First-aid measures

Eye Contact:  Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses if present. Call a physician immediately.  Seek medical attention.

Skin Contact:  Wash immediately with plenty of water and soap.

Ingestion:  If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Only induce vomiting at the instruction of a physician. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Inhalation:  Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Obtain medical advice if there are persistent symptoms.

Fire-fighting measures

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA

Suitable Extinguishing Media:  Use water spray or fog, carbon dioxide or dry chemical.

SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE

Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire.

ADVICE FOR FIREFIGHTERS

Protective Equipment:  Firefighters, and others exposed, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:  Where exposure level is not known, wear approved, positive pressure, self-contained respirator. Where exposure level is known, wear approved respirator suitable for level of exposure. In addition to the protective clothing/equipment (Exposure Controls/Personal Protection), wear impermeable boots.

Environmental Precautions: None known

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Cover spills with some inert absorbent material; sweep up and place in a waste disposal container. Flush spill area with water.

Handling and storage

Precautionary Measures: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Use with adequate ventilation. Keep container closed. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Special Handling Statements: Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if necessary).

During processing and handling of the product, comply with the indicative occupational exposure limit values.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated place and keep container tightly closed. Observe the general rules of industrial fire protection. Sensitive to frost.

Exposure controls / personal protection

CONTROL PARAMETERS:

No values have been established.

Engineering Measures:

Engineering controls are not usually necessary if good hygiene practices are followed.

Respiratory Protection:

For operations where inhalation exposure can occur, use an approved respirator recommended by an industrial hygienist after an evaluation of the operation. Where inhalation exposure can not occur, no respiratory protection is required.

Eye protection:

Wear eye/face protection such as chemical splash proof goggles or face shield.

Skin Protection:

Avoid skin contact.  Wear impermeable gloves.

Hand protection:

Nitrile or fluorinated rubber gloves. Consider the porosity and elasticity data of the glove manufacturer and the specific conditons in the work place. Replace gloves immediately when torn or any change in appearance (dimension, colour, flexibility etc) is noticed.

Additional Advice:

Before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash face and hands thoroughly with soap and water.
