Summary of Material Safety Data Sheets
This document comprises a collection of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) fire-fighting products manufactured by Chemguard, Inc. and Perimeter Solutions. The sheets provide comprehensive hazard identification, composition, handling, storage, and disposal information for three product formulations: Chemguard 3% AFFF C-301MS (revision dated 1/25/2006), Chemguard 3% AFFF C3LT (revision dated 1/26/2006), and Solberg® 3% MIL-SPEC SFFF (revision dated 10/18/2023). These aqueous film-forming foam concentrates are surfactant mixtures designed for professional fire-extinguishing use only. All products are classified as non-flammable liquids with flash points above 199.4°F and are stable under normal storage and handling conditions at temperatures between 35°F and 120°F, with the C3LT formulation accommodating a broader temperature range of -20°F to 120°F.
The products present minimal hazards, classified primarily as eye irritants (Category 1, H318) and skin irritants (Category 2, H315) with no carcinogenic properties. Key composition differences include water content ranging from 55-80%, with C3LT containing ethylene glycol at 18% concentration (requiring SARA Title III reporting at 5,000 lbs threshold) and various proprietary surfactants at undisclosed percentages. Storage requirements mandate original containers or appropriate end-use devices maintained within specified temperature ranges. Personal protective equipment requirements include side-shield safety glasses, latex gloves, and organic vapor respirators if needed. All products are non-regulated for transportation purposes and require compliance with local, state, and federal disposal regulations, with emphasis on preventing environmental spillage to drains and waterways. Waste disposal should follow EPA and RCRA frameworks, with anti-foam agents recommended for reducing foam in waste treatment streams.

3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Routes of entry: Dermal, inhalation and ingestion Potential Health Effects: May cause skin and eye irritation.
Carcinogenicity: Not a carcinogen.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air.
Skin: Rinse with water. Wash with soap and water. Contaminated clothing should be washed before re-use.
Eyes: Rinse with water. Call a physician.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: no flash to boiling Flammable Limits in air (lower % by volume): not evaluated Flammable Limits in air (upper % by volume): not evaluated Auto-ignition Temperature: not evaluated
General Hazards: None known.

Hazardous Combustion Products: various oxides of carbon, sulfur and nitrogen
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE
Contain spills. Vacuum or pump into storage containers, absorb smaller quantities with absorbent materials, and dispose of properly. Washing area with water will create large amounts of foam.
Dispose of released and contained material in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Release to local waste treatment plant only with permission.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Store in original container, or appropriate end-use device. Store at temperatures of 35 - 120 degrees F. If the material freezes, it may be thawed without loss of performance.
