COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS     Additional Information The Full Text for all Hazard Statements are Displayed in Section 16. All Concentration values are expressed in a weight/weight % value. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES   General - In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice. In case of   unconsciousness give nothing by mouth, place in recovery position and seek medical   advice. Inhalation - Remove casualty to fresh air and keep warm and at rest. In case of irregular breathing   or respiratory arrest provide artificial respiration. Skin Contact - Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. After contact with skin, wash immediately   with plenty of water and soap. Do not use solvents or thinners. Eye Contact - Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present   and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical advice immediately. Ingestion - If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Seek medical   advice immediately. Keep victim calm. Do NOT induce vomiting. Common Symptoms and effects both acute and delayed General - In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice. Inhalation - Headache, dizziness, fatigue, amyosthenia, drowsiness, in serious cases:   unconsciousness. Ingestion - Uknown. Skin Contact - Some of the effects listed above under inhalation may be present. Eye Contact - Uknown.  5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES   Fire Hazards - Dense black smoke occurs during fire. Inhaling hazardous decomposing   products can cause serious health damage. Vapours are heavier than air.   Vapours form explosive mixtures with air. Extinguishing Media - Alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, Powder, spray mist, (water) do not use   water in a jet. Combustion Products - During fire, oxides of Carbon and Nitrogen 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 - Provide a conveniently located respiratory protective device. Cool closed   containers that are near the source of the fire. Do not allow water used to   extinguish fire to enter drains, ground or waterways. Treat runoff as hazardous. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES   Personal - Keep away from sources of ignition. Ventilate affected area. Do not breathe   vapours. Environmental - Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. If the product contaminates   lakes, rivers or sewages, inform competent authorities in accordance with local   regulations. Methods of Clean Up - Isolate leaked material using non-flammable absorption agent (e.g. sand, earth,   vermiculit, diatomaceous earth) and collect it for disposal in appropriate   containers in accordance with the local regulations (see section 13). Clean   using cleansing agents. Do not use solvents   7. HANDLING AND STORAGE   Handling Avoid formation of flammable and explosive vapour concentrations in the air and exceeding the exposure limit values. Only use the material in places where open light, fire and other flammable sources can be kept away. Electrical equipment must be protected meeting the accepted standard. Product may become electrostatically charged. Provide earthing of containers, equipment, pumps and ventilation facilities. Anti-static clothing including shoes are recommended. Floors must be electrically conductive. Keep away from heat sources, sparks and open flames. Use only spark proof tools. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Do not inhale dusts, particulates and spray mist when using this preparation. Avoid respiration of swarf. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Personal protection equipment: refer to section 8. Do not empty containers with pressure - no pressure vessel! Always keep in containers that correspond to the material of the original container. Follow the legal protection and safety regulations. Storage Storage in accordance with the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health (BetrSiVO). Keep container tightly closed. Do not empty containers with pressure - no pressure vessel! Smoking is forbidden. Access only for authorised persons. Store carefully closed containers upright to prevent any leaks. Soils have to conform to the "Guidelines for avoidance of ignition hazards due to electrostatic charges (TRBS 2153)". Keep away from strongly acidic and alkaline materials as well as oxidizers. Take care of instructions on label. Store in a well-ventilated and dry room at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C. Protect from heat and direct sunlight. Keep container tightly closed. Remove all sources of ignition. Smoking is forbidden. Access only for authorised persons. Store carefully closed containers upright to prevent any leaks. 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 Nitryl Rubber at least 0.4mm thick, goggles, protective overalls and chemically resistant safety shoes should also be worn. Gloves chouls not be worn for more than 8 hours. Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact. Note, these DNEL and PNECs are for the hazardous components and not the product as a whole. Occupational Exposure Limits DNEL PNEC Hygiene Measures   Wash hands at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. Wash promptly if skin becomes wet. Remove any clothing that becomes wet or contaminated. Contaminated clothing should be placed in a closed container until disposal or decontamination. Warn cleaning personnel of contaminants hazardous properties. 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY   Conditions to Avoid - None Materials to Avoid - Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids. Hazardous decomp products - Does not decompose under normal conditions. When burned, produces   oxides of carbon and nitrogen. 11.  TOXILOGICAL INFORMATION    Skin Contact - Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal   of natural fat from the skin resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis   and/or absorption through skin.
