First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Immediately remove person to fresh air. If symptoms develop, seek medical attention.
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. Obtain medical attention if symptoms develop and persist. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Do NOT induce vomiting. Have victim rinse mouth with water, then give one to two glasses of water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek immediate medical attention/advice.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Carbon dioxide or dry chemical for small fires. For large fires, use water spray or foam.
Combustible liquid. This material may burn when exposed to extreme heat, flame and other ignition sources. Closed containers may rupture if exposed to excess heat or flame due to a build-up of internal pressure. Reacts with materials made of iron, galvanized steel and unlined steel, releasing flammable hydrogen gas, which may ignite.
Move containers from fire area if safe to do so. Water spray may be useful in cooling equipment exposed to heat and flame. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water spray used for cooling purposes.
Firefighter Protection
Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in positive pressure mode.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Restrict access to area until completion of clean-up. Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Stop the spill at source if it is safe to do so.
Ensure spilled product does not enter drains, sewers, waterways, or confined spaces. If necessary, dike well ahead of the spill to prevent runoff into drains, sewers, or any natural waterway or drinking supply.
Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.
Materials: suitable containers

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Wear chemically resistant protective equipment during handling. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Keep away from heat and flame. Use caution when opening cap. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area. Keep away from excessive heat, open flames, sparks and other possible sources of ignition. Keep away from incompatibles. Storage area should be clearly identified, clear of obstruction and accessible only to trained and authorized personnel. Inspect periodically for damage or leaks. No smoking in the area.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Keep away from heat, flame, excessive heat, sparks and other possible sources of ignition. No smoking in the area.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Provide sufficient ventilation to keep vapour concentration below the given TLV and/or PEL.
Impervious gloves must be worn when using this product. Advice should be sought from glove suppliers.
Safety glasses with side-shields or chemical splash goggles.
Not required under normal conditions of handling. In the event of an accidental discharge of the material which produces a heavy vapor or mist, workers should use respiratory protection. NIOSH-approved respirators are recommended. Seek advice from respiratory protection specialists.
Wear resistant clothing and boots.
