| SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
GENERAL ADVICE:
MOVE OUT OF DANGEROUS AREA.
SHOW THIS SAFETY DATA SHEET TO THE DOCTOR IN ATTENDANCE.
DO NOT LEAVE THE VICTIM UNATTENDED.
IF INHALED:
IF UNCONSCIOUS, PLACE IN RECOVERY POSITION AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.
IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, CALL A PHYSICIAN.
IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT:
FIRST AID IS NOT NORMALLY REQUIRED. HOWEVER, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT EXPOSED
AREAS BE CLEANED BY WASHING WITH SOAP AND WATER.
IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT:
FLUSH EYES WITH WATER AS A PRECAUTION.
REMOVE CONTACT LENSES.
PROTECT UNHARMED EYE.
IF EYE IRRITATION PERSISTS, CONSULT A SPECIALIST.
IF SWALLOWED:
OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION.
RINSE MOUTH WITH WATER.
DO NOT GIVE MILK OR ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.
NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, CALL A PHYSICIAN.
MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED:
EFFECTS OF ACUTE ETHYLENE GLYCOL POISONING APPEAR IN THREE FAIRLY DISTINCT
STAGES. THE INITIAL STAGE OCCURS SHORTLY AFTER EXPOSURE, LASTS 6-12 HOURS,
AND IS CHARACTERIZED BY CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS (TRANSIENT
EXHILARATION, NAUSEA, VOMITING, AND IN SEVERE CASES, COMA, CONVULSIONS, AND
POSSIBLE DEATH). THE SECOND STAGE LASTS FROM 12-36 HOURS AFTER EXPOSURE
AND IS INITIATED BY THE ONSET OF COMA. THIS PHASE IS CHARACTERIZED BY
TACHYPNIA, TACHYCARDIA, MILD HYPOTENSION, CYANOSIS, AND IN SEVERE CASES,
PULMONARY EDEMA, BRONCHOPNEUMONIA, CARDIAC ENLARGEMENT, AND CONGESTIVE
FAILURE. THE FINAL STAGE OCCURS 24-72 POST-EXPOSURE AND IS CHARACTERIZED
BY RENAL FAILURE, RANGING FROM A MILD INCREASE IN BLOOD UREA NITROGEN AND
CREATININE FOLLOWED BY RECOVERY, TO COMPLETE ANURIA WITH ACUTE TUBULAR
NECROSIS THAT CAN LEAD TO DEATH. OXALURIA IS FOUND IN MOST CASES. THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY FINDING IN ETHYLENE GLYCOL INTOXICATION IS SEVERE
METABOLIC ACIDOSIS.
NO SYMPTOMS KNOWN OR EXPECTED.
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO ORGANS THROUGH PROLONGED OR REPEATED EXPOSURE IF
SWALLOWED.
MAY DAMAGE FERTILITY OR THE UNBORN CHILD.
HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS ETHYLENE GLYCOL. ETHANOL DECREASES THE METABOLISM OF
ETHYLENE GLYCOL TO TOXIC METABOLITES. ETHANOL SHOULD BE ADMINISTERED AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE IN CASES OF SEVERE POISONING SINCE THE ELIMINATION
HALF-LIFE OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL IS 3 HOURS. IF MEDICAL CARE WILL BE DELAYED
SEVERAL HOURS, GIVE THE PATIENT THREE TO FOUR 1-OUNCE ORAL "SHOTS" OF
86-PROOF OR HIGHER WHISKEY BEFORE OR DURING TRANSPORT TO THE HOSPITAL.
FOMEPIZOLE (4-METHYLPYRAZOLE) IS AN EFFECTIVE ANTAGONIST OF ALCOHOL
DEHYDROGENASE, AND AS SUCH, MAY BE USED AS AN ANTIDOTE IN THE TREATMENT
OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL POISONING. HEMODIALYSIS EFFECTIVELY REMOVES ETHYLENE
GLYCOL AND ITS METABOLITES FROM THE BODY.
NO HAZARDS WHICH REQUIRE SPECIAL FIRST AID MEASURES.
| SECTION 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES | |
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
USE EXTINGUISHING MEASURES THAT ARE APPROPRIATE TO LOCAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND
THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT.

SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT COMBUSTION. VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY
TRAVEL ALONG THE GROUND AND BE IGNITED BY HEAT, PILOT LIGHTS, OTHER FLAMES
AND IGNITION SOURCES AT LOCATIONS NEAR THE POINT OF RELEASE.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: NO HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS ARE KNOWN
SPECIFIC EXTINGUISHING METHODS:
PRODUCT IS COMPATIBLE WITH STANDARD FIRE-FIGHTING AGENTS.
FURTHER INFORMATION:
FIRE RESIDUES AND CONTAMINATED FIRE EXTINGUISHING WATER MUST BE DISPOSED
OF IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL REGULATIONS.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIREFIGHTERS:
IN THE EVENT OF FIRE, WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS.
| SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
USE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
PERSONS NOT WEARING PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM AREA OF
SPILL UNTIL CLEAN-UP HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
PREVENT PRODUCT FROM ENTERING DRAINS.
PREVENT FURTHER LEAKAGE OR SPILLAGE IF SAFE TO DO SO.
IF THE PRODUCT CONTAMINATES RIVERS AND LAKES OR DRAINS INFORM RESPECTIVE
AUTHORITIES.
METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR CONTAINMENT AND CLEANING UP:
SOAK UP WITH INERT ABSORBENT MATERIAL (E.G. SAND, SILICA GEL, ACID BINDER,
UNIVERSAL BINDER, SAWDUST).
KEEP IN SUITABLE, CLOSED CONTAINERS FOR DISPOSAL.
OTHER INFORMATION:
COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL REGULATIONS.
| SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
ADVICE ON SAFE HANDLING:
DO NOT BREATHE VAPOURS/DUST.
DO NOT SMOKE.
CONTAINER HAZARDOUS WHEN EMPTY.
AVOID EXPOSURE - OBTAIN SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.

ENGINEERING MEASURES:
PROVIDE SUFFICIENT MECHANICAL (GENERAL AND/OR LOCAL EXHAUST) VENTILATION
TO MAINTAIN EXPOSURE BELOW EXPOSURE GUIDELINES (IF APPLICABLE) OR BELOW
LEVELS THAT CAUSE KNOWN, SUSPECTED OR APPARENT ADVERSE EFFECTS.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
IN THE CASE OF VAPOUR FORMATION USE A RESPIRATOR WITH AN APPROVED FILTER.
A NIOSH-APPROVED AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR WITH AN APPROPRIATE CARTRIDGE
AND/OR FILTER MAY BE PERMISSIBLE UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE AIRBORNE
CONCENTRATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO EXCEED EXPOSURE LIMITS (IF APPLICABLE) OR
IF OVEREXPOSURE HAS OTHERWISE BEEN DETERMINED. PROTECTION PROVIDED BY
AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATORS IS LIMITED. USE A POSITIVE PRESSURE, AIR-SUPPLIED
RESPIRATOR IF THERE IS ANY POTENTIAL FOR UNCONTROLLED RELEASE, EXPOSURE
LEVELS ARE NOT KNOWN OR ANY OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE AN AIR-PURIFYING
RESPIRATOR MAY NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE PROTECTION.
NO PERSONAL RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT NORMALLY REQUIRED.
HAND PROTECTION:

GOGGLES IF MATERIAL COULD BE MISTED OR SPLASHED INTO EYES.
SKIN AND BODY PROTECTION:
WEAR AS APPROPRIATE:
IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING
SAFETY SHOES
CHOOSE BODY PROTECTION ACCORDING TO THE AMOUNT AND CONCENTRATION OF THE
DANGEROUS SUBSTANCE AT THE WORK PLACE.
WEAR RESISTANT GLOVES (CONSULT YOUR SAFETY EQUIPMENT SUPPLIER).
HYGIENE MEASURES:
