4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Hold eyelids apart and flush continuously with water. Continue until advised to stop by the Poisons Information
Centre, a doctor, or for at least 15 minutes. Keep patient calm.
Inhalation Leave area of exposure immediately. If assisting a victim avoid becoming a casualty, wear a Type A (Organic
vapour) respirator where an inhalation risk exists. If victim is not breathing apply artificial respiration and seek
urgent medical attention.
Skin Remove contaminated clothing and gently flush affected areas with water. Seek medical attention if irritation
develops. Launder clothing before reuse.
Ingestion For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 (Australia Wide) or a doctor.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability Combustible. May evolve benzoic acid, carbon oxides, benzene, biphenyls, phenyl benzoate and terphenyls when
heated to decomposition (> 65 C). Burns fiercely. DO NOT HEAT - MAY EXPLODE.
Fire and Combustible - may decompose violently or explode in fire situation. Evacuate area and contact emergency
services. Toxic gases (benzoic acid, biphenyls, benzene, carbon oxides, phenyl benzoate) may be evolved.
Explosion
Remain upwind and notify those downwind of hazard. Wear full protective equipment (see spill above) including
Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) when combating fire. Use water fog to cool intact containers and
nearby storage areas.
Extinguishing Dry agent, carbon dioxide, foam or water fog. Prevent contamination of drains or waterways, absorb runoff with
sand or similar.
Hazchem Code None Allocated
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spillage If spilt (bulk), contact emergency services. Wear splash-proof goggles, barrier gloves, a Type A (Organic vapour)
respirator (or Air-line respirator in poorly ventilated areas), coveralls and boots. Ventilate and clear area of all
unprotected personnel. Eliminate heat and ignition sources. Absorb spill with sand or similar and place in sealable
containers for disposal. Prevent spill entering drains or waterways.
7. STORAGE AND HANDLING
Storage Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area, removed from direct sunlight, oxidising agents, acids, alkalis, amines,
specific incompatibilities, heat sources and foodstuffs. Ensure containers are adequately labelled, protected from
physical damage and sealed when not in use. Check regularly for leaks or spills. Large storage areas should have
appropriate fire protection and ventilation systems.
Handling Before use carefully read the product label. Use of safe work practices are recommended to avoid eye or skin
contact and inhalation. Observe good personal hygiene, including washing hands before eating. Prohibit eating,
drinking and smoking in contaminated areas (eg. if container is damaged).
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Ventilation Do not inhale vapours. Use in well ventilated areas. In poorly ventilated areas, mechanical explosion proof
extraction ventilation is recommended.

Information
ORGANIC PEROXIDES: Fires involving organic peroxides can be intense and move rapidly due to product rapid
decomposition with release of oxygen and may involve explosions. If spilt on combustible materials it may
spontaneously ignite. A diluent is often added to organic peroxides to reduce shock sensitivity.
SYNERGISM - ANTAGONISM: Ingredients in this product may act together to aggravate or reduce adverse
effects. Accordingly the time weighted average concentration (TWA) provided for single ingredients should be
considered as a guide only and all due care exercised when handling.

product, adverse health effects may be avoided by the use of appropriate engineering controls and/or personal
protective equipment. If welding, wear a Class P2 (Metal fume) respirator and depending on the nature of the
surface being welded, additional protection (eg. for organic vapours/acid gas) may also be required. A Class P1
(Particulate) respirator is recommended if dust is generated.
