SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES 

Skin contact : Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with warm water. 

Eye contact : In case of eye contact Hold eyelids apart and flush eyes with plenty of water 

for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention. 

Inhalation : Remove from exposure, lie down. Move to fresh air. Keep patient warm and 

at rest. Artificial respiration and/or oxygen may be necessary. Consult a 

physician. 

Ingestion : Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth 

to an unconscious person. Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water. If vomiting occurs, 

have victim lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Consult a physician. 

General advice : Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Victim to lie down in 

the recovery position, cover and keep him warm. Give oxygen or artificial 

respiration if needed. When symptoms persist or in all cases of doubt seek 

medical advice.

Material Safety Data Sheet 

Lower explosion limit : Method : None per ASTM E681 

Upper explosion limit : Method : None per ASTM E681 

Fire and Explosion Hazard 

Suitable extinguishing media : Water spray, Water mist, Dry chemical, Carbon dioxide (CO2) 

Firefighting Instructions : In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal 

protective equipment. Wear neoprene gloves during cleaning up work after a 

fire. Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health. 

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and 

the surrounding environment. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Cool 

containers / tanks with water spray. Fire residues and contaminated fire 

extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. 

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 

NOTE: Review FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES and HANDLING (PERSONNEL) sections before proceeding with cleanup. Use appropriate PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT during clean-up. 

Safeguards (Personnel) : Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ventilate area, especially low or enclosed 

places where heavy vapours might collect. In case of insufficient ventilation, 

wear suitable respiratory equipment. Refer to protective measures listed in 

sections 7 and 8. 

Spill Cleanup : Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, 

(e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for 

disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Do not 

flush with water. Do not let product enter drains. 

Accidental Release Measures : Prevent further leakage or spillage. Prevent spreading over a wide area (e.g. 

by containment or oil barriers). Do not allow contact with soil, surface or 

ground water. Prevent material from entering sewers, waterways, or Iow 

areas.

SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE 

Handling (Personnel) : Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid breathing vapours or mist. 

Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. For personal 

protection see section 8. 

Handling (Physical Aspects) : Material should not be dispensed from its container by pouring, except for 

small sample containers where fume hoods or where other ventilation is used 

to manage the exposure limits. The use of a drum pump is recommended for 

dispensing from shipping containers. 

Storage : Protect from contamination. To prevent leaks or spillages from spreading, 

provide a suitable liquid retention system. Keep container tightly closed in a 

dry and well-ventilated place. Store in original container. Avoid freezing 

temperatures. If stored below -10'C (147), mix pri or to use. 

No materials to be especially mentioned. For further information see Section 

10 of the safety data sheet. 

Storage temperature : < 52 9C (< 126 'F) 

SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION 

Personal protective equipment 

Respiratory protection : Wear NIOSH approved respiratory protection as appropriate. 

Eye protection : Wear safety glasses or coverall chemical splash goggles. 

Skin and body protection : Where there is potential for skin contact, have available and wear as 

appropriate, impervious gloves, apron, pants, jacket, hood and boots.
