Section 4. First-aid measures


Description of necessary first aid measures
Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention.
Ingestion Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get
medical attention immediately. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and
cause damage.
Skin contact In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.
Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Eye contact In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Eyelids should be held away
from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Get medical attention if symptoms
occur.
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Notes to physician Treatment should in general be symptomatic and directed to relieving any effects.
Product can be aspirated on swallowing or following regurgitation of stomach
contents, and can cause severe and potentially fatal chemical pneumonitis, which
will require urgent treatment. Because of the risk of aspiration, induction of vomiting
and gastric lavage should be avoided. Gastric lavage should be undertaken only
after endotracheal intubation. Monitor for cardiac dysrhythmias.
Note: High Pressure Applications
Injections through the skin resulting from contact with the product at high pressure
constitute a major medical emergency. Injuries may not appear serious at first but
within a few hours tissue becomes swollen, discoloured and extremely painful with
extensive subcutaneous necrosis.
Surgical exploration should be undertaken without delay. Thorough and extensive
debridement of the wound and underlying tissue is necessary to minimise tissue
loss and prevent or limit permanent damage. Note that high pressure may force the
product considerable distances along tissue planes.
Protection of first-aiders No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. It
may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

Section 6. Accidental release measures


Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency Immediately contact emergency personnel. No action shall be taken involving any
personnel personal risk or without suitable training. Eliminate all ignition sources. Evacuate
surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering.
Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Floors may be slippery; use care to
avoid falling. No flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Avoid breathing vapour
or mist. Provide adequate ventilation. Put on appropriate personal protective
equipment (see Section 8).
For emergency responders Entry into a confined space or poorly ventilated area contaminated with vapour, mist
or fume is extremely hazardous without the correct respiratory protective equipment
and a safe system of work. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear a
suitable chemical protective suit. Chemical resistant boots. See also the
information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). Water polluting material. May be harmful
to the environment if released in large quantities. Collect spillage.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Small spill Eliminate all ignition sources. Stop leak if without risk. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion-proof equipment. Move containers from spill area. Absorb with an inert
material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. The method and
equipment used must be in conformance with appropriate regulations and industry
practice on explosive atmospheres. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal
contractor.
Large spill Eliminate all ignition sources. Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill
area. Approach the release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses,
basements or confined areas. Dike spill area and do not allow product to reach
sewage system and surface or ground water. 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).
Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Contaminated absorbent
material may pose the same hazard as the spilt product. The method and

Section 7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Do not get in
handling eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not swallow. Never siphon by mouth. Avoid
exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Avoid breathing vapour or mist.
Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid release to the environment. Do not enter
storage areas and confined spaces unless adequately ventilated. Wear appropriate
respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Take precautionary measures against
electrostatic discharges. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during
transfer by earthing and bonding containers and equipment before transferring
material. Wash thoroughly after handling. Eating, drinking and smoking should be
prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. Remove
contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas.
Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Keep in
the original container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material,
kept tightly closed when not in use. Store and use away from heat, sparks, open
flame or any other ignition source. Use explosion-proof electrical (ventilating,
lighting and material handling) equipment. Use only non-sparking tools. Empty
containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage. See also
Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage, Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved
including any area. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-
incompatibilities ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and
drink. Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidising materials. Keep
container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Store and use only in
equipment/containers designed for use with this product. Containers that have been
opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not
store in unlabelled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination.

