5. Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media : Recommended: alcohol-resistant foam, CO2, powders, water spray or mist.
Not to be used : water jet.
Recommendations : Fire will produce dense black smoke. Exposure to decomposition products may cause a health
hazard. Appropriate breathing apparatus may be required. Cool closed containers exposed to fire
with water. Do not release runoff from fire to sewers or waterways.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions : Exclude sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Refer to
protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
Spill : Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or
diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section
13). Place in a suitable container. The contaminated area should be cleaned immediately with a
suitable decontaminant. One possible (flammable) decontaminant comprises (by volume): water (45
parts), ethanol or isopropyl alcohol (50 parts) and concentrated (d: 0,880) ammonia solution (5 parts)
. A non-flammable alternative is sodium carbonate (5 parts) and water (95 parts). Add the same
decontaminant to the remnants and let stand for several days until no further reaction in an unsealed
container. Once this stage is reached, close container and dispose of according to local regulations
(see section 13). Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses. If the product contaminates lakes,
rivers, or sewers, inform the appropriate authorities in accordance with local regulations.

Note: see section 8 for personal protective equipment and section 13 for waste disposal.

7. Handling and storage

Persons with a history of asthma, allergies or chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process
in which this preparation is used.

Examination of lung function should be carried out on a regular basis on persons spraying this preparation.
Handling : Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapours may form explosive mixtures
with air. Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapours in air and avoid
vapour concentrations higher than the occupational exposure limits.

In addition, the product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other sources of
ignition have been excluded. Electrical equipment should be protected to the appropriate standard.

To dissipate static electricity during transfer, earth drum and connect to receiving container with
bonding strap. Operators should wear antistatic footwear and clothing and floors should be of the
conducting type.

Keep container tightly closed. Precautions should be taken to minimise exposure to atmospheric
humidity or water. CO2 will be formed, which, in closed containers, could result in pressurisation.
Care should be taken when re-opening partly-used containers. Keep away from heat, sparks and
flame. No sparking tools should be used.

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid the inhalation of dust, particulates, spray or mist arising from
the application of this preparation. Avoid inhalation of dust from sanding.

Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in area where this material is handled, stored and
processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking.

Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8).

Never use pressure to empty. Container is not a pressure vessel. Always keep in containers made
from the same material as the original one.

Comply with the health and safety at work laws.

When operators, whether spraying or not, have to work inside the spray booth, ventilation is unlikely
to be sufficient to control particulates and solvent vapour in all cases. In such circumstances they
should wear a compressed air-fed respirator during the spraying process and until such time as the
particulates and solvent vapour concentration has fallen below the exposure limits.
Storage : Store in accordance with local regulations. Observe label precautions. Store in a cool, well-ventilated
area away from incompatible materials and ignition sources. Keep away from heat and direct
sunlight.

Keep away from: oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strong acids, amines, alcohols, water.
No smoking. Prevent unauthorised access. Containers that have been opened must be carefully
resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Do not empty into drains..

8. Exposure controls/personal protection

Persons with a history of asthma, allergies or chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process
in which this preparation is used.

Examination of lung function should be carried out on a regular basis on persons spraying this preparation.
Engineering measures : Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable, this should be achieved by the use of
local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. Air-fed protective respiratory equipment must
be worn by the spray operator, even when good ventilation is provided. In other operations, if local
exhaust ventilation and good general extraction are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of
particulates and solvent vapours below the OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. (See
Personal protection.)

The product reacts slowly with water, resulting in the production of carbon dioxide. In closed containers, pressure build-up could result
in distortion, expansion and, in extreme cases, bursting of the container.

11. Toxicological information

Based on the properties of the isocyanate components and considering toxicological data on similar preparations, this preparation
may cause acute irritation and/or sensitisation of the respiratory system, leading to an asthmatic condition, wheezing and tightness of
the chest. Sensitised persons may subsequently show asthmatic symptoms when exposed to atmospheric concentrations well below
the OEL. Repeated exposure may lead to permanent respiratory disability.
Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in adverse
health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys, liver and central
nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases,
