SECTION 4. First aid measures.

Not specifically necessary. Observance of good industrial hygiene is recommended.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed.
No episodes of damage to health ascribable to the product have been reported.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed.
Information not available.
SECTION 5. Firefighting measures.
5.1. Extinguishing media.
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING EQUIPMENT
Extinguishing substances are: carbon dioxide, foam, chemical powder. For product loss or leakage that has not caught fire, water spray
can be used to disperse flammable vapours and protect those trying to stem the leak.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING EQUIPMENT
Do not use jets of water. Water is not effective for putting out fires but can be used to cool containers exposed to flames to prevent
explosions.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture.
HAZARDS CAUSED BY EXPOSURE IN THE EVENT OF FIRE
Excess pressure may form in containers exposed to fire at a risk of explosion. Do not breathe combustion products.
5.3. Advice for firefighters.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Use jets of water to cool the containers to prevent product decomposition and the development of substances potentially hazardous for
health. Always wear full fire prevention gear. Collect extinguishing water to prevent it from draining into the sewer system. Dispose of
contaminated water used for extinction and the remains of the fire according to applicable regulations.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIRE-FIGHTERS
Normal fire fighting clothing i.e. fire kit (BS EN 469), gloves (BS EN 659) and boots (HO specification A29 and A30) in combination with
self-contained open circuit positive pressure compressed air breathing apparatus (BS EN 137).
SECTION 6. Accidental release measures.
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures.
Use breathing equipment if fumes or powders are released into the air. These indications apply for both processing staff and those
involved in emergency procedures.
6.2. Environmental precautions.
The product must not penetrate into the sewer system or come into contact with surface water or ground water.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up.
Confine using earth or inert material. Collect as much material as possible and eliminate the rest using jets of water. Contaminated
material should be disposed of in compliance with the provisions set forth in point 13.
6.4. Reference to other sections.
Any information on personal protection and disposal is given in sections 8 and 13.

SECTION 7. Handling and storage.
7.1. Precautions for safe handling.
Before handling the product, consult all the other sections of this material safety data sheet. Avoid leakage of the product into the
environment. Do not eat, drink or smoke during use.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities.
Keep the product in clearly labelled containers. Keep containers away from any incompatible materials, see section 10 for details.
7.3. Specific end use(s).
Information not available.
SECTION 8. Exposure controls/personal protection.
8.1. Control parameters.
Information not available.
8.2. Exposure controls.
As the use of adequate technical equipment must always take priority over personal protection equipment, make sure that the workplace
is well aired through effective local aspiration. Personal protection equipment must comply with the rules in force indicated below.
HAND PROTECTION
Protect hands with category I (ref. Directive 89/686/EEC and standard EN 374) work gloves, such as those in latex, PVC or equivalent.
The following should be considered when choosing work glove material: degradation, breakage times and permeation. Work glove
resistance to preparations should be checked before use, as it can be unpredictable. Gloves’ limit depends on the duration of exposure.
EYE PROTECTION
Use of protective airtight goggles (ref. standard EN 166) recommended.
SKIN PROTECTION
Wear category I professional long-sleeved overalls and safety footwear (ref. Directive 89/686/CEE and standard EN 344). Wash body
with soap and water after removing overalls.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
If the threshold value (if available) for one or more of the substances present in the preparation for daily exposure in the workplace or to
a fraction established by the company’s prevention and protection service is exceeded, wear a mask with an A or universal filter, the
class (1, 2 or 3) of which must be chosen according to the limit concentration of use (ref. standard EN 141).
The use of respiratory tract protection equipment, such as masks like that indicated above, is necessary to reduce worker exposure in
the absence of technical measures. The protection provided by masks is in any case limited.
If the substance in question is odourless or its olfactory threshold is higher than the relative exposure limit and in the event of an
emergency, or when exposure levels are unknown or the concentration of oxygen in the workplace is less than 17% volume, wear
self-contained, open-circuit compressed air breathing apparatus (ref. standard EN 137) or fresh air hose breathing apparatus for use with
full face mask, half mask or mouthpiece (ref. standard EN 138).
