Section I - IDENTIFICATION
Product Name: Safe-React 100% D-limonene
Trade Name: D-limonene, Technical Grade
CAS Number: 5989-27-5
Section II - HAZARDOUS COMPONENTS
Volatile Ingredients: D-Limonene (solvent) is the major component >95% with balance other terpene hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds - octanal, nonanal, decanal, linalool predominant. Product is a by-product of citrus, entirely of natural origin, and to the best of our knowledge and belief contains no artificial flavors, sulfites, nitrites, or pesticide residue exceeding tolerances established by the FDA. Does NOT contain lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromium or come in contact with these chemicals since it is a citrus derived essential oil produced by steam distillation. Packaged in food grade containers with inert liners that do NOT contain lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromium. Does NOT contain and is NOT manufactured with any of the Class I or II ozone-depleting substances listed under the United States Clean Air Act of 1990.

Section VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Use protective gloves to avoid skin contact. Small spills can be wiped up. Large spills should be absorbed by dirt, sand, or other suitable absorbents for disposal. Do not hose spills down drains, sewers, or waterways. D-Limonene may be toxic to aquatic organisms. Move leaking containers to well ventilated area. No smoking. Eliminate any source of ignition. Minimize inhalation. Use NIOSH approved respiratory protection device in areas of high vapor concentration. CAUTION: slippery on floor.

Section VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Respiratory Protection: Not normally required. If vapor concentration becomes high, use NIOSH approved respirators.
Ventilation: Local exhaust should be adequate. Mechanical ventilation otherwise recommended if necessary.
Skin Protection: Oil resistant gloves.
Eye Protection: Safety goggles or glasses suggested.
Other Protective Equipment: Oil resistant apron, emergency eye wash and shower stations.
Appropriate Hygienic Practices: Wash thoroughly after handling. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.
Section IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing: Usual precautions for combustible liquids.
Handling and Storage Precautions: Store in sprinklered warehouse. Avoid contact with incompatible chemicals listed in Section IV. Store in tightly sealed, full containers at temperatures below 70° F (21°C). Partially filled containers should be blanketed with nitrogen.
Other Precautions: Product may expand slightly in storage causing pressure to build in container. Open container carefully if product appears to be under pressure. Drum lining may occasionally chip and fall to bottom of container after long storage or excessive handling. As a precaution, pour liquid through filter/strainer to catch small pieces of liner before blending or repackaging. Commercially clean empty containers before re-use.
CAUTION: Do not weld or cut empty containers (Vapors May Ignite).
