3 Page 3/11 (Cont. from page 2) 5 Fire fighting measures Suitable extinguishing agents: CO2, extinguishing powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam. For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: Water with full jet Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device. Additional information Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter the sewage system. 6 Accidental release measures Person-related safety precautions: Ensure adequate ventilation Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away. Measures for environmental protection: Inform respective authorities in case of seepage into water course or sewage system. Measures for cleaning/collecting: Ensure adequate ventilation. Contain and/or absorb spill with inert material (i.e. sand, vermiculite) then place in a suitable container. Sweep up spilled product into receptacles. Send for recovery or disposal in suitable receptacles. Dispose contaminated material as waste according to section 13 of the MSDS. 7 Handling and storage Handling: Information for safe handling: Open and handle receptacle with care. Prevent formation of aerosols. Flammable mixtures with air can be formed in emptied containers. Do not puncture, cut, drill, heat or weld uncleaned drums. Store in original containers. Information about protection against explosions and fires: (Cont. on page 4)

4 Page 4/11 (Cont. from page 3) When working around heating and air conditioning systems, block intake vents to prevent vapor from traveling into buildings. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Enforce no smoking policy for all trades present on job site. Keep container closed tightly when not in use to avoid unnecessary release of vapors and to prevent spills. Do not reuse empty containers. Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke. Use only in explosion protected area. Protect against electrostatic charges. Use explosion-proof apparatus / fittings and spark-proof tools. Empty containers may retain hazardous residue, both liquid and vapor. Ensure good interior ventilation, especially at floor level. (Fumes are heavier than air). Use only with adequate ventilation. Forced ventilation is necessary in pits and poorly ventilated areas. Storage: Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Store in a cool location. Information about storage in one common storage facility: Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke. Use only in explosion protected area. Protect against electrostatic charges. Use explosion-proof apparatus / fittings and spark-proof tools. Further information about storage conditions: Protect from frost. Store in cool, dry conditions in well sealed receptacles. 8 Exposure controls and personal protection Additional information about design of technical systems: No further data; see item 7.

Personal protective equipment: General protective and hygienic measures: Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. Breathing equipment: A chemical cartridge respirator with organic vapor cartridge is required. A dust/mist cartridge or prefilter may be needed in addition to control exposure to mist. Supplied air respirator (SCBA) is required at exposure levels above the capabilities of a chemical cartridge respirator. Protection of hands: Gloves should be worn to prevent skin contact and should be impermeable and resistant to the product. Material of gloves Gloves should be impermeable and resistant to the product. Selection of material should be considered before use. Rubber gloves. Penetration time of glove material The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed. (Cont. on page 6)

7 Page 7/ ,2,4-trimethylbenzene Oral LD50 >3500 mg/kg (rat) Dermal LD mg/kg (rabbit) Inhalative LC50/4 h 18 mg/l (rat) (Cont. from page 6) Primary irritant effect: on the skin: Harmful in contact with skin. on the eye: Irritating effect. Additional toxicological information: Harmful: may cause lung damage if swallowed. When bitumen is mixed with diluent, it is believed that the preparation becomes more bio-available. The carcinogenicity of the preparation is strongly dependent on the nature of the solvent used since the polycylic aromatic content of the bitumen is low. Vapors have narcotic effect. Inhalation of concentrated vapors as well as oral intake will lead to anaesthesia-like conditions and headache, dizziness, etc. * 12Ecological information Additional ecological information: General notes: Do not allow product to reach ground water, water course or sewage system. Danger to drinking water if even small quantities leak into the ground. 13Disposal considerations Product: Comply with Federal, State and local regulations. Waste product is defined as hazardous by US EPA due to ignitability (D001). Uncleaned packagings: Recommendation: Disposal must be made according to official regulations. (Cont. on page 8)
