See toxicological information (section 11)
Section 4. First aid measures
Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and
lower eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Skin contact : Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur. Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water.
Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. W ash
contaminated clothing thoroughly with water before removing or wear gloves. Wash clothing before
reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
Inhalation : Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur. Move exposed person to fresh air. If it is
suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate mask or self-contained
breathing apparatus. Keep person warm and at rest. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if
respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It may be
dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If unconscious, place in
recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing
such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. In the event of any complaints or symptoms, avoid further
exposure.

Ingestion : Get medical attention immediately. W ash out mouth with water. Remove dentures if any. Move
exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If material has been swallowed and the
exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink. Stop if the exposed person feels
sick as vomiting may be dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical
personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and
get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie,
belt or waistband.
Medical conditions : pulmonary conditions, skin disorders, eye disorders, respiratory conditions, allergies,
aggravated by
overexposure

discharge.
of Various
Flammable in the presence of the following materials or conditions: oxidizing materials.
Substances/Conditions
Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapor may travel a considerable distance to
source of ignition and flash back.
Explosion Hazards in : Not available.
Presence of Various
Substances/Conditions
Fire-fighting media and : SMALL FIRE: Use dry chemical powder.
LARGE FIRE: Use alcohol foam or water spray or fog. Cool containers with water jet in order to prevent
instructions
pressure build-up, auto-ignition or explosion.
Protective clothing (fire) : Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent.
Section 6. Accidental release measures
Spill and Leak : Immediately contact emergency personnel. Eliminate all ignition sources. Keep unnecessary personnel
away. Use suitable protective equipment. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
If emergency personnel are unavailable, contain spilled material. For small spills, add absorbent (soil
may be used in the absence of other suitable materials) and use a non-sparking or explosion-proof
means to transfer material to a sealable, appropriate container for disposal. For large spills, dike spilled
material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. Place spilled
material in an appropriate container for disposal.
Dispose of according to Section 13. If necessary, report spill to applicable government agency.
Section 7. Handling and storage
: Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Keep container closed. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Handling
Do not breathe vapor or mist. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static
electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and equipment before transferring material. Use
explosion-proof electrical (ventilating, lighting and material handling) equipment. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Use ventilation to remove decomposition products formed during welding or flame cutting of surfaces coated
with this product.
: Store in an approved area. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready
Storage
for use. Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame).
Other Precautions : All precautions must be observed. Empty container may retain product residues.
