4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Skin Contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.
Ingestion If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.
Inhalation Move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammable Properties Flammable.
Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding
environment. Contact with water may cause violent frothing. Use: Carbon dioxide (CO2) -
Foam - Dry chemical
Hazardous Decomposition Products Oxides of carbon, hydrocarbons. Oxides of nitrogen. Hydrogen cyanide. Oxides of sulphur.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical
Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapours. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters
Use water spray to cool unopened containers. In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Keep away from
heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. May cause heat and pressure build-up in closed containers. Solvent vapors are heavier than
air and may spread along floors. Flash back possible over considerable distance.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Use personal protective equipment. Remove all
sources of ignition.
Environmental Precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary
sewer system.

Methods for Cleaning Up If spilled, contain spilled material and remove with inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated
absorbent, container and unused contents in accordance with local, state and federal
regulations.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Use only with adequate ventilation.Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene
and safety practice. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
When used in a mixture, read the labels and safety data sheets of all components. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Storage
Close container after each use. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. VAPORS MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE. Use only in an area
containing flame proof equipment. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors and other
sources of ignition during use and until all vapors are gone. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all windows and doors to achieve
cross ventilation.

Engineering Measures Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas
Personal Protective Equipment
Skin Protection Lightweight protective clothing, Apron, Impervious gloves
Eye/face Protection Safety glasses with side-shields
Respiratory Protection INDIVIDUALS WITH LUNG OR BREATHING PROBLEMS OR PRIOR REACTION TO
ISOCYANATES MUST NOT BE EXPOSED TO VAPOR OR SPRAY MIST. Do not breathe
vapor or spray mist. Wear an appropriate, properly fitted respirator (NIOSH/MSHA approved)
during and after application unless air monitoring demonstrates vapor/mist levels are below
applicable limits. An airline respirator (TC 19C NIOSH/MSHA) is recommended. A vapor-
particulate respirator (TC 23C NIOSH/MSHA) may be appropriate where air monitoring
demonstrates vapors are less than ten times the applicable exposure limits and the
isocyanate concentration is less than its applicable exposure limit. The use of an air-supplied
respirator is mandatory whenever the airborne concentration of isocyanate monomer is
unknown.
General Hygiene Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Considerations Avoid breathing dust created by cutting, sanding, or grinding.
