Occupational exposure limits, if available, are listed in Section 8.

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. 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. Get medical
attention immediately.
Skin contact In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Drench contaminated clothing
with water before removing. This is necessary to avoid the risk of sparks from static
electricity that could ignite contaminated clothing. Contaminated clothing is a fire
hazard. Contaminated leather, particularly footwear, must be discarded. Clean
shoes thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention.
Eye contact In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing.
Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention.
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 5. Firefighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable In case of fire, use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide extinguisher or
spray.
Not suitable Do not use water jet.
Specific hazards arising Combustible liquid. Fire water contaminated with this material must be contained
from the chemical and prevented from being discharged to any waterway, sewer or drain. In a fire or if
heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a
subsequent explosion. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. This
material is toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects. Vapours can form explosive
mixtures with air. Vapours are heavier than air and can spread along the ground or
float on water surfaces to remote ignition sources. Vapours may accumulate in low
or confined areas or travel a considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash
back. This product is a poor conductor of electricity and can become
electrostatically charged. If sufficient charge is accumulated, ignition of flammable
mixtures can occur. To reduce potential for static discharge, use proper bonding
and grounding procedures. This liquid may accumulate static electricity when filling
properly-grounded containers. Static accumulation may be significantly increased
by the presence of small quantities of water or other contaminants. Liquid will float
and may reignite on surface of water.
Hazardous combustion Combustion products may include the following:
products carbon oxides (CO, CO2) (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide)
Hazchem code 3Z
Special precautions for fire- No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
fighters Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Special protective Fire-fighters should wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus
equipment for fire-fighters (SCBA) and full turnout gear.

Section 6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency Entry into a confined space or poorly ventilated area contaminated with vapour, mist
personnel 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".
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. In case of small
spillages in closed waters (i.e. ports), contain product with floating barriers or other
equipment. Collect spilled product by absorbing with specific floating absorbents. If
possible, large spillages in open waters should be contained with floating barriers or
other mechanical means. If this is not possible, control the spreading of the spillage,
and collect the product by skimming or other suitable mechanical means. The use
of dispersants should be advised by an expert, and, if required, approved by local
authorities. Collect recovered product and other contaminated materials in suitable
tanks or containers for recycle, recovery or safe disposal.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Small spill Eliminate all ignition sources. Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill
area. Absorb with an inert material and place in an appropriate waste disposal
container. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Dispose of via a
licensed waste disposal contractor. The method and equipment used must be in
conformance with appropriate regulations and industry practice on explosive
atmospheres.

Section 6. Accidental release measures
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. Use spark-proof
tools and explosion-proof equipment. Contaminated absorbent material may pose
the same hazard as the spilt product. 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.

Section 7. Handling and storage

Precautions for safe Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Avoid exposure -
handling obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions
have been read and understood. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not
swallow. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage.
Never siphon by mouth. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Use only with adequate
ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. 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. Avoid
contact of spilt material and runoff with soil and surface waterways. Handling
operations that can promote accumulation of static charges include but are not
limited to: mixing, filtering, pumping at high flow rates, splash filling, creating mists
or sprays, tank and container filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch
loading, vacuum truck operations. Restrict flow velocity according to API 2003
(2008), NFPA 77 (2007), and Laurence Britton, “Avoiding Static Ignition Hazards in
Chemical Operations”. To reduce potential for static discharge, ensure that all
equipment is properly grounded and bonded and meets appropriate electrical
classification requirements.
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. Store locked up. 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 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. 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.
