3 Composition / information on ingredients

Information for specific product ingredients as required by the
U.S. OSHA HAZARD COMMUNICATION STANDARD is listed. Refer to
additional sections of this MSDS for our assessment of the potential
hazards of this formulation. This product is subject to the Pennsylvania
and New Jersey Worker and Community Right to Know Law.
HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS:
Cas# Chemical Name Range(w/w%)
497-18-7 CARBONIC DIHYDRAZIDE 5-10

Exothermic hydrolysis to hydrazine can occur with
high temperature; also occurs by contact with
mineral acids, oxidizers, or low grade metals;
irritant (skin and eyes)
Aviod contact with low grade metals (LCS, AL, Cu), mineral acids and
oxidizers to avoid accelerated actives degradation.
Do not mix with other chemicals. Feed independently to system.

NON-HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS:
CAS# CHEMICAL NAME
7732-18-5 WATER
4 First-aid measures
SKIN CONTACT:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing.
Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
EYE CONTACT:
Remove contact lenses. Hold eyelids apart. Immediately flush eyes
with plenty of low-pressure water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention if irritation persists after flushing.
INHALATION:
If nasal, throat or lung irritation develops - remove to fresh air
and get medical attention.
INGESTION:
Do not feed anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsive
victim. Do not induce vomiting. Immediately contact physician.

Dilute contents of stomach using 2-8 fluid ounces (60-240 mL) of
milk or water.
NOTES TO PHYSICIANS:
No special instructions
5 Fire-fighting measures
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Fire fighters should wear positive pressure self-contained breathing
apparatus (full face-piece type).
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam or water

7 Handling and storage

HANDLING:
Contact with oxidizers, peroxide and metal oxide may result in a
violent reaction. Contamination with low pH products and low grade
metal accelerate decomposition to hydrazine.