Light hydrocarbon vapours can build up in the headspace of tanks. These can
cause flammability/explosion hazards even at temperatures below the normal flash
point (note: flash point must not be regarded as a reliable indicator of the potential
flammability of vapour in tank headspaces). Tank headspaces should always be
regarded as potentially flammable and care should be taken to avoid static electrical
discharge and all ignition sources during filling, ullaging and sampling from storage
tanks. Do not enter storage tanks. If entry to vessels is necessary, follow permit to
work procedures. Entry to any tanks or other confined space requires a full risk
assessment and appropriate control measures to be put in place in conformance
with appropriate regulations and industry practice on confined space entry. When
the product is pumped (e.g. during filling, discharge or ullaging) and when sampling,
there is a risk of static discharge. Ensure equipment used is properly earthed or
bonded to the tank structure. Electrical equipment should not be used unless it is
intrinsically safe (i.e. will not produce sparks). Explosive air/vapour mixtures may
form at ambient temperature. If product comes into contact with hot surfaces, or
leaks occur from pressurised fuel pipes, the vapour or mists generated will create a
flammability or explosion hazard. Product contaminated rags, paper or material
used to absorb spillages, represent a fire hazard, and should not be allowed to
accumulate. Dispose of safely immediately after use.

Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Recommended monitoring If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal, workplace
procedures atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness
of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory
protective equipment. Reference should be made to appropriate monitoring
standards. Reference to national guidance documents for methods for the
determination of hazardous substances will also be required.
Appropriate engineering Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the relevant
controls airborne concentrations below their respective occupational exposure limits. All
activities involving chemicals should be assessed for their risks to health, to ensure
exposures are adequately controlled. Personal protective equipment should only be
considered after other forms of control measures (e.g. engineering controls) have
been suitably evaluated. Personal protective equipment should conform to
appropriate standards, be suitable for use, be kept in good condition and properly
maintained.
Your supplier of personal protective equipment should be consulted for advice on
selection and appropriate standards. For further information contact your national
organisation for standards. The final choice of protective equipment will depend
upon a risk assessment. It is important to ensure that all items of personal
protective equipment are compatible.
Environmental exposure Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
controls they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process
equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and
safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Eye protection Chemical splash goggles.
Hand protection Wear chemical resistant gloves. Recommended: Nitrile gloves.

Do not re-use gloves. Protective gloves must give suitable protection against
mechanical risks (i.e. abrasion, blade cut and puncture). Protective gloves will
deteriorate over time due to physical and chemical damage. Inspect and replace
gloves on a regular basis. The frequency of replacement will depend upon the
circumstances of use.
Skin protection Use of protective clothing is good industrial practice. Cotton or polyester/cotton
overalls will only provide protection against light superficial contamination that will
not soak through to the skin. Overalls should be laundered on a regular basis.
When the risk of skin exposure is high (e.g. when cleaning up spillages or if there is
a risk of splashing) then chemical resistant aprons and/or impervious chemical suits
and boots will be required. Wear suitable protective clothing. Footwear highly
resistant to chemicals. When there is a risk of ignition from static electricity, wear
anti-static protective clothing. For greatest effectiveness against static electricity,
overalls, boots and gloves should all be anti-static. When there is a risk of ignition
wear inherently fire resistant protective clothes and gloves. Work clothing / overalls
should be laundered on a regular basis. Laundering of contaminated work clothing
should only be done by professional cleaners who have been told about the hazards
of the contamination. Always keep contaminated work clothing away from
uncontaminated work clothing and uncontaminated personal clothes. When the risk
of skin exposure is high (from experience this could apply to the following tasks:
cleaning work, maintenance and service, filling and transfer, taking samples and
cleaning up spillages) then a chemical protective suit and boots will be required.
Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task
being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist
before handling this product. Recommended:

Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Respiratory protection In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. If there is a
requirement for the use of a respiratory protective device, but the use of breathing
apparatus (independent of ambient atmosphere) is not required, then a suitable
filtering device must be worn. The filter class must be suitable for the maximum
contaminant concentration (gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when
handling the product. The correct choice of respiratory protection depends upon the
chemicals being handled, the conditions of work and use, and the condition of the
respiratory equipment. Safety procedures should be developed for each intended
application. Respiratory protection equipment should therefore be chosen in
consultation with the supplier/manufacturer and with a full assessment of the
working conditions. Respiratory protection should conform to AS/NZS 1715 and AS/
NZS 1716.
