4 First-aid measures

First aid
Inhalation : remove the exposed person from contaminated area; keep warm and in fresh air.
: if victim has trouble breathing, transport to medical care and give supplemental oxygen.
: in case of loss of consciousness, give artificial respiration.
- Skin contact : take off immediately all contaminated clothing.
: wash thoroughly with soapy water.
- Eye contact : wash with plenty of water,for at least 15 minutes, keeping the lids well open.
: seek medical advice.
- Ingestion : keep the injured person warm and at rest.
: rinse the mouth with clean water; give plenty of water, seek medical advice.
: do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.
: do not induce vomiting.
: if aspiration is suspected (during spontaneous vomiting,for instance),seek medical advice
urgently.

5 Fire - fighting measures

Extinguishing media
- Suitable
- Not suitable
Fire/explosion hazards
Fire-fighting procedures
: carbon dioxide, dry chemicals, foam, water spray ( or fog).
: water jets.
: as a water solution, the fire is highly improbable.
: fire fighters and others who may be exposed to the products of combustion, should be
equipped with NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full
protective clothing.
: when exposed to flames or high temperatures encountered during fire conditions, sealed
containers may rupture because of the build up of internal pressure: cool containers with water
and remove.
: the contaminated water used for extinguishing must be disposed of in accordance with local
legislation.

6 Accidental release measures

After spillage / leakage

- on soil : isolate the dangerous area, wear protective clothing. Remove all sources of ignition and
contain the spill with inert materials.
: then collect in suitable containers and dispose of or burn at approved site.
: avoid dispersion of large quantities of product in sewers or waterways.
: if spilled product is going into water courses or drain and soil or vegetation are contaminated,
advise legal authority and take measures to minimize effects on the aquatic environment.
- on water : the product is water soluble.

7 Handling and storage

Handling : take precautionary measures against static discharge during blending and transfer operations.
: avoid contact with skin and eyes.
: handle the product near emergency washing and eye wash bottles.
: protect eyes from vapour/spray.
Storage : store in well closed boxes.
: store in a fresh and well-ventilated place, away from incompatible substances.
: store away from all sources of ignition (heat sources, sparks and open flames).
Suitable storage materials : stainless steel, natural or butylic rubber, polyethylene, PVC, polyesther, teflon.
Not suitable storage materials : carbon steel, nylon, polyurethanes and poly-methyl methacrylates.
