4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Remove the victim from the area of exposure. Wash off remaining material with plenty of water. In the event of any complaints or symptoms, avoid further exposure.

Immediately consult a doctor.

Inhalation: If vapours or mists have been inhaled, and irritation has developed or victim feels unwell, remove the source of contamination or move victim to fresh air. Keep the patient under observation. If irritation persists or patient feels unwell, obtain medical attention.

Skin: Remove contaminated clothing, shoes and leather goods. Wash skin gently and thoroughly with cold water and non-abrasive soap. Do not rub the skin. Apply olive oil to affected areas for prompt relief. Get medical attention if irritation occurs and persists.

Eyes: Flush eyes immediately with large amounts of gently flowing cold water, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of chemical remains (approximately 15 to 20 minutes). Immediately get medical attention.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting due to aromatic solvent. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If the person is alert, rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Obtain medical attention immediately. Treat respiratory difficulty with artificial respiration and oxygen. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, have victim lean forward with head down to avoid breathing in of vomitus.

Causes mild skin irritation.

Causes serious eye damage.

Harmful if inhaled.

Anticipated delayed effects: None known.

Most important symptoms: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, ataxia, unsteady gait, hyperexcitability, salivation, tremors and incontinence.

Advice to physician: There is no specific antidote available.

This product contains materials that may cause severe pneumonitis if aspirated. In cases of ingestion, consider gastric lavage however prevent aspiration. Observe patient for respiratory difficulty from aspiration pneumonitis. Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Larger doses may cause convulsions and loss of consciousness.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Extinguish fires with carbon dioxide, dry powder, or alcohol-resistant foam.

Water spray can be used for cooling of unaffected stock, but avoid water coming in contact with the product. Use as little water as possible. Use spray or fog. Solid stream may cause spreading. Contain water used for fire fighting for later disposal.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: High volume water jet.

Use a water jet only to cool heated containers.

Specific hazards: Fire may produce irritating or poisonous vapours, and may include hydrocarbons, ammonia, organic and acid halids, oxides of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur mists or other products of combustion.

Special fire-fighting procedures: Remove spectators from surrounding area. Isolate the fire area and evacuate all personnel downwind of the fire. Fight fire from maximum distance and use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles. Remain upwind of fire. Avoid inhaling hazardous vapours and fumes from burning materials.

Remove container from fire area if possible and without risk. Do not use high volume water jet, due to contamination risk. Do not scatter the burning material.

Water can be used to cool unaffected containers but must be contained for later disposal. Contain fire control agents for later disposal. Avoid pollution of waterways by run-off from the site.

Personal protective equipment: Wear NIOSH / MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions: Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Do not breathe in spray mist or fumes. Ventilate area of spill or leak, especially in contained areas.

Protective equipment: Refer to Section 8 for personal protective equipment to be worn during containment and clean-up of a spill involving this product.

Emergency procedures: Alert firefighting personnel, evacuate unprotected personnel and animals.

Environmental Precautions: Prevent spilled product from entering sewers, waterways or ground water. This product is classified as very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Any spillages or uncontrolled discharges into watercourses should be reported immediately to the police and the Department of Water / Environmental Affairs.

Methods and Materials for Containment: For small liquid spills, soak up with lime, damp earth or sand, or other non-combustible absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal.

Methods and Materials for Clean-up: Remove all sources of flames and sparks. For small liquid spills, soak up with lime, damp earth or sand, or other non-combustible absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal. For large liquid spills, contain the liquid for later disposal. Label containers with the contents and dispose of according to local regulations.
