4. FIRST AID MEASURES
For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre (e.g. phone Australia 131 126; New Zealand 0800 764 766) or a doctor.
Inhalation:
Remove victim from area of exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and loosen remaining
clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until fully recovered. If patient
finds breathing difficult and develops a bluish discolouration of the skin (which suggests a lack of oxygen in the blood -
cyanosis), ensure airways are clear of any obstruction and have a qualified person give oxygen through a face mask.
Apply artificial respiration if patient is not breathing. Seek immediate medical advice.
Skin Contact:
If skin or hair contact occurs, immediately remove any contaminated clothing and wash skin and hair thoroughly with
running water. A component of this material can be absorbed through the skin with resultant toxic effects. Seek immediate
medical assistance.
Eye Contact:
If in eyes, hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running water. Continue flushing until advised to stop by
the Poisons Information Centre or a doctor, or for at least 15 minutes.
Ingestion:
Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water. Seek immediate medical
assistance.
Medical attention and special treatment:
Treat symptomatically.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Hazards from combustion products:
Highly flammable liquid. On burning will emit toxic fumes, including those of oxides of carbon .
Precautions for fire fighters and special protective equipment:
Keep containers cool with water spray. If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. Fire fighters to wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of combustion.
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Alcohol resistant foam is the preferred firefighting medium but, if it is not available, normal protein foam can be used.
Hazchem Code: ?3YE
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Emergency procedures:
If contamination of sewers or waterways has occurred advise local emergency services.

Safety Data Sheet
Methods and materials for containment and clean up:
Shut off all possible sources of ignition. Clear area of all unprotected personnel. Slippery when spilt. Avoid accidents,
clean up immediately. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact and breathing in vapours. Work up
wind or increase ventilation. Contain - prevent run off into drains and waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert
material). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling: Avoid skin and eye contact and breathing in vapour, mists and aerosols. May form
flammable vapour mixtures with air. All potential sources of ignition (open flames, pilot lights, furnaces, spark producing
switches and electrical equipment etc) must be eliminated both in and near the work area. Do NOT smoke. Flameproof
equipment is necessary in all areas where this chemical is being used. Nearby equipment must be earthed. Vapour may
travel a considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back.
Conditions for safe storage: Store away from sources of heat or ignition. Store away from incompatible materials
described in Section 10. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for leaks.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Occupational Exposure Limits: No value assigned for this specific material by the New Zealand Occupational Safety
and Health Service (OSH). However, Workplace Exposure Standard(s) for constituent(s):
2-Butoxyethanol: WES-TWA 25 ppm, 121 mg/m3, skin
Ethyl alcohol: 8hr WES-TWA = 1,000 ppm (1,880 mg/m3)
Xylene (o-, m-, p-isomers): WES-TWA 50 ppm, 217 mg/m3
As published by the New Zealand Occupational Safety and Health Service (OSH).
WES - TWA (Workplace Exposure Standard - Time Weighted Average) - The eight-hour, time-weighted average
exposure standard is designed to protect the worker from the effects of long-term exposure.
`Sk' Notice - absorption through the skin may be a significant source of exposure. The exposure standard is invalidated if
such contact should occur.
These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept to as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as fine
dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative toxicity.
Engineering controls:
Ensure ventilation is adequate and that air concentrations of components are controlled below quoted Exposure
Standards. Vapour heavier than air - prevent concentration in hollows or sumps. DO NOT enter confined spaces where
vapour may have collected. Keep containers closed when not in use.
Personal Protective Equipment:
The selection of PPE is dependant on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work
situation, the physical form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors.

Safety Data Sheet
Ingestion: Swallowing can result in nausea, vomiting and central nervous system depression. If
the victim is showing signs of central system depression (like those of drunkeness)
there is greater likelihood of the patient breathing in vomit and causing damage to
the lungs. Breathing in vomit may lead to aspiration pneumonia (inflammation of the
lung).
Eye contact: An eye irritant.
Skin contact: Contact with skin may result in irritation. Will have a degreasing action on the skin.
Repeated or prolonged skin contact may lead to irritant contact dermatitis.
Component/s of this material can be absorbed through the skin with resultant toxic
effects.
Inhalation: Material may be irritant to the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract (airways).
Breathing in vapour can result in headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, and possible
nausea. Breathing in high concentrations can produce central nervous system
depression, which can lead to loss of co-ordination, impaired judgement and if
exposure is prolonged, unconsciousness.
Long Term Effects:
No information available for the product.
