Section 4 FIRST AID MEASURES

If in Eyes : Immediately flush with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes. If redness, itching or a burning
sensation develops, have eyes examined and
treated by medical personnel. After initial
flushing, remove any contact lenses and
continue flushing for at least 15 minutes.
If on Skin : Wash material off the skin with plenty of soap
and water. If redness, itching or a burning
sensation develops, get medical attention.
If swallowed : Provided the patient is conscious, wash out
mouth with water. Vomiting should only be
induced under the direction of a physician or a
poison control center. If spontaneous vomiting
occurs, have victim lean forward with head
down to avoid breathing in of vomitus, rinse
mouth and administer water.
If Inhaled : Remove victim to fresh air. Apply artificial
respiration if breathing has ceased or shows
signs of failing. Obtain medical attention.
Medical advice : Inducing vomiting to remove this preparation
from the stomach can increase the risk of
chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema due
to aspiration of stomach contents.
Section 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Auto ignition temperature : No data
Flash point : 89 ° C
Extinguishing media : Water fog, alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical
or halogenated agents. Water spray should be used to
cool containers.
Protective equipment : Self−contained breathing apparatus with full face piece
and protective clothing.
Usual fire and explosion : Combustible liquid by OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200. If
hazards heated above the flash point, heavy vapors can flow
along surfaces to distant ignition sources and flash
back. Possible toxic smoke, vapors, fallout and

Tel. no.: +91 422 2541312 / 2547312 Fax no. : +91 422 2549706
and runoff water can result from fires depending on

extent of combustion and presence of other
combustible materials. Contaminated buildings,
areas, and equipment must be properly
decontaminated before reuse.
Special precaution : Follow procedures specified in the National Fire
Protection Association codes and standards for
handling combustible liquids. Prevent skin and
eye contact. Avoid breathing vapors or aerosols.
Section 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS:
Recommended steps to be taken when concentrate material is released or spilled:
Make sure all personnel involved in the spill cleanup follow good industrial hygiene
practices. Use adequate ventilation and wear a properly fitted half face or full face
NIOSH/MSHA respirator approved for pesticides. Wear proper protective clothing,
gloves made of materials such as rubber or neoprene, and chemical protective eye
protection (refer to section 8).
Recommended steps to be taken when diluted concentrate material is

released or spilled:
Keep unprotected persons and animals out of the spill area. Make sure the area is
adequately ventilated for large spills. Wear proper protective clothing, water−proof
gloves and eye protection (refer to section 8). Make sure all personnel involved in the
spill cleanup follow good industrial hygiene practices. A small spill can be handled
routinely. Ensure suitable personal protection (including respiratory protection) during
removal of spillages. Wear suitable protective clothing and eye protection to prevent
skin and eye contact.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
Washings must be prevented from entering surface water drains.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
PROCEDURES FOR CLEANING UP:
1. Spread a suitable absorbent such as clay on the spill, and shovel into an open drum.
2. Generously cover the contaminated areas with common, household detergent (e.g.
TIDE, registered trademark of Proctor & Gamble Co.). Using a stiff brush and small

Tel. no.: +91 422 2541312 / 2547312 Fax no. : +91 422 2549706
amount of water, work the detergent into the remaining spilled material forming
slurry. Brush the slurry into cracks and crevices and allow to stand for 2−3 minutes.
Be careful to completely avoid skin or eye contact. Do not splatter on oneself or
bystanders.
3. Spread absorbent on the slurry liquid and shovel mixture into the open drum.
4. Repeat #2 and 3 if necessary.
5. Rinse with a small amount of water and use absorbent to collect the wash solution
shovel into the drum.
6. Seal drum and dispose of contaminated material in a facility permitted for hazardous
waste. Large spills should be handled according to a spill plan.
Section 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
SAFE HANDLING ADVICE:

Do not get on skin or clothing. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid breathing vapors or
spray mist. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating,
drinking, or using tobacco. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
REQUIREMENTS FOR STORAGE ROOMS:

Keep in original containers, tightly closed, out of reach of children. Keep away from
food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Containers should be stored in a cool, dry,

should be treated at the rate of 7.5 liters of ready solution per square meter of the
vertical surface of the substructure for each side.
Post Construction Treatment:
In this case soil treatment along external perimeter of a building is recommended and
should be done as given below:
1. Soil along the external walls of the building foundation should be removed at 15
cm interval and up to depths of 30 cm exposing the foundation wall surface.
Ready solution be poured along the wall at the 7.5 liters per square meter of
vertical surface.
