IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYE WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE
HOLDING EYELIDS OPEN AND OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION OCCURS.
INGESTION:
WASH OUT MOUTH WITH WATER. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION. DO NOT INDUCE
VOMITING. IF VOMITING OCCURS SPONTANEOUSLY, KEEP HEAD BELOW THE HIPS TO
PREVENT ASPIRATION. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
| 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES | |
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
USE FOAM, WATER SPRAY OR FOG. DRY CHEMICAL POWDER, CARBON DIOXIDE, SAND OR
EARTH MAY BE USED FOR SMALL FIRES ONLY.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: WATER IN A JET.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
DO NOT ENTER ANY ENCLOSED OR CONFINED FIRE SPACE WITHOUT PROPER PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT INCLUDING SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. KEEP ADJACENT
CONTAINERS COOL BY SPRAYING WITH WATER.
COMBUSTION PRODUCTS:
NORMAL COMBUSTION FORMS CARBON DIOXIDE AND WATER VAPOUR. INCOMPLETE
COMBUSTION MAY PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE. NOT CLASSIFIED AS FLAMMABLE BUT
WILL BURN.
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS:
AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES. EVACUATE THE AREA OF ALL NON-ESSENTIAL
PERSONNEL. SHUT OFF LEAKS, IF POSSIBLE WITHOUT PERSONAL RISK.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SPECIFIED FOR NORMAL OPERATIONS (SEE SECTION 8).
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION:
PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF SOIL AND WATER. PREVENT FROM SPREADING OR ENTERING
INTO DRAINS OR WATERCOURSES BY USING SAND, EARTH, OR OTHER APPROPRIATE
BARRIERS.
CLEAN UP METHODS - SMALL SPILLAGE:
ABSORB OR CONTAIN LIQUID WITH SAND, EARTH, OR SPILL CONTROL MATERIAL.
SHOVEL UP AND PLACE IN A LABELLED, SEALABLE CONTAINER FOR SUBSEQUENT SAFE
DISPOSAL.
CLEAN UP METHODS - LARGE SPILLAGE:
TRANSFER TO A SALVAGE TANK FOR RECOVERY OR SAFE DISPOSAL. DO NOT FLUSH AWAY
RESIDUES WITH WATER. TREAT RESIDUES AS FOR SMALL SPILLAGES.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
HANDLING:
AVOID BREATHING VAPORS AND/OR MISTS. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES AND
CLOTHING. USE ONLY IN WELL VENTILATED AREAS.
STORAGE:
KEEP CONTAINER TIGHTLY CLOSED IN A COOL, WELL-VENTILATED PLACE. KEEP AWAY
FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. FOR CONTAINERS, OR CONTAINER LININGS USE MILD
STEEL, STAINLESS STEEL.
| 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE STANDARDS: NONE ESTABLISHED.
ENGINEERING CONTROL MEASURES: USE ONLY IN WELL-VENTILATED AREAS.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
IF ENGINEERING CONTROLS DO NOT MAINTAIN AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS TO A LEVEL,
WHICH IS ADEQUATE TO PROTECT WORKER HEALTH, SELECT RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT SUITABLE FOR THE SPECIFIC CONDITIONS OF USE AND MEETING RELEVANT
LEGISLATION. CHECK WITH RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT SUPPLIERS. WHERE
AIR-FILTERING RESPIRATORS ARE SUITABLE, SELECT AN APPROPRIATE COMBINATION
OF MASK AND FILTER SUITABLE FOR ORGANIC GASES AND VAPOURS (BOILING POINT
>65 DEG. C (149 DEG. F) MEETING EN141. WHERE AIR-FILTERING RESPIRATORS ARE
UNSUITABLE (E.G. AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS ARE HIGH, RISK OF OXYGEN
DEFICIENCY, CONFINED SPACE) USE APPROPRIATE POSITIVE PRESSURE BREATHING
APPARATUS.
HAND PROTECTION:
WHERE HAND CONTACT WITH THE PRODUCT MAY OCCUR THE USE OF GLOVES APPROVED
TO RELEVANT STANDARDS (E.G. EUROPE: EN374, US: F739, AS/NZS:2161) MADE
FROM THE FOLLOWING MATERIALS MAY PROVIDE SUITABLE CHEMICAL PROTECTION:
PVC, NEOPRENE AND NITRILE RUBBER.
EYE PROTECTION: CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES (CHEMICAL MONOGOGGLES).
BODY PROTECTION:
USE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, WHICH IS CHEMICALLY RESISTANT TO THIS MATERIAL.
SAFETY SHOES OR BOOTS SHOULD BE CHEMICAL RESISTANT.
