=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

LD50 LC50 Mixture:ALC (RATS) = 567,000 PPM/4 HOURS
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:NO  Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:TARGET ORGANS: EYES, SKIN, HEART,
    CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM, RESPIRATORY AND GASTROINTESTINAL TRACTS.
    ACUTE - EYE: CONTACT WITH LIQUID IS IRRITATING AND MAY CAUSE
    FROSTBITE. SKIN: EVAPORATION OF LIQUID F ROM SKIN CAN CAUSE
    CHILLING SENSATION AND FROSTBITE CAN OCCUR. PROLONGED CONTACT CAN
    CAUSE IRRITATION. INHALATION: HARMFUL IF INHALED. HIGH
    CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR IN IMMEDIATE AREA CAN DISPLACE OXYGE N AND
    CAUSE HEART PROBLEMS, DIZZINESS, UNCONSCIOUSNESS, AND EVEN DEATH
    WITH LONGER EXPOSURE. INGESTION: UNLIKELY DUE TO VOLATILE NATURE OF
    PRODUCT. CONTACT WITH LIQUID MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE TO MOUTH AND 
    THROAT. CHRONIC - UNKNOWN.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THIS COMPOUND CONTAINS NO INGREDIENTS AT
    CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT
    CARCINOGENS.
Effects of Overexposure:IRRITATION, FROSTBITE, HEADACHE,  DIZZINESS,
    UNCONSCIOUSNESS, DEATH
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:HEART, LUNG, SKIN, EYE.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION DEVELOPS OR PERSISTS.
    EYES: TREAT FOR POSSIBLE  FROSTBITE, THEN FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF
    WATER. AFTER INITIAL FLUSHING, REMOVE ANY CONTACT LENSES AND
    CONTINUE FLUSHING  FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. SKIN: TREAT FORPOSSIBLE
     FROSTBITE, THEN WASH SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER. INHALED: REMOVE
    VICTIM TO FRESH AIR.  IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL
    RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DI FFICULT, PROVIDE OXYGEN. GET
    MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: TREAT FOR POSSIBLE FROSTBITE.
    SWALLOWING LESS THAN AN OUNCE WILL NOT CAUSE SIGNIFICANT HARM. FOR
    LARGER AMOUNTS, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. GET  MEDICAL ATTENTION.
