Section 4 First Aid Measures


INGESTION: MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. Call physician or Poison Control Center immediately. Induce vomiting only if advised by appropriate medical personnel.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

INHALATION: MAY BE HARMFUL. IF INHALED. CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.

EYE CONTACT: CAUSES EYE IRRITATION. Check for and remove contact lenses. Flush thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids
occasionally. Get immediate medical attention.

SKIN ABSORPTION: MAY BE HARMFUL IF ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN. MAY CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION. Remove contaminated clothing. Flush thoroughly with mild soap
and water. If irritation occurs, get medical attention.

Section 5 Fire Fighting Measures


Suitable Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, dry sand, alcohol foam.
Protective Actions for Fire-fighters: In fire conditions, wear a NIOSH/MSHA-approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear. Use water spray to keep
fire-exposed containers cool.
Specific Hazards: During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Vapors formed from this product are heavier than
air and may travel along the ground to a distant source of ignition and flash back instantly. Flame may not be visible in daylight.

Section 6 Accidental Release Measures


Personal Precautions: Evacuate personnel to safe area. Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Provide adequate ventilation.
Environmental Precautions: Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways.
Containment and Cleanup: Remove all sources of ignition. Absorb with inert dry material, sweep or vacuum up and place in a suitable container for proper disposal. Wash spill
area with soap and water.
Section 7 Handling & Storage Page E2 of E2
Precautions for Safe Handling: Read label on container before using. Do not wear contact lenses when working with chemicals. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not inhale vapors, spray or mist. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid ingestion. Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove and
wash clothing before reuse.
Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep away from ignition sources.

Section 8 Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
