information Routes of Entry Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans Other Toxic Effects on Humans Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans other Toxic Effects on Humans Inhalation. Ingestion. Acute oral toxicity (LD50): 80 mg/kg [Rat (female)]. Hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant). Slightly hazardous in case of ingestion. Non-hazardous in case of inhalation. This product may contain trace amounts of the following which may cause cancer: Propylene Oxide; Acetaldehyde,4-Dioxane; Formaldehyde; Ethylene Oxide This product may contain trace amounts of the following which may cause reproductive harm: Ethylene Oxide Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: Causes skin irritation with discomfort, local redness, and possible swelling. Eyes: Causes eye irritation experienced as stinging and discomfort or pain. Excess redness and swelling of the conjunctiva and corneal injury may also occur. Inhalation: At room temperature, exposure to vapor is minimal due to a low volatility; single exposure is not likely to be hazardous. Vapor from heated material or mist may cause serious adverse effects. Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. Moderately toxic. May cause irritation of the mouth and throat, abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. Sluggishness, drowsiness, incoordination, and weakness may occur. Aspiration into the lungs may occur during ingestion or vomiting, causing lung damage or death due to chemical pneumonia. Chronic Potential Health Effects: Skin: Repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Section 2.
