First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Symptoms: Burning pain and severe corrosive skin damage.
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Symptoms: Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Permanent eye damage including blindness could result.
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor.
Medical Treatment
Specific treatment (see information on this label).
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Foam. Powder. Carbon dioxide.
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.
Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
Firefighter Protection
Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing.
Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb spillage to prevent material damage. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Use water spray to reduce vapors or divert vapor cloud drift. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Store locked up. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use good industrial hygiene practices in handling this material. When using do not eat or drink.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Impervious gloves. Confirm with reputable supplier first.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield.
Where exposure guideline levels may be exceeded, use an approved NIOSH respirator. Respirator should be selected by and used under the direction of a trained health and safety professional following requirements found in OSHA's respirator standard (29 CFR 1910.134), CAN/CSA-Z94.4 and ANSI's standard for respiratory protection (Z88.2).
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. As required by employer code.
