SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1. Description of first aid measures
Inhalation
Move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Provide fresh air, warmth and rest, preferably in a comfortable upright
sitting position. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues. If respiratory problems, artificial respiration/oxygen. Be
aware that symptoms of lung oedema (shortness of breath) may develop up to 24 hours after exposure. Immediately call an
ambulance.
Ingestion
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Immediately rinse mouth and provide fresh air. Get medical attention immediately!
Skin contact
Remove affected person from source of contamination. Immediately remove contaminated clothing. Wash the skin
immediately with soap and water. Get medical attention promptly if symptoms occur after washing.
Eye contact
Promptly wash eyes with plenty of water while lifting the eye lids. Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes
before rinsing. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention. Get medical attention if any discomfort
continues.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Inhalation
Fire can be extinguished using: Water spray, fog or mist. Foam. Powder.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous combustion products
Thermal decomposition or combustion may liberate carbon oxides and other toxic gases or vapours.
Fire causes formation of toxic gases. Aerosol cans may explode in a fire.
Specific hazards
Fire creates: Irritating gases/vapours/fumes of: Hydrogen cyanide (HCN). Nitrous gases (NOx).
5.3. Advice for firefighters
Special Fire Fighting Procedures
Avoid breathing fire vapours. Use pressurised air mask if product is involved in a fire.
Self contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet.

POLYURETHANE FOAM
6.2. Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
When dealing with a spillage, please consult the section relating to suitable protective measures. Wear necessary
protective equipment. Stop leak if possible without risk. Flush with plenty of water to clean spillage area. Do not
contaminate water sources or sewer.
6.4. Reference to other sections
Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. See section 11 for additional information on
health hazards. For waste disposal, see section 13.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Persons with impaired lung functions should not handle this preparation. Persons susceptible to allergic reactions should
not handle this product. Avoid forming spray/aerosol mists. Avoid inhalation of vapours/spray and contact with skin and
eyes. Ventilate well, avoid breathing vapours. Use approved respirator if air contamination is above accepted level. Use
mechanical ventilation in case of handling which causes formation of vapours. Spraying is permitted only in closed
systems, spray cabinets or spray boxes with adequate ventilation. Eye wash facilities and emergency shower must be
available when handling this product.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep in original container. Store in tightly closed original container in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from
heat, sparks and open flame.
7.3. Specific end use(s)
The identified uses for this product are detailed in Section 1.2.

Process conditions
Use engineering controls to reduce air contamination to permissible exposure level. Provide eyewash station.
Engineering measures
Provide sufficient ventilation during operations which cause vapour formation. Provide adequate ventilation, including
appropriate local extraction, to ensure that the defined occupational exposure limit is not exceeded.
Respiratory equipment
Respiratory protection must be used if air contamination exceeds acceptable level. It is recommended to use respiratory
equipment with combination filter, type A2/2. EN14387 When spraying use suitable air-supplied respirator.
Hand protection
Use protective gloves made of: Rubber, neoprene or PVC. The most suitable glove must be chosen in consultation with
the gloves supplier, who can inform about the breakthrough time of the glove material. Gloves should conform to EN374

Eye protection
Wear approved chemical safety goggles where eye exposure is reasonably probable. EN166
Other Protection
Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of liquid contact and repeated or prolonged vapour contact.
Hygiene measures
DO NOT SMOKE IN WORK AREA! Wash hands at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the
toilet. Promptly remove any clothing that becomes contaminated. Wash promptly if skin becomes contaminated. When
using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Residues and empty containers should be taken care of as hazardous waste according to local and national provisions.
