advice/attention.
P301+P312 IF SWALLOWED: Call the POISON
INFORMATION CENTER on 131126 or a doctor if you feel
unwell.
INGREDIENTS:
Where medical attention is not immediately available or where the patient is more
than 15 minutes from a hospital or unless instructed otherwise:
INDUCE vomiting with fingers down the back of the throat, ONLY IF CONSCIOUS.
Lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain
open airway and prevent aspiration.
NOTE: Wear a protective glove when inducing vomiting by mechanical means.
EYE: Wash out immediately with fresh running water. Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by
keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting
the upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs
seek medical attention. Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be
undertaken by skilled personnel.
SKIN: Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear. Flush skin and hair
with running water (and soap if available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED: If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area. Lay patient
down. Keep warm and rested. Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway,
should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. Apply artificial
respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask
device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
Transport to hospital, or doctor.
FIRST AID FACILITIES: Normal washroom facilities are generally suitable. Ensure an eye wash station and safety
shower is available and ready for use. Keep water and mild soap near work site.
ADVICE TO DOCTOR: Treat symptomatically, for advice, contact the Poisons Information Centre 131 126

FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY: Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids,
chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result.
FIRE-FIGHTING: Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear
full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus. Prevent, by any
means available, spillage from entering drains or water course. Use
water delivered as a fine spray to control fire and cool adjacent area.
FIRE / EXPLOSION HAZARD: Combustible. Slight fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Heating
may cause expansion or decomposition leading to violent rupture of
containers. On combustion, may emit toxic fumes of carbon monoxide
(CO). Combustion products include: carbon dioxide (CO2) other
pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material. May emit
poisonous fumes. May emit corrosive fumes
PROTECTIVE MEASURES: Fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus if risk of
exposure to products of combustion. Water spray may be used to cool
down heat-exposed containers
MINOR SPILLS: Slippery when spilt. Remove all ignition sources. Clean up all spills immediately.
Avoid breathing vapours and contact with skin and eyes. Control personal
contact with the substance, by using protective equipment
MAJOR SPILLS: Slippery when spilt. Moderate hazard. Clear area of personnel and move upwind.
Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear breathing
apparatus plus protective gloves.

EYE AND FACE PROTECTION: Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles. Contact lenses may pose a
special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A
written policy document, describing the wearing of lenses or restrictions on use,
should be created for each workplace or task.
HANDS/FEET/SKIN PROTECTION: Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC. Wear safety footwear or safety
gumboots, e.g. Rubber.The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on
the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer
to manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the
resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has
therefore to be checked prior to the application. The exact break through time for
substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves
and.has to be observed when making a final choice. Personal hygiene is a key
element of effective hand care.
HYGIENE MEASURES: Always wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet. If
contamination occurs, change clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before
reuse. Discard internally contaminated gloves.
Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:2001, ANSI Z88 or national equivalent)
Where the concentration of gas/particulates in the breathing zone, approaches or exceeds the "Exposure Standard" (or ES),
respiratory protection is required.
Degree of protection varies with both face-piece and Class of filter; the nature of protection varies with Type of filter.

Cartridge respirators should never be used for emergency ingress or in areas of unknown vapour concentrations or oxygen
content. The wearer must be warned to leave the contaminated area immediately on detecting any odours through the
respirator. The odour may indicate that the mask is not functioning properly, that the vapour concentration is too high, or that
the mask is not properly fitted. Because of these limitations, only restricted use of cartridge respirators is considered
appropriate.

OTHER INFORMATION: These physical data and other properties do not constitute a
specification.
INHALED: Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by
narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo.
Inhalation of vapours or aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the
course of normal handling, may be damaging to the health of the individual.
INGESTION: Accidental ingestion of the material may be harmful; animal experiments indicate that
ingestion of less than 150 gram may be fatal or may produce serious damage to the health
of the individual.

Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces
inflammation of the skin in a substantial number of individuals following direct contact,
and/or produces significant inflammation when applied to the healthy intact skin of
animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present twenty-four hours or more
after the end of the exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged or
repeated exposure; this may result in a form of contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The
dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which
may progress to blistering (vesiculation), scaling and thickening of the epidermis. At the
microscopic level there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer of the skin
(spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis.
EYE: Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material may cause eye irritation
in a substantial number of individuals and/or may produce significant ocular lesions which
are present twenty-four hours or more after instillation into the eye(s) of experimental
animals.
Repeated or prolonged eye contact may cause inflammation characterised by temporary
redness (similar to windburn) of the conjunctiva (conjunctivitis); temporary impairment of
vision and/or other transient eye damage/ulceration may occur.
CHRONIC: Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce
cumulative health effects involving organs or biochemical systems.
There is some evidence to provide a presumption that human exposure to the material
may result in impaired fertility on the basis of: some evidence in animal studies of
impaired fertility in the absence of toxic effects, or evidence of impaired fertility
occurring at around the same dose levels as other toxic effects but which is not a
secondary non-specific consequence of other toxic effects.
There is some evidence that human exposure to the material may result in developmental
toxicity. This evidence is based on animal studies where effects have been observed in the
absence of marked maternal toxicity, or at around the same dose levels as other toxic
effects but which are not secondary non-specific consequences of the other toxic effects.

ETHLENE GLYCOL: For ethylene glycol: Ethylene glycol is quickly and extensively absorbed through
the gastrointestinal tract. Limited information suggests that it is also absorbed
through the respiratory tract; dermal absorption is apparently slow. Following
absorption, ethylene glycol is distributed throughout the body according to total
body water. In most mammalian species, including humans, ethylene glycol is
initially metabolised by alcohol. [Estimated Lethal Dose (human) 100 ml;
RTECS quoted by Orica] Substance is reproductive effector in rats (birth
defects). Mutagenic to rat cells.

SODIUM HYDROXIDE: The material may produce severe skin irritation after prolonged or repeated
exposure, and may produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form of
dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) thickening of the
epidermis. Histologically there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer
(spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis. Prolonged contact is
unlikely, given the severity of response, but repeated exposures may produce
severe ulceration.
