Component CAS# % OSHA PEL (ppm) ACGIL TLV (ppm)
Isopropyl alcohol 67-63-0 91.0 400 400
Deionized water 7732-18-5 9.0 NA NA

Section 3 - Hazards Identification

Product is distributed as a single-use, presaturated pad, in which all the liquid is absorbed by the applicator. Isopropyl alcohol is a flammable liquid. Eye contact will cause local irritation and burning sensations with possible injury if not removed promptly. Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may produce irritation and cause dermatitis. Exposure above TLV may cause irritation of respiratory tract and eyes along with headaches, dizziness and CNS effects. May be harmful if swallowed.
Carcinogenicity (OSHA/NTP/IARC/ACGIH): Not Listed.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Not Listed.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures

EYE CONTACT: Flush with water for 15 minutes, including under eyelids. Get Medical help.
SKIN CONTACT: Flush with water.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. Keep at rest. Restore and/or support breathing as needed. Get prompt Medical attention.
INGESTION: In the unlikely event of ingestion of a wiper, first aid measures should focus on removal of the object and preventing choking. Once removed, keep affected person at rest. Call physician immediately.

Section 5 - Fire-Fighting Measures

FLASH POINT (TCC): 56 degrees F
FLAMMABLE LIMITS (% BY VOLUME): LEL: NA UEL: NA
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE degrees F (degrees C): NA
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Isopropyl-alcohol fires may be extinguished using carbon dioxide, dry chemical or alcohol foam. Water may be used to cool containers exposed to the fire.
UNUSUAL FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Isopropyl alcohol may release vapors which may ignite at or above flash point.
NFPA RATING: HEALTH (1)
FLAMMABILITY (3)
REACTIVITY (0)
Formulation is classified as an OSHA Class IB Flammable Liquid

NA = Not Available

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Since the isopropyl-alcohol solution is completely absorbed by the applicator and the amount of isopropyl alcohol per applicator is small, the chance of a significant spill occurring is small. In the event however, that a significant amount of liquid is released, ventilate the area, especially low areas where vapors may collect, and remove all sources of ignition. Cleanup personnel need protection against liquid contact and vapor inhalation.

Section 7 - Handling And Storage

Store in a clean, cool, ventilated area away from sources of ignition and oxidizing agents. Handle and store in a manner suitable for an OSHA class IB Flammable Liquid. Electrical services must meet applicable codes. Use non-sparking tools.

Section 8 - Exposure Control - Personal Protection

Provide ventilation to maintain TLV. Use non-sparking tools. Avoid inhalation of vapors, contact with eyes and repeated or prolonged contact with skin. Do not take internally.
