4. First-aid measures
Inhalation Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.
Skin contact Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash skin with soap and water. Call a physician
or poison control center immediately. Chemical burns must be treated by a physician. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse.
Eye contact Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if
present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Ingestion Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If
vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs.
Most important Burning pain and severe corrosive skin damage. Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may
symptoms/effects, acute and include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Permanent eye damage including
delayed blindness could result. Prolonged exposure may cause chronic effects.
Indication of immediate Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Chemical burns: Flush with water
medical attention and special immediately. While flushing, remove clothes which do not adhere to affected area. Call an
treatment needed ambulance. Continue flushing during transport to hospital. Keep victim under observation.
Symptoms may be delayed.
General information IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice
(show the label where possible). Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s)
involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in
attendance. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

containment and cleaning up
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product
recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.

Never return spills to original containers for re-use.

Environmental precautions Avoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of all
environmental releases. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into
drains, water courses or onto the ground.

7. Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid
prolonged exposure. Pregnant or breastfeeding women must not handle this product. Should be
handled in closed systems, if possible. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Wear
appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid release to the environment. Observe good
industrial hygiene practices.
