clothing. Get medical attention if symptoms persist. Wash contaminated clothing before
re-use.
Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Ingestion : Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get
medical attention if symptoms persist.
Notes For Physician : Treat symptomatically.

SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES


Fire hazards/conditions of flammability
: Not considered flammable. Closed containers may rupture if exposed to excess heat or
flame due to a build-up of internal pressure.
Oxidizing properties : None known.
Explosion data: Sensitivity to mechanical impact / static discharge
: Not expected to be sensitive to mechanical impact or static discharge.
Suitable extinguishing media : Use media suitable to the surrounding fire such as water fog or fine spray, alcohol foams,
carbon dioxide and dry chemical.
Special fire-fighting procedures/equipment
: Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment and self-contained breathing
apparatus with full face piece operated in positive pressure mode. Move containers from fire
area if safe to do so. Water spray may be useful in cooling equipment exposed to heat and
flame.
Hazardous combustion products
: Carbon oxides; Nitrogen oxides (NOx); Ammonia; formaldehyde; Other unidentified organic
compounds.

SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES


Personal precautions : All persons dealing with the clean-up should wear the appropriate chemically protective
equipment. Keep all other personnel upwind and away from the spill/release. Restrict access
to area until completion of clean-up. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.

Environmental precautions : Ensure spilled product does not enter drains, sewers, waterways, or confined spaces.
Spill response/cleanup : Ventilate area of release. Remove all sources of ignition. Contain and absorb spilled liquid
with non-combustible, inert absorbent material (e.g. sand), then place absorbent material
into a container for later disposal (see Section 13). Notify the appropriate authorities as
required.
Prohibited materials : None known or reported by the manufacturer.

SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE


Safe Handling procedures : Use in a well-ventilated area. Wear suitable protective equipment during handling. Avoid
breathing mist or vapours. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Keep away from
extreme heat and flame. Avoid contact with incompatible materials. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
Storage requirements : Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Store away from incompatibles and out of direct
sunlight. Storage area should be clearly identified, clear of obstruction and accessible only
to trained and authorized personnel. Inspect periodically for damage or leaks.
