4. FIRST AID MEASURES

General - If medical attention is required present a copy of this datasheet to the physician.
Remove all contaminated clothing. The person must rest and be kept under medical
observation even if there are no immediate signs of symptoms. Define a first aid plan of action
prior to commencing work with this product. Consult the occupational physician.
Inhalation - Remove affected person to fresh air and keep at rest. If breathing is irregular or has stopped,
administer artificial respiration.
Seek medical attention

Skin Contact - Flood skin with large quantites of water whilst removing contaminated clothing, The product
may remain trapped under clothing, footwear or a wrist watch.
Seek medical attention

Eye Contact - Immediately wash eyes with plenty of water while lifting the eye lids. Continue to rinse for at
least 15 minutes.
Seek medical attention

Ingestion - Do NOT induce vomiting. If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show the
container or label. Keep person warm and at rest.
Seek medical attention immediately

Common symptoms and effects both acute and delayed

Inhalation - May cause drowsiness and dizziness or irritation to throat and repiratory tract.

Ingestion - Symptoms may include nausea and vomiting.

Skin Contact - Prolonged contact may cause irritation, redness, dry skin and dermatitis.

Eye Contact - Symptoms may include irritation or pain, lacrimation and redness of the eye tissue.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Fire Hazards - In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase may burst containers. The vapour/gas is heavier
than air and will spread along the ground.

Extinguishing Media - Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, powder or water fog. Do not use water in a jet.

Combustion Products - During fire, oxides of Carbon 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 - Stay upwind, evacuate personnel, use suitable extinguishers. Move container from fire area if
it can be done without risk. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety
device or any discoloration of tanks occur due to fire. Use water spray to control vapours. If risk

stations and showers should be made available.

Storage - Store in a dry ventilated area. Reseal open packages to prevent spillage. Keep containers
tightly closed. Keep away from oxidising substances.

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 butyl rubber at least 0.5mm thick, goggles, protective overalls, a chemical
respirator and chemically resistant safety shoes should also be worn. Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Wear
appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact.
