4. FIRST AID MEASURES:
If in eyes:

1
Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 – 20 minutes. Remove
contact lenses, if present, after 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call a poison
control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If on skin:

Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 –
20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If swallowed:
Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person
sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by
a poison control center or doctor. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person.
If inhaled:
Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call an ambulance, then give
artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth is possible. Call a poison control
center or doctor for further treatment advice.
Note to physician:
There is no special antidote available. Treat symptomatically. Probable mucosal
damage may contraindicate gastric lavage. Contact with eyes may require specialized

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES:

Fire and Explosion
Flash point: Not applicable
Flammability: Not Flammable
Unusual Fire, Explosion and Reactivity Hazards
During a fire, irritating and possibly toxic gases may be generated by thermal
decomposition or combustion.
In Case of Fire
Use dry chemical, foam or CO2 extinguishing media. Wear full protective clothing
and self-contained breathing apparatus. Evacuate nonessential personnel from the area
to prevent human exposure to fire, smoke, fumes or products of combustion. Prevent
use of contaminated buildings, area, and equipment until decontaminated. Water
runoff can cause environmental damage. If water is used to fight fire, dike and collect
runoff.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES:
In case of spill or leak:
Control the spill at its source. Contain the spill to prevent from spreading or
contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems or any body of
2
water. Clean up spills immediately. Sweep up material and place in a compatible
disposal container. Scrub area with hard water detergent. Pick up wash liquid with
additional absorbent and place into compatible disposal container. Once all material is
cleaned up and placed in a disposal container, seal container and arrange for
disposition
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE:
Store the material in a well-ventilated, secure area out of reach of children and
domestic animals. Do not store food, beverages or tobacco products in the storage
area. Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco use, and cosmetic application in areas where
there is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water
after handling
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION:
Ingestion:
Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco usage and cosmetic application in areas where there
is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after
handling.
Eye Contact:
Where eye contact is likely, use chemical splash goggles. Facilities storing or utilizing
this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower.
Skin Contact:
Where contact is likely, wear chemical-resistant (such as nitrile or butyl) gloves,
coveralls, socks and chemical-resistant footwear. For overhead exposure, wear
chemical-resistant headgear.
Inhalation:
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
keep airborne levels below exposure limits. A NIOSH-certified combination
airpurifying respirator with an N, P or R 95 or HE class filter and an organic vapor
cartridge may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne
concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by
airpurifying respirators is limited. Use a pressure demand atmosphere-supplying
respirator if there is any potential for uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not
known, or under any other circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not
provide adequate protection.
