4. FIRST-AID MEASURES

Eyes

Skin

Rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention if necessary.

Inhalation Move casualty to fresh air and keep at rest. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention if necessary.

Flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and wash using soap. Get medical attention if necessary.

Ingestion Do Not Induce Vomiting! Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If conscious, wash out mouth with water. Get medical attention immediately if necessary.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable (and unsuitable) extinguishing media

Product is flammable. Use alcohol foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide for small fires. Use large amounts of water applied as mist or

Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters

Specific hazards arising from the chemical spray from a distance for large fires. Cool unopened containers with water. Use appropriate media for adjacent fire.

Wear self-contained, approved breathing apparatus and full protective clothing, including eye protection and boots.

Emits toxic fumes (carbon oxides) under fire conditions. See also

Stability and Reactivity section.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Use with adequate ventilation and remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapors accumulating to form explosive concentrations.

Vapors can accumulate in low areas.

Environmental precautions

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Prevent spillage from entering drains. Any release to the environment may be subject to federal/national or local reporting requirements.

Neutralize spill with sodium bicarbonate or lime. Absorb spill with noncombustible absorbent material, then place in a suitable container for disposal. Clean surfaces thoroughly with water to remove residual contamination. Dispose of all waste and cleanup materials in accordance with regulations.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling

See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapors/mists. Keep away from sources of ignition. Not smoking. Take measures to prevent the buildup of electrostatic charge. Keep container closed when not in use.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Store in cool, dry well ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from incompatible materials

(see section 10 for incompatibilities).
