SPECTRASYN™ 40

Remove from further exposure. If breathing has stopped, assist ventilation with a mechanical device or use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

Symptoms: respiratory irritation, dizziness, nausea, or unconsciousness

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.

Symptoms: initial symptoms from high pressure injection may be minimal or absent

Flush thoroughly with water.

Symptoms: irritation

First aid is normally not required.

Symptoms: discomfort

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

Straight streams of water

Evacuate area. Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel.

In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable regulations. Avoid contact with spilled material.

Dyke far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal.

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. Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents.

Materials: suitable absorbent

Prevent small spills and leakage to avoid slip hazard. Material is a static accumulator.

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

Use proper bonding and/or earthing procedures. Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). Consult local applicable standards for guidance (API 2003, NFPA 77, CENELEC CLC/TR 50404).

No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation.

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: No protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use and with adequate ventilation. 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.

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.

See sub-sections below.

Hazardous polymerization will not occur.

Excessive heat. High energy sources of ignition.

Strong oxidisers

Material does not decompose at ambient temperatures.

Product is suitable for burning in an enclosed controlled burner for fuel value or disposal by supervised incineration at very high temperatures to prevent formation of undesirable combustion products.
