First-aid measures after inhalation : If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for
breathing. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
First-aid measures after skin contact : If irritation occurs, flush skin with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
Remove affected clothing and wash all exposed skin area with mild soap and water, followed
by warm water rinse.
First-aid measures after eye contact : Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Obtain medical attention if pain, blinking or redness
persists. Direct contact with the eyes is likely to be irritating.
First-aid measures after ingestion : IF SWALLOWED: immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Do NOT induce
vomiting.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms/injuries after inhalation : May cause respiratory tract irritation.

production, with possible redness and swelling.
Symptoms/injuries after ingestion : May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. This product may be aspirated into the lungs and
cause chemical pneumonitis. May cause stomach distress, nausea or vomiting.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Symptoms may not appear immediately. In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label or SDS where
possible).

SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

5.1. Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media : Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, halons or foam.

Unsuitable extinguishing media : Do not use a heavy water stream.

5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Fire hazard : Flammable aerosol. Products of combustion may include, and are not limited to: oxides of
carbon and oxides of nitrogen.
Explosion hazard : Heat may build pressure, rupturing closed containers, spreading fire and increasing risk of
burns and injuries.
Reactivity : No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

5.3. Advice for firefighters

Firefighting instructions : DO NOT fight fire when fire reaches explosives. Evacuate area. Exercise caution when fighting
any chemical fire.
Protection during firefighting : Keep upwind of fire. Wear full fire fighting turn-out gear (full Bunker gear) and respiratory
protection (SCBA). Vapors may be heavier than air and may travel along the ground to a
distant ignition source and flash back. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
General measures : Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry to
unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Isolate from fire, if possible, without unnecessary risk.
Remove ignition sources. Use special care to avoid static electric charges.

6.1.1. For non-emergency personnel

Emergency procedures : Evacuate unnecessary personnel.

6.1.2. For emergency responders

Protective equipment : Equip cleanup crew with proper protection.

Emergency procedures : Ventilate area.

6.2. Environmental precautions

Prevent entry to sewers and public waters. Notify authorities if liquid enters sewers or public waters.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For containment : Eliminate sources of ignition. Contain and/or absorb spill with inert material (e.g. sand,
vermiculite), then place in a suitable container. Do not flush to sewer or allow to enter
waterways. Use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Methods for cleaning up : Scoop up material and place in a disposal container. Provide ventilation.

6.4. Reference to other sections

See section 8 for further information on protective clothing and equipment and section 13 for advice on waste disposal.

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Precautions for safe handling : Do not spray on an open flame or other ignition source. Keep away from sources of ignition -
No smoking. Use non-sparking tools. Use explosion-proof equipment. Take precautionary
measures against static discharge. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not swallow. Do not
breathe gas, fumes, vapour or spray. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Use only
outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Do not pierce or burn, even after use.
Hygiene measures : Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including anyincompatibilities

Technical measures : Proper grounding procedures to avoid static electricity should befollowed.
Storage conditions : Keep locked up and out of reach of children. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C/
122 °F. Store away from direct sunlight or other heat sources. Keep in fireproof place.
Storage area : Store in a well-ventilated place.
