4. First-aid measures
Inhalation Move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if
victim inhaled the substance. Induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped
with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. IF exposed or concerned: Get
medical advice/attention.
Skin contact Wash contact areas with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated
clothing before reuse. If skin irritation or an allergic skin reaction develops, get medical attention.
Eye contact Flush thoroughly with water. If irritation occurs, get medical assistance.
Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of
aspiration. Call a poison control center immediately.
Most important Defatting of the skin. Discomfort in the chest. Coughing.
symptoms/effects, acute and
delayed
Indication of immediate Treat symptomatically.
medical attention and special
treatment needed
General information Contact physician if discomfort continues. Keep victim under observation.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Halon. Dry chemicals. Foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Water spray or fog. Do not use water jet as an
extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Specific hazards arising from No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted.
the chemical
Special protective equipment Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure demand
and precautions for breathing apparatus, protective clothing and face mask.
firefighters
Fire-fighting Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out. Firefighters must use
equipment/instructions standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with face shield, gloves,
rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA. Use pressurized air mask if product is involved in a
fire.
General fire hazards No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Flammability Class: Combustible IIIB

6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, Keep unnecessary personnel away. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot
protective equipment and be contained. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not touch
emergency procedures damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure
adequate ventilation.
Methods and materials for Large Spills: ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate
containment and cleaning up area). Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth or
absorbent material then place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.

Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements
or confined areas. Avoid discharge to the aquatic environment. Contact local authorities in case of
spillage to drain/aquatic environment.

7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling DO NOT handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect
material from direct sunlight. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Wash hands after
handling and before eating. Do not get this material in contact with eyes. Avoid contact with skin.
Avoid prolonged exposure. All handling to take place in well-ventilated area. Shower after work.
Remove and wash contaminated clothing promptly.
Conditions for safe storage, Store locked up. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Store in a well-ventilated place. Use
including any care in handling/storage.

Biological limit values No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Appropriate engineering Adequate ventilation should be provided whenever the material is heated or mists are generated.
controls Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should
be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure
limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Goggles/face shield are recommended.
Hand protection Chemical resistant gloves are recommended. If contact with forearms is likely wear gauntlet style
gloves.
