First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to fresh air.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Get medical attention.
Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to do, remove contact lenses. Call a doctor or poison control centre immediately.
Rinse mouth. Call a doctor or poison control centre immediately. Never give liquid to an unconscious person. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention. Call a doctor or poison control centre immediately.
Medical Treatment
Symptoms may be delayed.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water Spray, Fog, CO2, Dry Chemical, or Standard Foam
Avoid water in straight hose stream; will scatter and spread fire.
Vapours may cause a flash fire or ignite explosively. Prevent buildup of vapours or gases to explosive concentrations.
No data available.
Firefighter Protection
Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Keep upwind. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep unauthorised personnel away.
Dyke far ahead of larger spill for later recovery and disposal.
Do not contaminate water sources or sewer. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid release to the environment.
Absorb spill with vermiculite or other inert material, then place in a container for chemical waste.
Materials: vermiculite or other inert material

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Do not taste or swallow. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Do not get in eyes. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Ground and bond container and receiving equipment. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use non-sparking tools. Use explosion-proof [electrical/ventilating/lighting] equipment. Avoid contact with skin. Use personal protective equipment as required. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. Remove contaminated clothing and wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water after work. See Section 8 of the SDS for Personal Protective Equipment.
Store locked up. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store in a cool place.
Do not eat, drink or smoke when using the product. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking or using the toilet.
Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Ground and bond container and receiving equipment. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use non-sparking tools.
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. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
Wear a full-face respirator, if needed. Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn.
Wear chemical-resistant gloves, footwear, and protective clothing appropriate for the risk of exposure. Contact health and safety professional or manufacturer for specific information.
