Fix and Perm Buffer

Immediately move exposed subject to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is labored, administer oxygen. Immediately notify medical personnel and supervisor.

Wash exposed area with soap and water and remove contaminated clothing/shoes. If irritation occurs or persists, notify medical personnel and supervisor.

If easy to do, remove contact lenses, if worn. Immediately flush eyes with copious quantities of water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation occurs or persists, notify medical personnel and supervisor.

Do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel. Do not give anything to drink unless directed by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Notify medical personnel and supervisor.

Use water spray (fog), foam, dry powder, or carbon dioxide, as appropriate for surrounding fire and materials.

Combustible liquid and vapor. Keep away from heat and flame. Vapors are heavier than air and may flow along surfaces to remote ignition sources and flashback.

In case of a fire, keep containers cool with water and remove from fire area.

If product is released or spilled, take proper precautions to minimize exposure by using appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Do not breathe mist/vapors/spray.

For small spills, soak up material with absorbent, e.g., paper towels.

For large spills, cordon off spill area and minimize the spreading of spilled material. Soak up material with absorbent. Collect spilled material, absorbent, and rinse water into suitable containers for proper disposal in accordance with applicable waste disposal regulations (see Section 13).

Do not empty into drains. Avoid release to the environment.

Soak up material with absorbent. Collect spilled material, absorbent, and rinse water into suitable containers for proper disposal in accordance with applicable waste disposal regulations (see Section 13). Decontaminate the area twice with an appropriate solvent (see Section 9).

Materials: absorbent, e.g., paper towels

Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Do not permit eating/drinking/smoking near this material.

Store at 2-8 °C in a well-ventilated area; keep container upright and tightly closed.

Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not permit eating/drinking/smoking near this material.

Control to the OEL for formaldehyde. Selection and use of containment devices and personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment of exposure potential. Material should be handled inside a closed process, ventilated enclosure, isolator or device of equivalent or better control that is suitable for vapors and gases.

Wear nitrile or other impervious gloves if skin contact is possible. Double gloves should be considered.

Wear safety glasses with side shields, chemical splash goggles, or full face shield, if necessary. Base the choice of protection on the job activity and potential for contact with eyes or face. An emergency eye wash station should be available.

Choice of respiratory protection should be appropriate to the task and the level of existing engineering controls. For routine handling tasks, an approved and properly worn powered air-purifying respirator equipped with chemical cartridges or canisters should provide ancillary protection based on the known or foreseeable limitations of existing engineering controls. For escape, use one of the following respirator options: A self-contained breathing apparatus operated in the demand or pressure-demand mode; or a full facepiece respirator having a chin-style, or a front-or back-mounted industrial-size, canister or cartridge approved for protection against formaldehyde.

Wear appropriate gloves, lab coat, or other protective overgarment if skin contact is likely. Base the choice of skin protection on the job activity, potential for skin contact and solvents and reagents in use.

Avoid release to the environment and operate within closed systems wherever practicable. Air and liquid emissions should be directed to appropriate pollution control devices. In case of spill, do not release to drains. Implement appropriate and effective emergency response procedures to prevent release or spread of contamination and to prevent inadvertent contact by personnel.

Stable when stored as recommended.

Dispose of wastes in accordance to prescribed federal, state, and local guidelines, e.g., appropriately permitted chemical waste incinerator. Do not send down the drain or flush down the toilet. All wastes containing the material should be properly labeled. Rinse waters resulting from spill cleanups should be discharged in an environmentally safe manner, e.g., appropriately permitted municipal or on-site wastewater treatment facility.
