4. First aid measures
General advice
When symptoms persist or in all cases of doubt seek medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation
Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of vapours. If breathing is irregular or
stopped, administer artificial respiration. If unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical advice. If symptoms persist,
call a physician.
Skin contact
Do NOT use solvents or thinners. Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or
use recognized skin cleanser. If skin irritation persists, call a physician.
Eye contact
Remove contact lenses. Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyelids apart. Seek
medical advice.
Ingestion
If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. Do NOT induce vomiting. Keep at rest.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Hazardous combustion products
Fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous combustion products (see heading 10). Exposure to decomposition
products may be a hazard to health.
Fire and Explosion Hazards
Flammable liquid. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Remove all sources of ignition.

Extinguishing media which shall not be used for safety reasons
High volume water jet
Special Protective Equipment and Fire Fighting Procedures
Wear as appropriate: Full protective flameproof clothing. Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. In
the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Additional advice
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Additional information

6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
Keep in a well-ventilated place. Keep away from sources of ignition. Comply with safety directives (see chapters 7 and 8). Do not
inhale vapours.
Environmental precautions
Do not let product enter drains. Notify the respective authorities in accordance with local law in the case of contamination of
rivers, lakes or waste water systems.
Methods for cleaning up
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent materials, e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite, diatomaceous earth and
place in container for disposal according to local regulations. Clean preferably with a detergent; avoid use of solvents.
7. Handling and storage
Safe handling advice
Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapour in air and avoid vapour concentration higher than the
occupational exposure limits. The product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other sources of ignition
have been excluded. Preparation may charge electrostatically: always use grounded leads when transferring from one container
to another. Operators should wear antistatic footwear and clothing. No sparking tools should be used. Avoid skin and eye
contact. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. For
personal protection see section 8. Comply with the health and safety at work laws. If material is a coating, do not sand, flame
cut, braze or weld dry coating without an appropriate respirator or appropriate ventilation, and gloves.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Solvent vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Never use
pressure to empty container: container is not a pressure vessel. Always keep in containers of same material as the original one.
Storage
Requirements for storage areas and containers
Observe label precautions. Store between 5 and 25 C in a dry, well ventilated place away from sources of heat, ignition and
direct sunlight. No smoking. Prevent unauthorized access. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept
upright to prevent leakage.
Advice on common storage
Store separately from amines, oxidizing agents, strongly alkaline and strongly acidic materials.
8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Additional technical information on the plant
Provide adequate ventilation. This should be achieved by a good general extraction and -if practically feasible- by the use of a
local exhaust ventilation. If these are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and solvent vapour below the OEL,
suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

Protective equipment
Personal protective equipment should be worn to prevent contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
Respiratory protection
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
Hand protection
The breakthrough time of gloves is unknown for the product itself. The glove material given is recommended on basis of the
substances in the preparation.
Chemical Name Glove material Glove thickness Break through time
Viton (R) R
n-butyl acetate 0.7 mm 10 min
Nitrile rubber 0.33 mm 30 min
xylene Nitrile rubber 0.33 mm 30 min
R
Viton (R) 0.7 mm 480 min
R
solvent naphtha (petroleum), light arom. Viton (R) 0.7 mm 30 min
(<0,1% benzene)
The protective glove should be checked in each case for their work specific suitability (e.g. mechanical stability, product
compatibility, and anti-static properties). When the intended use is for spray application a nitrile glove of the chemical resistance
group 3 (e.g. Dermatril R glove) is to be used. After contamination, the glove has to be changed. If immersing the hands into the
product is not avoidable (e.g. maintenance work) a butyl or fluorocarbon rubber glove should be used. When skin exposure may
occur to materials specified in section 3 of this SDS, advice should be sought from the glove supplier as to appropriate type to
use with this product and the permeation breakthrough times. Care should be taken when working with sharp edged articles as
these can easily damage the gloves and make them ineffective. The instructions and information provided by the glove supplier
on use, storage, maintenance and replacement must be followed. Damaged gloves or those showing signs of wear should be
replaced immediately.
Eye protection
Wear protective eyewear for protection against solvent spatter.
Skin and body protection
Wear suitable protective clothing. Personnel should wear antistatic clothings made of natural fiber or of high temperature
resistant synthetic fiber.

Materials to avoid
Keep away from oxidising agents, strongly alkaline and strongly acid materials in order to avoid exothermic reactions. Store
separately from amines, oxidizing agents, strongly alkaline and strongly acidic materials.
Hazardous decomposition products
When exposed to high temperatures may produce hazardous decomposition products such as carbon monoxide and dioxide,
smoke, oxides of nitrogen.
11. Toxicological information
General observations
There is no data available on the product. See sections 3 and 15 for details.
Practical experience
Exposure to component solvents vapours concentration in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in adverse
health effect such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effect on kidney, liver and central nervous
system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and in extreme cases, loss
of consciousness. Through skin resorbtion, solvents can cause some of the effects described here. Repeated or prolonged
contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and
absorption through the skin. The liquid splashed in the eyes may cause irritation and reversible damage.
