FIRST AID MEASURES4.1. Description of first aid measures
General advice Immediate medical attention is required. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in
attendance.
Inhalation Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur. IF exposed or
concerned: Get medical advice/attention.
Eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Keep
eye wide open while rinsing. Do not rub affected area. Get immediate medical
advice/attention. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Skin contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes
and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Ingestion Rinse mouth. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do NOT induce
vomiting. Call a doctor.
Self-protection of the first aider
Remove all sources of ignition. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s)
involved, take precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. Use
personal protective equipment as required. See section 8 for more information. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms Burning sensation.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Note to doctors Treat symptomatically.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES5.1. Extinguishing media
Suitable Extinguishing Media Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Water spray. Alcohol resistant foam.
Large Fire CAUTION: Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient.
Unsuitable extinguishing media Do not scatter spilled material with high pressure water streams.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards arising from the
chemical
Risk of ignition. Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition.
In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray. Fire residues and contaminated fire
extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
5.3. Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment and
precautions for fire-fighters
Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full firefighting turnout gear.
Use personal protection equipment.
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Use personal protective equipment as required. See
section 8 for more information. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Ensure adequate
ventilation. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. ELIMINATE all ignition sources
(no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Pay attention to flashback. Take
precautionary measures against static discharges. All equipment used when handling the
product must be grounded. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
Other information Ventilate the area. Refer to protective measures listed in Sections 7 and 8.
For emergency responders Use personal protection recommended in Section 8.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions Refer to protective measures listed in Sections 7 and 8. Prevent further leakage or spillage if
safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containment Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. A
vapour suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapours. Dyke far ahead of spill to collect
run-off water. Keep out of drains, sewers, ditches and waterways. Absorb with earth, sand
or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers for later disposal.
Methods for cleaning up Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Dam up. Soak up with inert
absorbent material. Pick up and transfer to properly labelled containers.
Prevention of secondary hazards Clean contaminated objects and areas thoroughly observing environmental regulations.
6.4. Reference to other sections
Reference to other sections See section 8 for more information. See section 13 for more information.
HANDLING AND STORAGE7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling Use personal protection equipment. Avoid breathing vapours or mists. Keep away from
heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Use
grounding and bonding connection when transferring this material to prevent static
discharge, fire or explosion. Use with local exhaust ventilation. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion-proof equipment. Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Use according to
package label instructions. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety
practice. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using
this product. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Take off contaminated clothing and
wash it before reuse. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
General hygiene considerations Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Regular cleaning of
equipment, work area and clothing is recommended. Wash hands before breaks and
immediately after handling the product. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Do not eat,
drink or smoke when using this product. Wash hands before breaks and after work. Wear
suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage Conditions Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat,
sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static
electricity). Keep in properly labelled containers. Do not store near combustible materials.
Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Store in accordance with the particular national
regulations. Store in accordance with local regulations. Store locked up. Keep out of the
reach of children. Please refer to the manufacturers certificate for specific storage and
transport temperature conditions. Store only in the original receptacle unless other advice is
given on the CoA.
