General advice : Move out of dangerous area. Show this material safety data
sheet to the doctor in attendance. Material may produce a
serious, potentially fatal pneumonia if swallowed or vomited.
In case of skin contact : If skin irritation persists, call a physician. If on skin, rinse well
with water. If on clothes, remove clothes.
In case of eye contact : Immediately flush eye(s) with plenty of water. Remove contact
lenses. Protect unharmed eye. Keep eye wide open while
rinsing. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.
Specific hazards during fire : Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water
fighting courses.
Fire and explosion : Do not spray on an open flame or any other incandescent
protection material. Take necessary action to avoid static electricity
discharge (which might cause ignition of organic vapors). Use
only explosion-proof equipment. Keep away from open flames,
hot surfaces and sources of ignition.
Environmental precautions : Prevent product from entering drains. Prevent further leakage
or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers
and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.
Methods for cleaning up : Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible
absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth,
vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to
local / national regulations (see section 13).
Handling
Advice on safe handling : Avoid formation of aerosol. Do not breathe vapors/dust. Avoid
exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. For personal protection see
section 8. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited
in the application area. Take precautionary measures against
static discharges. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or
exhaust in work rooms. Container may be opened only under
exhaust ventilation hood. Open drum carefully as content may
be under pressure. Dispose of rinse water in accordance with
local and national regulations.
Storage
Requirements for storage : No smoking. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-
areas and containers ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Observe label precautions. Electrical installations / working
