------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------4. FIRST-AID MEASURES
Ingestion
If accidentally swallowed, give large quantities of water or milk to dilute the
effects on the stomach. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention.
Inhalation
If inhalation causes adverse effects, remove to fresh air. If problem persists,
seek medical attention.
Skin contact
In case of contact, immediately flush with plenty of water. Remove
contaminated clothing. In case of prolonged irritation, seek medical attention.
Eye contact
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Eyelids
should be held apart during irrigation to ensure water contact with entire
surface of eyes and lids. Seek immediate medical attention.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------5.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Non-flammable at room temperature, but will burn. In case of fire, use water spray, dry chemical, foam or
carbon dioxide extinguishers. Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool. For large fires, fire-fighters
should wear full emergency protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------6.
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Always wear appropriate protective clothing (Refer to section 8)
Large quantities
Contain and absorb with sand or sawdust and prevent from entering drains or
watercourses; should this occur, the relevant Local Authority must be notified.
Small quantities
Soak up with absorbent material and remove to a chemical disposal area.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. Refer to Section 8 for appropriate
personal protection equipment. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Inhalation
Avoid prolonged or repeated breathing of vapour.
Skin contact
Avoid contact with skin or clothing.
Eyes
Avoid contact with eyes.
Storage Keep in tightly sealed containers and store in a cool, dry place, avoiding exposure to heat, light,
moisture and air.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
Engineering controls The following exposure control techniques may be used effectively minimise
employee exposure: local exhaust ventilation, enclosed system design, process isolation and remote control
in combination with appropriate use of personal protective equipment and prudent work practices. These
techniques may not necessarily address all issues pertaining to your operations. We, therefore, recommend
that you consult with experts of your choice to determine whether or not your programmes are adequate.
If airborne contaminants are generated when the materials are heated or handled, sufficient ventilation in
volume and air flow patterns should be provided to keep air contaminant concentrations below acceptable
levels. Refer to Section 2 which details specific exposure limits where applicable.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Where air contaminants can exceed acceptable criteria, use approved protection equipment. Respirators
should be selected based on the form and concentration of contaminants in air. Use goggles if contact is
likely. Wear impervious gloves as required to prevent skin contact.
