Section 4 - First Aid Measures

Inhalation
‐
Move victim to fresh air. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Skin

‐
Immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of water. Call a physician if symptoms
occur. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing
before reuse.
Eye

‐
IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact
lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get
medical advice/attention.
Ingestion

‐
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical
personnel. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Notes to Physician

‐
Aspiration of liquid into the lungs during swallowing or vomiting can cause lung
inflammation, serious lung damage and even death from chemical pneumonitis.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Extinguishing Media
‐
LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam.
SMALL FIRES: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam.
Unsuitable Extinguishing
Media

‐
Do not use direct stream of water.
Firefighting Procedures

‐
Fight advanced or massive fires from safe distance or protected location. Avoid
water in a straight hose stream as the stream will cause splatter and spread fire. If
product is heated above its flash point it will produce vapors sufficient to support
combustion. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground and are
ignited by heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources at locations near the
point of release.
Unusual Fire and Explosion
Hazards

‐
Combustible liquid. Containers may explode when heated. May release irritating
or toxic gases, fumes, or vapors.
Hazardous Combustion
Products

‐
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons.
Protection of Firefighters

‐
Fire fighters should wear complete protective clothing including self-contained
breathing apparatus.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions
‐
If you have not donned special protective clothing approved for this material, do not
perform containment activities. Stay upwind to prevent exposure to vapors.
Ventilate the area before entry.
Emergency Procedures

‐
ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate
area) Isolate the area and contain the spilled material. Persons not wearing the
appropriate PPE should be removed from the area until the spill is cleaned up.
Environmental Precautions

‐
Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.
Containment/Clean-up
Measures

‐
Contain and recover liquid when possible. Contain and/or absorb spill with inert
material (e.g. sand, vermiculite), then place in suitable container. Do not flush to
sewer or allow entering waterways. Do not use water to flush spill area.

Use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
