Section 04 - First aid measures
After inhalation:
Get victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration or oxygen if breathing has stopped. Get prompt
medical attention. Do not give fluids if victim is unconscious.
After contact with skin:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water while removing contaminated clothing. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse. If redness or irritation occurs, seek medical attention.
After contact with eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper
and lower eyelids. Seek prompt medical attention if redness or irritation occurs.
After ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to a unconscious person. If swallowed do not induce vomiting.
Give large quantities of water. If available, give several glasses of milk. If vomiting occurs
spontaneously, keep airway clear. Seek medical attention immediately.

Version : 1 - 1 / USA Date of printing :03/17/2006
Special fire fighting procedure:
Use self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Direct application of a solid
stream of water or foam into hot burning product may cause frothing and increase the fire's
intensity.
Unusual fire and explosion Emits toxic and corrosive fumes under fire conditions. Fine
hazards: powder may present dust explosion hazard
Section 06 - Accidental release measures
Steps to be taken in case of spill or leak:
Contain spilled materials. If solid material, shovel or sweep up and place in a proper disposal
container or recover for recycling/reuse. If molten, it may be absorbed on an absorbant like oil
dry or sand, or allowed to cool and solidify, then removed by scraping.
Section 07 - Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling:
Store in cool, dry area. Avoid excessive heat. Keep away from sources of heat, sparks or open
flames.
Further info on storage conditions:
Store in original container.
Keep containers closed.
