4. FIRST AID MEASURES

General advice Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Immediate medical attention is required.

Eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Do not rub affected area. Get immediate medical attention.

Skin contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. Get immediate medical attention.

Inhalation Remove to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention immediately. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. If breathing is difficult, (trained personnel should) give oxygen. Delayed pulmonary edema may occur. Get immediate medical attention.

Ingestion Rinse mouth. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do NOT induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention.

Self-protection of the first aider Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear personal protective clothing (see section 8). Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, take precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. Avoid direct contact with skin. Use barrier to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Symptoms Burning sensation.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Note to physicians Product is a corrosive material. Use of gastric lavage or emesis is contraindicated. Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should be investigated. Do not give chemical antidotes. Asphyxia from glottal edema may occur. Marked decrease in blood pressure may occur with moist rales, frothy sputum, and high pulse pressure.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Flash Point Does not flash Method Not applicable Flammability Limits in Air %: Hydrogen, by reaction with metals.

Upper flammability limit: 75 Lower flammability limit: 4

Suitable Extinguishing Media Water spray. Foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Specific hazards arising from the chemical Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Material can create slippery conditions.

Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, NOHSC (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.

NFPA Health hazards 3 Flammability 1 Stability 0 HMIS Health hazards 3 * Flammability 1 Physical Hazard 0

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal Precautions Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Material can create slippery conditions.

Environmental precautions Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Methods for Containment Contain spillage, soak up with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and transfer to a container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13).

Methods for Cleaning Up Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers.

Neutralizing Agent Acetic acid, diluted.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Do not breathe mist.

Storage Store in original container. Metal containers must be lined. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Freezing will affect the physical condition but will not damage the material.

Thaw and mix before using.

Storage Temperature Minimum 35 °F / 2 °C Maximum 120 °F / 49 °C Storage Conditions Indoor X Outdoor Heated Refrigerated

Engineering Measures Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction.

Personal Protective Equipment Eye/Face Protection Tightly fitting safety goggles. Face-shield.

Skin Protection Wear suitable protective clothing, Impervious gloves.

Respiratory Protection In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.

General Hygiene Considerations Wear protective gloves/clothing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
