SPECTRASYN™ 2

Immediately remove from further exposure. Get immediate medical assistance. For those providing assistance, avoid exposure to yourself or others. Use adequate respiratory protection. Give supplemental oxygen, if available. If breathing has stopped, assist ventilation with a mechanical device.

Wash contact areas with soap and water. If product is injected into or under the skin, or into any part of the body, regardless of the appearance of the wound or its size, the individual should be evaluated immediately by a physician as a surgical emergency. Even though initial symptoms from high pressure injection may be minimal or absent, early surgical treatment within the first few hours may significantly reduce the ultimate extent of injury.

Flush thoroughly with water. If irritation occurs, get medical assistance.

Symptoms: If irritation occurs

Seek immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting.

Symptoms: If ingested, material may be aspirated into the lungs and cause chemical pneumonitis.

Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames.

Straight streams of water

Hazardous material.

Evacuate area. Prevent run-off from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers or drinking water supply. Fire-fighters should use standard protective equipment and in enclosed spaces, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel.

Avoid contact with spilled material. Warn or evacuate occupants in surrounding and downwind areas if required, due to toxicity or flammability of the material.

Dyke far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.

Large Spills: Dyke far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.

Recover by pumping or with suitable absorbent (Land Spill). Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents (Water Spill).

Materials: suitable absorbent

Avoid breathing mists or vapour. Prevent small spills and leakage to avoid slip hazard.

The type of container used to store the material may affect static accumulation and dissipation. Do not store in open or unlabelled containers.

Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). When the material is handled in bulk, an electrical spark could ignite any flammable vapors from liquids or residues that may be present (e.g., during switch-loading operations). Use proper bonding and/or earthing procedures.

The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary depending upon potential exposure conditions. Control measures to consider: Adequate ventilation should be provided whenever the material is heated or mists are generated.

Any specific glove information provided is based on published literature and glove manufacturer data. Glove suitability and breakthrough time will differ depending on the specific use conditions. Contact the glove manufacturer for specific advice on glove selection and breakthrough times for your use conditions. Inspect and replace worn or damaged gloves. The types of gloves to be considered for this material include: - No protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use.

If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended.

If engineering controls do not maintain airborne contaminant concentrations at a level which is adequate to protect worker health, an approved respirator may be appropriate. Respirator selection, use, and maintenance must be in accordance with regulatory requirements, if applicable. Types of respirators to be considered for this material include: - Particulate air-purifying respirator approved for dust or oil mist is recommended. For high airborne concentrations, use an approved supplied-air respirator, operated in positive pressure mode. Supplied air respirators with an escape bottle may be appropriate when oxygen levels are inadequate, gas/vapour warning properties are poor, or if air purifying filter capacity/rating may be exceeded.

Any specific clothing information provided is based on published literature or manufacturer data. The types of clothing to be considered for this material include: - No skin protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precautions should be taken to avoid skin contact.

Comply with applicable environmental regulations limiting discharge to air, water and soil. Protect the environment by applying appropriate control measures to prevent or limit emissions.

Material is stable under normal conditions.

Hazardous polymerization will not occur.

Excessive heat. High energy sources of ignition.

Strong oxidizers

Material does not decompose at ambient temperatures.
