First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Immediately remove person to fresh air. If symptoms develop, seek medical attention.

Skin contact

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.

Eye contact

Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Ingestion

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.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Carbon dioxide or dry chemical for small fires. For large fires, use water spray or foam.

Specific hazards

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.

Instructions

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.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

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.

Environmental

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.

Cleanup methods

Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.

Materials: suitable containers

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

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.

Storage

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.

Hygiene

Wash thoroughly after handling.

Fire prevention

Keep away from heat, flame, excessive heat, sparks and other possible sources of ignition. No smoking in the area.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Provide sufficient ventilation to keep vapour concentration below the given TLV and/or PEL.

Hands

Impervious gloves must be worn when using this product. Advice should be sought from glove suppliers.

Eyes

Safety glasses with side-shields or chemical splash goggles.

Respiratory

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.

Skin/Body

Wear resistant clothing and boots.
