SECTION 4- FIRST AID MEASURES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EYES:
IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES WITH A DIRECTED STREAM OF WATER for at least 15 minutes,
forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of all eye and lid tissue.
Washing eyes within several seconds is essential to achieve maximum effectiveness. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
SKIN:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse. IF IRRITATION
OCCURS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INHALATION:
Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, have trained person administer oxygen. If
respiration stops, have a trained person administer artificial respiration. GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
INGESTION:
NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN 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 and give more water.
GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
Acid-base status, electrolyte levels and liver function tests should be maintained.

There is limited information available on the environmental fate and effects of this
material. It has exhibited low to moderate toxicity in limited laboratory tests with
aquatic and terrestrial organisms. If released to aquatic or terrestrial environments, this
compound should not partion to the atmosphere. It is expected to biodegrade bot
aerobically and aneorobically, although a lag period may be required. Based on a modeled
BCF, this material is not expected to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms. Due caution
should be exercised to avoid the accidental release of this material to aquatic or
terrestrial environments.
