===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:Yes Skin:Yes Ingestion:Yes
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:Adverse effects on human health are
not expected from Foaming Simple
GreenŽ. Foaming Simple GreenŽ is a mild eye irritant; mucous membranes
may become irritated by concentrate-mist.
Foaming Simple GreenŽ is not likely to irritate the skin in the
majority of users. Repeated daily application to the skin
without rinsing, or continuous contact of Foaming Simple GreenŽ on the
skin may lead to temporary, but reversible,
irritation.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:Foaming Simple GreenŽ is non-mutagenic
and non-carcinogenic. None of the ingredients in Foaming Simple
GreenŽ are
regulated or listed as potential cancer agents by Federal OSHA, NTP, or
IARC.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:Medical Conditions Aggravated by
Exposure: No aggravation of existing medical conditions is
expected; some dermalsensitive
users may react to dermal contact by Foaming Simple GreenŽ.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:Eye contact: Reddening may develop. Immediately rinse the eye
with large quantities of cool water; continue 10-15
minutes or until the material has been removed; be sure to remove
contact lenses, if present, and to lift
upper and lower lids during rinsing. Get medical attention if
irritation persists.
Skin contact: Minimal effects, if any; rinse skin with water, rinse
shoes and launder clothing before reuse. Reversible
reddening may occur in some dermal-sensitive users; thoroughly rinse
area and get medical attention if
reaction persists.
Swallowing: Essentially non-toxic. Give several glasses of water to
dilute; do not induce vomiting. If stomach upset
occurs, consult physician.
Inhalation: Intentional concentration of propellant could cause
respiratory irritation, headache, nausea, fatigue,
drowsiness, impaired coordination. Remove to fresh air. Administer
oxygen if needed. Apply artificial
respiration if breathing has stopped. Get medical attention.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:Foaming Simple GreenŽ contains a flammable
propellant and firefighters should wear
self-contained breathing apparatus when fighting fires containing or
around this product. Shut off all sources of ignition
if possible. Keep containers cool with water spray to prevent rupture.
Ventilate area. Contain spill and dike if possible.
For leaks and spills that have not ignited, water spray can be used to
disperse the flammable vapor and protect
personnel attempting to stop the leak. Do not use direct stream of
water because the flammable portion will float and
can be reignited.
Fire Fighting Procedures:Extinguishing medium as appropriate for
combustibles in area.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:Firefighters should wear SCBA's in a
positive pressure mode with full-face shield.
The flammable components are heavier than air and may travel long
distances and accumulate in low areas or spread
along ground from handling site. Eliminate all sources of ignition as
vapor may ignite. Carbon oxides may be formed. NOTE: Per the DOT
Flame Extension Test, Foaming Simple GreenŽ did not produce a flame
projection or flashback.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:Recover usable material by convenient method;
residual may be removed by wipe or wet mop. Ventilate area
especially low
places where heavy vapors might collect. Extinguish all ignition
sources.
Neutralizing Agent:
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:Store in tightly sealed containers.
Keep away from heat, sparks, open flame and out of direct sunlight.
Store below 120 °F.
Do not puncture or incinerate (burn) cans. Do not stick pin, nail or
any other sharp object into opening on top of can. MODE:IATA BASIC

Other Precautions:
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:No special precautions required.
Ventilation:No special ventilation is required during normal use.
Protective Gloves:No special precautions required; rinse completely
from skin after contact.
reddening may occur in some dermal-sensitive users; thoroughly rinse
area and get medical attention if
reaction persists.
Eye Protection:Caution, including reasonable eye protection, should
always be used to avoid
eye contact.
Other Protective Equipment:No special requirements under normal use
conditions.
Work Hygienic Practices:Wash or rinse hands before touching eyes or
contact lenses. Follow standard hygienic practices for handling
cleaning agents.
Supplemental Safety and Health
The Foaming Simple GreenŽ formulation presents no health hazards to the
user, other than
mild eye irritancy.
================== Physical/Chemical Properties ==================
Boiling Pt:100.6 °C
Vapor Pres:18mmHg@20°C;23.5mmHg@26°C
Spec Gravity:1.020
VOC Pounds/Gallon:50
pH:9.35
Solubility in Water:Completely soluble in water.
Appearance and Odor:White foam, mild soap odor. Foaming Simple GreenŽ
has a characteristic odor that is not indicative of any hazardous
situation.
Corrosion Rate:
================= Stability and Reactivity Data =================
Stability Indicator/Materials to Avoid:Stability Condition to
Avoid:Nonreactive. Foaming Simple GreenŽ is stable, and will not
react with water or oxidizers.
Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
Conditions to Avoid Polymerization:
=================== Toxicological Information ===================
Toxicological Information:Nonhuman Toxicity (data for Simple Green )
Acute Mortality Studies:Oral LD50 (rat): >5.0 g/kg body weight
Dermal LD50 (rabbit): >2.0 g/kg body weight
Dermal Irritation: Only mild, but reversible, irritation was found in a
standard 72-hr test on rabbits. A value of 0.2
(non-irritating) was found on a scale of 8.
Eye Irritation: With or without rinsing with water, the irritation
scores in rabbits at 24 hours did not exceed 15 (mild irritant)
on a scale of 110.
Subchronic dermal effects: No adverse effects, except reversible dermal
irritation, were found in rabbits exposed to
Simple Green (up to 2.0 g/kg/day for 13 weeks) applied to the skin of
25 males and 25 females. Only female body
weight gain was affected. Detailed microscopic examination of all major
tissues showed no adverse changes.
Fertility Assessment by Continuous Breeding: The Simple GreenŽ
formulation had no adverse effect on fertility and
reproduction in CD-1 mice with continuous administration for 18 weeks,
and had no adverse effect on the reproductive
performance of their offspring.
===================== Ecological Information =====================
Ecological:Biodegradability:Like Simple GreenŽ, Foaming Simple GreenŽ
is readily decomposed by naturally occurring microorganisms. The
biological
oxygen demand (BOD), as a percentage of the chemical oxygen demand
(COD), will approximate 60% after 11 days.
In a standard biodegradation test with soils from three different
countries, Butyl Cellosolve reached 50% degradation in six to
23 days, depending upon soil type, and exceeded the rate of degradation
for glucose, which was used as a control for
comparison.
Environmental Toxicity Information:Foaming Simple GreenŽ is considered
practically non-toxic per EPAs aquatic toxicity scale.
==================== Disposal Considerations ====================
Waste Disposal Methods:Foaming Simple GreenŽ is fully water soluble and
biodegradable and will not harm sewage-treatment microorganisms if
disposal by sewer or drain is necessary. Dispose of in accordance with
all applicable local, state, and federal laws.
Containers: Do not throw empty containers in trash compactor or into
fire. Do not store in direct sun.
=================== MSDS Transport Information ===================
Transport Information:Store in tightly sealed containers. Keep away
from heat, sparks, open flame and out of direct sunlight. Store
below 120 °F.
Do not puncture or incinerate (burn) cans. Do not stick pin, nail or
any other sharp object into opening on top of can.
===================== Regulatory Information =====================
SARA Title III Information:The Butyl Cellosolve in Foaming Simple
GreenŽ is part of a chemical category (glycol ethers) regulated by
the
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (SARA, Title III,
section 313); therefore, a reporting requirement
exists in the U.S.A.
Federal Regulatory Information:Based upon chemical analysis Foaming
Simple GreenŽ contains no known EPA priority pollutants,
heavy metals, or chemicals listed under RCRA, CERCLA, or CWA. Analysis
by TCLP (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching
Procedure) according to RCRA revealed no toxic organic or inorganic
constituents.
