4. First Aid Measures

First aid procedures
Eye contact

Rinse with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. If hot product contacts
eye, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately.

Skin contact

Rinse skin with water/shower. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. If hot
product contacts skin, cool under running water and get medical attention.

Inhalation

If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth. If ingestion of a large amount does occur, call a poison control center immediately.
Do not induce vomiting without advice from poison control center.

Protective equipment and
precautions for firefighters
Fire fighting
equipment/instructions

Not flammable by OSHA criteria. Not combustible by OSHA criteria. Porous material such as rags,
paper, insulation, or organic clay may spontaneously combust when wetted with this material.
Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide.
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

Upon decomposition, this product emits carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and/or low molecular
weight hydrocarbons.
Wear suitable protective equipment.
Wear suitable protective equipment. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions

Keep unnecessary personnel away. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during
clean-up.

Environmental precautions

Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.

Methods for containment

ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Stop the
flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible.

Methods for cleaning up

Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth
and place into containers.
Small Spills: Absorb spill with vermiculite or other inert material. Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.
Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the
MSDS.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling

Avoid inhalation of vapors and spray mists. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Follow all MSDS/label
precautions even after container is emptied because they may retain product residues. DO NOT
handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material
from direct sunlight. Porous material such as rags, paper, insulation, or organic clay may
spontaneously combust when wetted with this material. May auto-oxidize with sufficient heat
generation to ignite if spread (as a thin film) or absorbed on porous or fibrous material.
Contaminated rags and cloths must be put in fireproof containers for disposal.

Storage

Keep containers closed when not in use. Do not store in direct sunlight. Store at ambient
temperature and atmospheric pressure. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.

Skin protection

Normal work clothing (long sleeved shirts and long pants) is recommended.

Respiratory protection

When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if there is a risk of exposure to
dust/fume at levels exceeding the exposure limits.

General hygiene
considerations

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Eye wash fountain and
emergency showers are recommended. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
