SECTION 4 : First aid measures

Description of first aid measures
After inhalation: Move exposed individual to fresh air. Loosen clothing as necessary and position individual in
a comfortable position.Seek medical advice if discomfort or irritation persists.
After skin contact: Wash affected area with soap and water. Rinse thoroughly. Seek medical attention if
irritation, discomfort or vomiting persists.
After eye contact: Protect unexposed eye. Rinse/flush exposed eye(s) gently using water for 15-20 minutes.
Remove contact lens(es) if able to do so during rinsing. Seek medical attention if irritation persists or if
concerned.
After swallowing: Rinse mouth thoroughly. Do not induce vomiting. Have exposed individual drink sips of
water. Seek medical attention if irritation, discomfort or vomiting persists.

Irritation, Nausea,Headache, Shortness of breath.;
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:
If seeking medical attention, provide SDS document to physician.

SECTION 5 : Firefighting measures

Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing agents: If in laboratory setting, follow laboratory fire suppression procedures. Use
appropriate fire suppression agents for adjacent combustible materials or sources of ignition
For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents:
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Combustion products may include carbon oxides or other toxic vapors.
Advice for firefighters:
Protective equipment:
Additional information (precautions): Move product containers away from fire or keep cool with water
spray as a protective measure, where feasible.

SECTION 6 : Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Wear protective equipment. Use respiratory protective device against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol. Keep
unprotected persons away. Ensure adequate ventilation.Keep away from ignition sources. Protect from
heat.Stop the spill, if possible. Contain spilled material by diking or using inert absorbent. Transfer to a disposal
or recovery container.
Environmental precautions:
Prevent from reaching drains, sewer or waterway. Collect contaminated soil for characterization per Section 13
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
If in a laboratory setting, follow Chemical Hygiene Plan procedures.Collect liquids using vacuum or by use of
absorbents. Place into properly labeled containers for recovery or disposal. If necessary, use trained response
staff/contractor.

SECTION 7 : Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:
Prevent formation of aerosols. Follow good hygiene procedures when handling chemical materials. Do not eat,
drink, smoke, or use personal products when handling chemical substances. If in a laboratory setting, follow
Chemical Hygiene Plan.Use only in well ventilated areas.Avoid splashes or spray in enclosed areas.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Store in a cool location. Provide ventilation for containers. Avoid storage near extreme heat, ignition sources or
open flame. Store away from foodstuffs. Store away from oxidizing agents.Store in cool, dry conditions in well
sealed containers. Keep container tightly sealed.

SECTION 8 : Exposure controls/personal protection

Control Parameters: No applicable occupational exposure limits

Appropriate Engineering controls: Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in
the immediate vicinity of use/handling.Provide exhaust ventilation or
other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapor
or mists below the applicable workplace exposure limits (Occupational
Exposure Limits-OELs) indicated above.
Respiratory protection: Not required under normal conditions of use. Use suitable respiratory
protective device when high concentrations are present. Use suitable
respiratory protective device when aerosol or mist is formed. For spills,
respiratory protection may be advisable.
Protection of skin: The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/
the substance/ the preparation being used/handled.Selection of the glove
material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and
the degradation.
Eye protection: Safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
General hygienic measures: The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling
chemicals. Keep away from food, beverages and feed sources.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Wash hands
before breaks and at the end of work. Do not inhale
gases/fumes/dust/mist/vapor/aerosols. Avoid contact with the eyes and
skin.
