4. FIRST AID MEASURES
General
- If medical attention is required present a copy of this datasheet to the physician.
Remove all contaminated clothing. The person must rest and be kept under medical
observation even if there are no immediate signs of symptoms. Define a first aid plan
of action prior to commencing work with this product. Consult the occupational
physician.

- Remove affected person to fresh air and keep at rest. If breathing is irregular or has
stopped, administer artificial respiration.
Seek medical attention
Skin Contact
- Remove contaminated clothing, Wash skin thouroughly with soap and water or use a
propreitary skin cleanser. Do not use solvents or thinners.
Seek medical attention

Seek medical attention immediately
Common Symptoms and effects both acute and delayed
Inhalation
- May cause drowsiness and dizziness.
Ingestion
- Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Entry into the lungs following ingestion or vomiting
may cause chemical pneumonitis.
Skin Contact
- Prolonged contact may cause irritation, redness, dry skin and dermatitis.
Eye Contact
- Symptoms may include irritation or pain, lacrimation and redness of the eye tissue.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire Hazards
- In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase may burst containers. The vapour/gas
is heavier than air and will spread along the ground.
Extinguishing Media
- Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Powder or Water fog. Do not use water in a jet.
Combustion Products
- During fire, oxides of Carbon are formed.
Protective Equipment
- Self contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn
in case of fire.
Environmental
- Keep run off water out of sewers and water sources. Dike for water control.
Procedures
- Stay upwind, evacuate personnel, use suitable extinguishers. Move container
from fire area if it can be done without risk. Withdraw immediately in case of
rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks occur due
to fire. Use water spray to control vapours. If risk of water pollution occurs, notify
appropriate authorities.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal
- Use protective gloves, goggles, respirator and suitable protective clothing. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Restrict access to authorised personnel. Stay upwind.
Environmental
- Do not allow to enter into surface water or sewer system.
Methods of Clean Up
- Ventilate well, stop flow of gas or liquid if possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry
sand or earth and place in containers. Dispose of in accordance with local
legislation.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
- Avoid creating dusty conditions and prevent wind dispersal. Good industrial practice in
housekeeping and personal hygiene should be followed. When using do not eat, drink or
smoke. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. (See 8). Equipment or utensils used
for dispensing the chemical must be suitable for the purpose. Wash out after use. Wash

use. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid ingestion/inhalation. Emergency eye
wash stations and showers should be made available.
Storage
- Store in a dry ventilated area. Reseal open packages to prevent spillage. Keep containers
tightly closed. Keep away from oxidising substances.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Adequate ventilation should be provided such that Derived No Effect Limits are not exceeded. Local Exhaust
Ventilation is preferable to personal protection. Gloves made out of Butyl Rubber at least 0.5mm thick, goggles,
protective overalls, a chemical respirator and chemically resistant safety shoes should also be worn.
Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin
contact.
