SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES
First Aid Measures
General advice Immediate medical attention is required. In case of accident or unwellness, seek
medical
advice immediately (show directions for use or safety data sheet if possible).
Eye contact Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses
and
continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Call a physician
immediately.
Skin Contact Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of
water. Consult a physician if necessary.Inhalation Remove to fresh air Avoid direct contact with skin. Use barrier to give mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation Immediate medical attention is required If not breathing, give artificial
respiration Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed Call a physician
Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Self-protection of the first aider Remove all sources of ignition.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms No data available.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Note to physicians May cause sensitization of susceptible persons.
SECTION 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media
Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances
and the
surrounding environment.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media None.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Specific hazards arising from the
chemical
In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. May cause sensitization by
inhalation and skin contact. Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating and
toxic gases and vapors.

Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters
Protective equipment and precautions
for firefighters
Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. In the event of fire
and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ensure
adequate
ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use personal protective equipment as required.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent product from
entering drains. Do
not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. See Section 12 for additional
Ecological Information.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containment Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Cover powder spill with
plastic sheet or
tarp to minimize spreading. Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.
Methods for cleaning up Use personal protective equipment as required. Cover powder spill with
plastic sheet or tarpto minimize spreading and keep powder dry. Take up mechanically, placing in appropriate
containers for disposal. Avoid creating dust. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Soak
up with inert absorbent material.
SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Keep away from
heat, sparks,
flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static electricity).
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion-proof equipment. All equipment used when handling the product must be
grounded.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Conditions Keep tightly closed in a dry and
cool place. Keep in properly labeled containers. Keep
containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store at room temperature.
Incompatible materials None known based on information supplied.
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Control parameters
Exposure Guidelines This product, as supplied, does not contain any hazardous materials with
occupational
exposure limits established by the region specific regulatory bodies.
Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Tight sealing safety goggles.
Skin and Body Protection Wear protective gloves and protective clothing.
Respiratory protection If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH/MSHA
approved
respiratory protection should be worn. Positive-pressure supplied air respirators may be
required for high airborne contaminant concentrations. Respiratory protection must be
provided in accordance with current local regulations.
General Hygiene Considerations When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Regular cleaning of
equipment, work area and
clothing is recommended.
