First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove affected person from source of contamination. Move affected person to fresh air and keep warm and at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Keep affected person under observation. Get medical attention. Show this Safety Data Sheet to the medical personnel.
Symptoms: Vapours in high concentrations are anaesthetic. Symptoms following overexposure may include the following: Headache. Fatigue. Dizziness. Central nervous system depression.
Remove contaminated clothing and rinse skin thoroughly with water. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Symptoms: Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may cause irritation, redness and dermatitis.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Do not rub eye. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Symptoms: May cause temporary eye irritation.
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Give plenty of water to drink. Give milk instead of water if readily available. Keep affected person under observation. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention immediately. Show this Safety Data Sheet to the medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Keep affected person away from heat, sparks and flames.
Symptoms: May cause discomfort if swallowed. May cause stomach pain or vomiting. May cause nausea, headache, dizziness and intoxication. Fumes from the stomach contents may be inhaled, resulting in the same symptoms as inhalation. Congestion of the lungs may occur, producing severe shortness of breath.

Medical Treatment
No specific recommendations. If in doubt, get medical attention promptly.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide or dry powder. Use fire-extinguishing media suitable for the surrounding fire.
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Fire creates: Carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon dioxide (CO2). May form explosive mixture with air at very high concentration.
No specific firefighting precautions known.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Stop leak if possible without risk. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Provide adequate ventilation.
Cover large spillages with alcohol-resistant foam.
Do not discharge into drains or watercourses or onto the ground. Avoid the spillage or runoff entering drains, sewers or watercourses. Avoid discharge to the aquatic environment.
Absorb spillage with inert, damp, non-combustible material. Flush contaminated area with plenty of water. Collect and place in suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely.
Materials: inert, damp, non-combustible material

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Avoid inhalation of vapours. Observe any occupational exposure limits for the product or ingredients. Provide adequate ventilation.
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. It should be noted that liquid may penetrate the gloves. Frequent changes are recommended. It is recommended that gloves are made of the following material: Nitrile rubber.
Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates eye contact is possible. Unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection is required, the following protection should be worn: Tight-fitting safety glasses.
If ventilation is inadequate, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. Wear a respirator fitted with the following cartridge: Gas filter, type A2.
Provide eyewash station. Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact.
