SECTION 4: First aid measures

4.1 Description of first aid measures
Eye contact
Inhalation
Skin contact
Ingestion
Protection of first-aiders
: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention.
Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes.
: Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If not breathing,
if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or
oxygen by trained personnel. It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to
give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Get medical attention. If unconscious, place in
recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway.
: Get medical attention immediately. Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly
with water before removing it, or wear gloves. Continue to rinse for at least 15
minutes. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
: Get medical attention immediately. Wash out mouth with water. If material has
been swallowed and the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water
to drink. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not
enter the lungs. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention
immediately. Maintain an open airway.
: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. If it
is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate
mask or self-contained breathing apparatus. It may be dangerous to the person
providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable
Not suitable
: Use dry chemical, CO, water spray (fog) or foam.

: Do not use water jet.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Special exposure hazards
Hazardous thermal
decomposition products
: Highly flammable liquid and vapour. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will
occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a subsequent explosion. Runoff
to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.
Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk.
Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
: Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
5.3 Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective
equipment for fire-fighters
Additional information
: Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained

breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure
mode.
: Not available.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
6.2 Environmental
precautions
: If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any
information in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials.
: Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Small spill
Large spill
6.4 Reference to other

sections
: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dilute with water and mop
up if water-soluble or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate
waste disposal container. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.
Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach the release
from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined
areas. Wash spillages into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows.
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand,
earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal
according to local regulations. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof
equipment. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Contaminated
absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the spilt product. Note: see
Section 1 for emergency contact information and Section 13 for waste disposal.
: Note: see section 8 for personal protective equipment and section 13 for waste
disposal.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage

7.1 Precautions for safe
handling
: Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is
handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before
eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective
equipment before entering eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional
information on hygiene measures.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
4/37
PFR23 METHANOL
SECTION 7: Handling and storage

Storage
: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved

area. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and wellventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and
drink. Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep
container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been
opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not
store in unlabelled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination.
: Use original container.

Exposure limit values

EH40/2005 WELs (United Kingdom (UK), 12/2011). Absorbed
through skin.
STEL: 333 mg/m 15 minutes.
STEL: 250 ppm 15 minutes.
TWA: 266 mg/m 8 hours.
TWA: 200 ppm 8 hours.
: If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal, workplace

atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness
of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory
protective equipment. Reference should be made to European Standard EN 689 for
methods for the assessment of exposure by inhalation to chemical agents and
national guidance documents for methods for the determination of hazardous
substances.
8.2 Exposure controls

Occupational exposure
controls
Hygiene measures
Respiratory protection
Hand protection
Eye protection
Skin protection
: Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne
contaminants below any recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls
also need to keep gas, vapour or dust concentrations below any lower explosive
limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
: Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products,
before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and
safety showers are close to the workstation location.
: Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must
be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and
the safe working limits of the selected respirator.
: Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should
be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates
this is necessary.
: Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists,
gases or dusts.
: 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.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection

Environmental exposure
controls
: Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure

they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process
equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
