First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove to fresh air, keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, give artificial respiration. If unconscious, place in the recovery position and obtain immediate medical attention. Give nothing by mouth.

Symptoms: Harmful if inhaled. Exposure to solvent vapor concentrations may result in mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation.

Skin contact

Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use a recognized skin cleanser.

Symptoms: Causes skin irritation. Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin resulting in dryness, irritation and possible non-allergic contact dermatitis.

Eye contact

Irrigate copiously with clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyelids apart and seek medical attention.

Symptoms: Causes serious eye irritation. Splashes of liquid in the eyes may cause irritation and soreness with possible reversible damage.

Ingestion

If swallowed obtain immediate medical attention. Keep at rest. Do NOT induce vomiting.

Immediate Medical Attention

If unconscious, place in the recovery position and obtain immediate medical attention. If swallowed obtain immediate medical attention.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

SMALL FIRES: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. LARGE FIRES: Water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. CAUTION: For mixtures containing a high percentage of an alcohol or polar solvent, alcohol-resistant foam may be more effective.

Unsuitable media

Avoid using direct water stream.

Specific hazards

HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.

Instructions

Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk.

Firefighter Protection

Wear positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus, (SCBA) with a full face piece and protective clothing. Persons without respiratory protection should leave area. Wear SCBA during clean-up immediately after fire.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

Large spill

Dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Water spray may reduce vapor; but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces.

Environmental

Do not allow spills to enter drains or waterways.

Cleanup methods

Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Handle containers carefully to prevent damage and spillage. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not use sparking tools. Take precautionary measures against static charges. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Do not breathe mist, vapors and/or spray. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, avoid direct contact. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, or using tobacco.

Storage

Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool/low-temperature, well-ventilated place.

Hygiene

Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, or using tobacco.

Fire prevention

Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not use sparking tools. Take precautionary measures against static charges. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction.

Hands

Wear PVC or rubber gloves to keep skin contact to a minimum. Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the suitability of any gloves used.

Eyes

Wear safety glasses with side shields to protect the eyes. An eye wash station is suggested as a good workplace practice.

Respiratory

If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit they must use the appropriate, certified respirators. If these are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and any vapor below occupational exposure limits suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

Skin/Body

Wear PVC or rubber gloves to keep skin contact to a minimum. Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the suitability of any gloves used.
