SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact - Get medical attention immediately. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the
upper and lower eyelids. Remove any contact lenses. Continue washing for up to 15 minutes.
Skin Contact - Immediately rinse contaminated skin under running water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get
medical attention if symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse and clean shoes.
Inhalation - Move the exposed person to fresh air. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular, or if respiratory arrest occurs,
immediately contact a paramedic, doctor, or poison control center. Provide oxygen by trained personnel. It
may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth to mouth resuscitation. Maintain open airway and
loosen any tight clothing. In case of inhalation of product due to fire, symptoms may be delayed. The
exposed person should be monitored for at least 48 hours. For irritation, or any systemic symptoms get
medical help.
Ingestion - Wash out mouth with water and move person to fresh air. Immediately consult a physician or poison control
center. Do NOT induce vomiting, unless instructed. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Note to Physician ?Exposure may cause asthma-like symptoms or aggravate pre-existing asthma or other respiratory disorders.
Bronchodilators, expectorants, and antitussives may be of help. Treat bronchospasm with inhaled beta2 angonist and oral or
parenteral corticosteroids. Symptomatic and supportive therapy as needed. Persons receiving significant exposure should be
monitored for at least 48 hours.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Autoignition Temp - Not determined
Flash Point - >230篎/110篊
Flammable Limits ? LFL/UFL Not applicable
OSHA Flame Class - IIIB
Combustion Products ?Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide, nitrous Oxide and HCN.
Unusual Hazards - Sealed containers can rupture violently when exposed to fire or heated.
Extinguishing Media ?SMALL FIRE: Use dry chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam. Do NOT use
direct water stream. May spread fire. Keep people away.
Protective Clothing ?Splash goggles. Full suit. Boots. Gloves. A self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be used
to avoid inhalation of product.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Inform relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil, etc.)
Protect people ? Isolate area. Keep personnel out of low areas. Keep upwind of spill. Ventilate area of leak or spill.
Small Spill ? Clean up should be performed by trained personnel. People dealing with major spillages should wear full
protective clothing including appropriate respiratory protection. Evacuate the area. Prevent further
leakage, spillage, or entry into drains.
Large Spill - Contain and absorb large spillages into an inert, non-flammable absorbent carrier (such as sand or
vermiculite). Shovel into open-top drums or plastic bags for further decontamination. Wash the spillage
area clean with liquid decontaminant. Remove and properly dispose residues via licensed waate disposal.
Decontaminant ? Prepare a decontamination solution of 0.2%-0.5% liquid detergent and 3-8% concentrated ammonium
hydroxide in water (5-10% sodium carbonate may be substituted for ammonium hydroxide). Allow
deactivated material to stand for at least 30 minutes before shoveling into drums. Do not tighten the
bungs. Mixing with wet earth is also effective, but slower.

Preventive measures ?Conditions of use, adequacy of engineering or other control measures, and actual exposures will dictate
the need for specific protective devices in your workplace.
Engineering controls ?Use only with adequate ventilation. Provide general and/or local exhaust ventilation . Exhaust systems
should be designed to move air away from the source of vapor and the people working.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes ?Chemical safety goggles.
Skin ?Use protective clothing chemically resistant to this material. Selection of specific items such as face shield,
gloves, boots, apron, or full body suit will depend on operation. Gloves ?neoprene, nitrate rubber, butyl

immediately, wash skin area with soap and water.
Respiratory - Use a properly fitted, air purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary, such as spray operations. Not required for well ventilated areas if not
spraying.
Persons with respiratory problems including asthmatic type conditions, chronic bronchitis, other chronic
respiratory diseases or recurrent skin eczema or skin allergies should be evaluated for their suitability of
