SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview
FLAMMABLE AEROSOL. Vapours may catch fire. Content under pressure. Prolonged or excessive inhalation may cause
central nervous system depression. May cause eye and skin irritations.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS (for more details, refer to Section 11)
Primary entry route(s): Skin, eye, ingestion and inhalation.
Effects of short-term (acute) and long-term (chronic) exposure:
Inhalation:
Prolonged or excessive inhalation may cause central nervous system depression. May cause headache, nausea, dizziness,
vomiting and incoordination. May be irritating to respiratory tract. Long-term exposure may cause lung damage.
Skin:
May cause moderate skin irritations.
Eye:
May cause slight to moderate eye irritations.
Ingestion:
N/Ap: not applicable N/Av: not available Page 1 of 6
Material Safety Data Sheet:
SAFETY EXPRESS LTD WIPE OUT
May cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea and diarrhea.
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation:
Remove source of contamination or have victim move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give
artificial respiration. Obtain medical attention immediately.
Skin contact:
Flush contaminated area with lukewarm, gently running water for at least 20 minutes. If irritation persists, obtain medical
advice.
Eye contact:
Immediately flush the contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm, gently flowing water for at least 20 minutes. Obtain medical
attention immediately.
Ingestion:
NEVER give anything by mouth if victim is rapidly losing consciousness, or is unconscious or convulsing. Rinse mouth
thoroughly with water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Have victim drink two glasses of water. If vomiting occurs
naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. Repeat administration of water. Obtain medical attention
immediately.
SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire hazards/conditions of flammability: FLAMMABLE AEROSOL according to flame projection (< 100 cm) and no
flashback. Does burn under normal handling conditions.
Flash point (Method): N/Av
Lower flammable limit (% by volume): N/Av
Upper flammable limit (% by volume): N/Av
Sensitivity to mechanical impact: Aerosols may explode or become projectiles after a mechanical impact.
Sensitivity to static discharge: N/Av
Auto-ignition temperature: N/Av
Suitable extinguishing media:
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder and appropriate foam.
Special fire-fighting procedures/equipment:
During a fire, irritating/toxic smoke and fumes may be generated. Vapours can accumulate in confined spaces, resulting in a
toxicity and flammability hazard. A self-contained breathing apparatus is required for fire-fighting personnel to protect
themselves from toxic products produced during the combustion. Closed containers may explode with the pressure building
from the heat. Use water to cool fire exposed containers and prevent this situation.
Hazardous combustion products:
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other irritant gases, which may include toxic constituents.
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions:
N/Ap: not applicable N/Av: not available Page 2 of 6
Material Safety Data Sheet:
SAFETY EXPRESS LTD WIPE OUT
Restrict access to area until completion of clean-up. Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Remove all
ignition sources. Remove or isolate flammable and combustible materials. Wear adequate personal protective equipment (See
Section 8). Ventilate area.
Spill response/Cleanup:
Stop the flow if it can be done safely. Keep materials which can burn away from spilled material. Prevent material from
entering waterways, sewers or confined spaces. Put material in suitable, covered, labelled containers.
Environmental precautions:
Confine spill, preventing it from entering sewer lines or waterways. Dispose of as per local, state and federal regulations.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Safe handling procedures:
Before handling, it is very important that engineering controls are operating and that protective equipment requirements and
personal hygiene measures are being followed. People working with this chemical should be properly trained regarding its
hazards and its safe use. Do not use near welding operations, flames or hot surfaces. Ensure proper ventilation after sealed
area has been treated. Inspect containers for leaks before handling. Label containers appropriately. Keep containers closed
when not in use. Empty containers are always dangerous. Assume that empty containers contain residues which are
hazardous. Do not use with incompatible materials.
Storage requirements:
Store in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from heat and ignition sources. Keep storage area clear of ignition sources. Store
away from incompatible materials. Inspect all incoming containers to make sure they are properly labelled and not damaged.
Store in suitable, labelled containers. Keep containers tightly closed. Empty containers are always dangerous. Storage area
should be clearly identified, clear of obstruction and accessible only to trained personnel. Inspect periodically for damage or
leaks.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering controls:
None required under normal handling conditions. Local exhaust ventilation system is recommended to maintain
concentrations of contaminants below exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection:
None required under normal handling conditions. Respiratory protection is required if the concentrations are higher than the
exposure limits. Use a NIOSH approved respirator if the exposure limits are unknown.
Protective Clothing/Equipment:
If necessary, wear chemically protective gloves (impervious), and other protective clothing to prevent prolonged or repeated
skin contact. Wear protective chemical safety glasses to prevent prolonged or repeated eye contact. Make emergency
eyewash stations, safety/quick-drench showers, and washing facilities available in work area.
Comments:
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing this product. Never eat, drink, or smoke in work areas. Practice good
personal hygiene after using this material.
