SECTION 4: First Aid Measures
Description of First Aid Measures
General Notes: Show this Safety Data Sheet to the doctor in attendance.
After Inhalation: If inhaled, remove person to fresh air and place in a position comfortable for breathing. If respiratory symptoms develop or persist, seek medical advice/attention.
After Skin Contact: Wash affected area with plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. If skin irritation develops or persists, seek medical advice/attention.
After Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with plenty of water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do so. Protect unexposed eye. If symptoms develop or persist, seek medical advice/attention.
After Swallowing: If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to do so by a physician or poison control center. Rinse mouth with water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, place on the left side with head down to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs. If symptoms develop or persist, seek medical advice/attention.
Most Important Symptoms and Effects, Both Acute and Delayed
Acute Symptoms and Effects: Skin contact may result in redness, pain, burning and inflammation. Eye contact may result in irritation, redness, pain, inflammation, itching, burning and tearing. Dermal exposure may cause an allergic skin reaction. Symptoms may include irritation, redness, pain, rash, inflammation, itching, burning and dermatitis. Inhalation may have adverse effects on the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include cough, breathing difficulties, sore throat and inflammation of the mucous membrane lining the respiratory tract.
Delayed Symptoms and Effects: Effects are dependent on exposure (dose, concentration, contact time).
Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment
Specific Treatment: If respiratory symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Notes for the Doctor: Treat symptomatically.
SECTION 5: Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing Media
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water mist/fog, carbon dioxide, dry chemical or alcohol resistant foam.

Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Not determined or not applicable.
Special precautions: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, hair and clothing. Do not breathe fumes/gas/mists/aerosols/vapors/dusts. Move containers from fire area if safe to do so. Use water spray/fog for cooling fire exposed containers. Avoid unnecessary run-off of extinguishing media which may cause pollution.
SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures
Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment, and Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Ventilate area. Extinguish any sources of ignition. Wear recommended personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid breathing mist, vapor, dust, fume and spray. Do not walk through spilled material. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent from reaching drains, sewers and waterways. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up: Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate personal protective clothing. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Contain and collect spillage and place in suitable container for future disposal. Dispose of in accordance with all applicable regulations (see Section 13).
Reference to Other Sections: For personal protective equipment see Section 8. For disposal see Section 13.
SECTION 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions for Safe Handling: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing mist/vapor/spray/dust. Do not eat, drink, smoke, or use personal products when handling chemical substances. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash affected areas thoroughly after handling. Keep away from incompatible materials (See Section 10). Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.
Conditions for Safe Storage, Including Any Incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight. Keep away from food and beverages. Protect from freezing and physical damage. Store away from heat, open flames and other sources of ignition. Keep container tightly sealed. Store away from incompatible materials (See Section 10).

Information on Monitoring Procedures: Not determined or not applicable.
Appropriate Engineering Controls: Emergency eye wash stations and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of use or handling. Provide adequate ventilation to maintain the airborne concentrations of vapor, mists, and/or dusts below the applicable workplace exposure limits, while observing recognized national standards (or equivalent).
Personal Protection Equipment
Eye and Face Protection: Safety glasses or goggles. Use eye protection equipment that has been tested and approved by recognized national standards (or equivalent).
Skin and Body Protection: Chemical resistant, impervious gloves approved by the appropriate standards. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Avoid skin contact with used gloves. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove used gloves and contaminated clothing. Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product. Ensure that all personal protective equipment is approved by recognized national standards (or equivalent).
Respiratory Protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below the applicable workplace exposure limits, or to an acceptable level (if exposure limits have not been established), a respirator approved by recognized national standards (or equivalent) must be worn.
General Hygienic Measures: When handling chemical products, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands after handling, before breaks, and at the end of the workday. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Perform routine housekeeping.
