3. COMPOSITION INFORMATION
If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre (Phone Australia 131 126, New Zealand 0800
764 766).
Inhalation: Remove victim from exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and
loosen remaining clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until
fully recovered. Seek medical advice if effects persist.
Skin Contact: If skin or hair contact occurs, immediately remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair
with running water. Continue flushing with water until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a
Doctor; or for 15 minutes and transport to Doctor or Hospital.
Eye contact: Immediately irrigate with copious quantities of water for 15 minutes. Eyelids to be held open.
Remove clothing if contaminated and wash skin. Urgently seek medical assistance. Transport to hospital or
medical centre.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water to drink.
Never give anything by the mouth to an unconscious patient. If vomiting occurs give further water. Seek medical

material can burn if ignited.
SMALL SPILLS
Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination. Avoid inhalation of vapours or dust. Wipe up
with absorbent (clean rag or paper towels). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal.
LARGE SPILLS
Clear area of all unprotected personnel. Slippery when spilt. Avoid accidents, clean up immediately. Wear
protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination and the inhalation of vapours. Work up wind or
increase ventilation. Contain - prevent run off into drains and waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert
material). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal. If contamination of crops,
sewers or waterways has occurred advise local emergency services.
Handling: Avoid eye contact and skin contact. Avoid inhalation of vapour, mist or aerosols.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from foodstuffs. Store
away from incompatible materials described in Section 10. Store away from sources of heat and/or ignition.
Keep container standing upright. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for leaks.
This material is a Scheduled Poison Schedule 5 (Caution) and must be stored, maintained and used in
accordance with the relevant regulations.
TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working
week over an entire working life.
STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) - the average airborne concentration over a 15 minute period which should not
be exceeded at any time during a normal eight-hour workday.
‘Sk' Notice - absorption through the skin may be a significant source of exposure. The exposure standard is
invalidated if such contact should occur.
Peak Limitation - a ceiling concentration that should not be exceeded over a measurement period, which should
be as short as possible, but not exceeding 15 minutes.
These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept too as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as

fine dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative
toxicity.
If the directions for use on the product label are followed, exposure of individuals using the product should not

product manufacture.
Biological Limit Values: As per the “National Model Regulations for the Control of Workplace Hazardous
Substances (Safe Work Australia)” the ingredients in this material do not have a Biological Limit Allocated.
Engineering Measures: Ensure ventilation is adequate to maintain air concentrations below Exposure
Standards. Use only in well ventilated areas. Use with local exhaust ventilation or while wearing appropriate
respirator.
MANUFACTURING, PACKAGING AND TRANSPORT: Wear safety shoes, overalls, gloves, safety glasses.
Available information suggests that gloves made from nitrile rubber should be suitable for intermittent contact.
However, due to variations in glove construction and local conditions, the user should make a final assessment.
