GHS Hazard Statements

H225 (93.88%): Highly Flammable liquid and vapor [Danger Flammable liquids]

First Aid

If the chemical contacts the eyes, remove contact lenses, flush with water or saline for 20-30 minutes, and transport to a hospital immediately, regardless of symptoms.

For skin exposure, flood with water, wash with soap, and seek medical help if redness or irritation occurs.
