If thermal decomposition occurs: May be harmful if inhaled. May be absorbed following inhalation and cause targel organ effects. Ingestion: Gastrointestinal Irritation: Signs/symptoms may include abdominal pain, stomach upset, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May be absorbed following ingestion and cause targel organ effects. Target Organ Effects: Central Nervous System (CNS) Depression: Signs/symptoms may include headache, dizziness, drowsiness, incoordination, nausea, slowed reaction time, slurred speech, giddiness, and unconsciousness.

Environmental effects

AQUATIC TOXICITY: Testing results indicate that methyl nonafluoroisobutyl ether and methyl nonafluorobutyl ether have insignificant toxicity to aquatic organisms at their saturation point (Lowesl LC50, EC50, or IC50 > substance water solubility). 1,2-Trans-dichloroethylene is harmful to aquatic organisms (IO mg/L < Lowest LC50, EC50, or ICS0 < I 00 mg/L). These compounds are highly volatile and have high Henry's Law constants and are thus expected to move rapidly through vaporization from solution in an aquatic compartment or from a soil surface in a terrestrial compartment to the atmosphere. BIOCONCENTRA TJON: Methyl nonafluoroisobutylether, and methyl nonafluorobutylether are highly insoluble and very volatile. Bioconcentration is therefore unlikely and not expected as they are not likely to enter aqueous waste streams from typical uses and disposal, or, in the case ofa spill, remain in the aquatic or terrestrial compartments. The high potential for these components to move from aquatic or terrestrial environments to the atmosphere indicates bioconcentration is unlikely to occur as they are not expected to be bioavailable. Thus, emphasis has been placed on lhe atmospheric fate. 1,2-Trans-dichloroethylene has an octanol/water partition coefficient of<3 indicating it is unlikely to bioconcentrate. ATMOSPHERJC FATE: This product has Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP). Page 2 of 9 43 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET HFE-71 OE 3M M Novec TM En ineered Fluid 10/23/2008 Atmospheric Lifetime: approximately 6 days for 1,2-trans-dichloroethylene and approximately 4.7 yr and 3.7 yr methyl for nonafluorobutyl ether and methyl nonafluoroisobutyl ether, respectively. Global Wanning Potential (GWP): 320 (JOO year 1TH, WMO 1998 method) for n-butyl and iso-butyl isomers and essentially zero for 1,2-trans-dichloroethylene. The mixture has a global warming potential of 160 on weight basis (100 year 1TH, WMO 1998 method). Atmospheric degradation products are expected to include for methyl nonafluoroisobutyl ether predominan1ly isoperfluorobutyric acid, CO2, HF, and perhaps also CF3COOH; for methyl nonafluorobutyl ether: n-perfluorobutyric acid, CO2, and HF. I SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES 4.1 FIRST AID PROCEDURES The following first aid recommendations are based on an assumption that appropriate personal and industrial hygiene practices are followed. Eye Contact: Flush eyes with large amounls of water. If signs/symptoms persist, get medical attention. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush skin with large amounts of water. Get medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing and clean shoes before reuse. Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. If signs/symptoms develop, get medical attention. If Swallowed: Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by medical personnel. Give victim two glasses of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Gel medical attenlion. I SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES 5.1 FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES Autoignition temperature 410°c Flash Point Not Applicable Flammable Limits - LEL [ Details: None ace to ASTM E68 l-94, @ I OOC) Flammable Limits - UEL [Details: None ace to ASTM E681-94, @ IOOC) 5.2 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Material will not bum. 5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Exposure to extreme heat can give rise to thermal decomposition. Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained breaihing apparatus (SCBA). Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: No unusual fire or explosion hazards are anticipated. Extreme conditions of heat (welding, open flame, misuse, or equipment failure) may produce decomposition products that include hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride. Note: See STABILITY AND REACTrVlTY (SECTION 10) for hazardous combustion and thermal decomposition information. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Page 3 of 9 44 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET HfJ;-71DE 3M(TM) ov<e(TM En~ineered Fluid 10123/2008 Accidental Release Measures Observe precautions from other sections.

Working from around the edges of the sp1\\ mward, cover with bemonite, vermiculite. or commercially available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible. Place in a closed container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible. In the even I of a release of this material, the user should determine if the release qualifies as reportable according to local, stale, and federal re ulations. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE 7.1 HANDLING Avoid eye contact with vapors. m isls. or spray. Avoid brealhing of vapors, mis1s or spray. Con1ents may be under pressure. open carefully. For industrial or professional use only. No smoking: Smoking while using this product can result in contamination of the tobacco and/or smoke and lead to the fom1ation of the hazardous decomposition products mentioned in the Reactivity Data section or this MSDS. Store work clothes separately from other clothing, food and tobacco products. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents. Use general dilution ventilation and/or local exhaust ventilation 10 control airborne exposures to below Occupational Exposure Limits. If ventilation is not adequate, use respiratory protection equipment. Avoid skin contact. Avoid continuous exposure of the material to exlreme conditions of heat, i.e., above I SOC (welding. open name, misuse nr equipment failure). Avoid exceeding a watt density of 50 watts/inch2 from a heater surface. Continuous exposure to 150C results in very slight decomposition of this product and, therefore, is a very conservative use temperature threshold. Applications involving exposure of the nuid to temperatures exceeding I 50C should be reviewed with 3M Technical Service.
