4. First aid measures
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical
attention.
Skin: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Wash contaminated
clothing before re-use. Destroy or thoroughly clean contaminated shoes.
Ingestion: If swallowed, only induce vomiting as directed by medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician or poison control centre immediately.
Notes to physician:
Treatment: Due to rapid absorption of material, evacuation of the stomach is effective only if
performed immediately after ingestion. Whenever possible, stomach evacuation should be
accomplished by gastric lavage with appropriate airway control to prevent aspiration.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Fire or excessive heat may produce hazardous decomposition products. Use water spray to keep fire-
exposed containers cool.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Elevated temperature can cause decomposition.
6. Accidental release measures
Absorb spill with vermiculite or other inert material, then place in a container for chemical waste. Clean
surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
7. Handling and storage
Personal precautions: Do not breathe mist or vapour at concentrations greater than the exposure limits.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
Prevention of Fire and Explosion: Keep from contact with oxidizing materials. Keep away from heat
and sources of ignition.
Storage: Keep container tightly closed. Store in cool place. Keep away from incompatible substances
(see Incompatibility section.)

Remarks: Can be absorbed through the skin.
OSHA Z1A time weighted average 5 ppm 20 mg/m3
OSHA Z1A Skin designation (Final Rule Limit applies):
Remarks: Can be absorbed through the skin.
Ventilation: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain
airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Controls should be sufficient so that applicable
occupational exposure limits are not exceeded.
Respiratory protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below
recommended exposure limits, an approved respirator must be worn. Respirator type: organic
vapour/P95. If respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with applicable
federal, state, commonwealth, provincial, or local laws and regulations.
Eye protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Hand protection: Wear impervious gloves and protective clothing appropriate for the risk of exposure.

11. Toxicological information
Effects of Exposure
General advice:
Contains: Hydroquinone. There is insufficient evidence for classifying hydroquinone as a
suspected carcinogenic or mutagenic substance in humans. No increases in cancer rates were
observed in an epidemiology study which looked at mortality among more than 800 persons
employed primarily in the manufacture of hydroquinone. Carcinogenicity studies in animals
were inconclusive. Rats and mice were given hydroquinone by stomach tube or at high
concentrations in the diet. Responses were not consistent across route of exposure, species or
sex. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified hydroquinone in
Group 3, i.e., "not classifiable" as a carcinogen. Hydroquinone is generally negative in bacterial
mutagenicity tests; there is evidence for the clastogenicity (chromosome breakage) of
hydroquinone in vivo and in vitro. The relevance of chromosomal effects in test animals in
predicting human risk is unclear.
Contains: Diethanolamine-sulphur dioxide complex. May cause liver damage based on animal
data. May cause kidney damage based on animal data.
Contains: Diethylene glycol. Can cause kidney damage and CNS effects following ingestion.
Repeated oral exposure to high doses can cause liver damage.
Contains: Diethanolamine. Based on animal data, may cause adverse effects on the following
organs/systems: kidney, liver, blood, nervous system, testes.
Contains: Ethylene glycol. Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Can cause kidney damage and CNS
effects based on human data. May cause adverse reproductive effects following ingestion
based on animal data.
Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. May cause irritation to the mucous membranes and upper respiratory
tract.
