4. First-aid measures
If symptoms develop move victim to fresh air. If symptoms persist, obtain medical attention.Inhalation
Wash off with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.Skin contact
Flush with cool water. Remove contact lenses, if applicable, and continue flushing. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists.

If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible). Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Keep out of reach of children.
General information
5. Fire-fighting measures
Alcohol resistant foam. Powder. Carbon dioxide.Suitable extinguishing media
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.Unsuitable extinguishing media
During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.Specific hazards arising from the chemical
May include and are not limited to: Oxides of carbon.Hazardous combustion products
Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters
Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk.Fire fighting equipment/instructions
Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.Specific methods
No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted.General fire hazards
6. Accidental release measures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use water spray to reduce vapours or divert vapour cloud drift. This product is miscible in water.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Do not discharge into lakes, streams, ponds or public waters.
Environmental precautions
7. Handling and storage
Wash thoroughly after handling. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. When using do not eat or drink.
Precautions for safe handling
Store in tightly closed container. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of reach of children.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
8. Exposure controls/Personal protection
No exposure limits noted for ingredient(s).Occupational exposure limits
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).Biological limit values
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.
Appropriate engineering controls
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).Eye/face protection
Skin protection
Impervious gloves. Confirm with reputable supplier first.Hand protection
Wear suitable protective clothing. As required by employer code.Other
Where exposure guideline levels may be exceeded, use an approved NIOSH respirator.
Respirator should be selected by and used under the direction of a trained health and safety professional following requirements found in OSHA's respirator standard (29 CFR 1910.134), CAN/CSA-Z94.4 and ANSI's standard for respiratory protection (Z88.2).
Respiratory protection
Not applicable.Thermal hazards
Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. When using do not eat or drink.
