FIRST AID MEASURES
Description of first aid measures
Inhalation:
Remove patient from exposure, keep warm and at
rest. If symptoms persist, obtain medical attention.
Skin Contact:
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and
drench affected skin with plenty of water, then was
with soap and water. If symptoms persist, obtain
medical attention. Contaminated clothing should be
thoroughly cleaned.
Eye Contact:
If substance has got into the eyes, immediately wash
out with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If
symptoms persist, obtain medical attention.
Ingestion:
Obtain immediate medical attention. Do not induce
vomiting. Provided the patient is conscious, wash out
mouth with water and give 200-300 ml (half a pint) of
water to drink.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Foam, CO2 or dry powder. For large fire use water.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media:
Do not use water jet.
5.2
Special hazards arising from
the substance or mixture
Vapor may create explosive atmosphere. The vapor
is heavier than air; beware of pits and confined
spaces. May give off toxic fumes in a fire. Carbon
monoxide, Carbon dioxide and various hydrocarbons.
5.3
Advice for fire-fighters
A self contained breathing apparatus and suitable
protective clothing should be worn in fire conditions.
Keep fire exposed containers cool by spraying with
water.

6.1
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective
equipment and emergency
procedures
Eliminate sources of ignition. Vapor may create
explosive atmosphere. The vapor is heavier
than air; beware of pits and confined spaces.
Ensure adequate ventilation. Use
non-sparking hand tools and explosion proof
electrical equipment. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges.
Avoid inhalation of vapors. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Wear suitable protective clothing and
gloves. (See Section: 8). Contaminated clothing
should be thoroughly cleaned.
6.2
Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter drains, sewers or watercourses.
Spillages or uncontrolled discharges into
watercourses must be alerted to the Environment
Agency or other appropriate regulatory body.
6.3
Methods and material for
containment and
cleaning up
Adsorb spillages onto sand, earth or any suitable
adsorbent material. Sweep up carefully with
non-sparking tools. Transfer to a container for
disposal. Wash spill area with soapy water.
Contaminated adsorbent must be removed in sealed,
plastic lined drums and disposed of via an authorized
waste disposal contractor.
6.4
Reference to other sections
Personal Protection: See Section: 8.

HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1
Precautions for safe handling
Eliminate sources of ignition. Vapor may create
explosive atmosphere. The vapor is heavier than air;
beware of pits and confined spaces. Provide
adequate ventilation, including appropriate local
extraction, to ensure that the occupational exposure
limit is not exceeded. Use non-sparking hand tools
and explosion proof electrical equipment. Take
precautionary measures against static discharges.
Avoid inhalation of vapors. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves.
(See Section: 8).
Do not eat, drink or smoke at the work place. Wash
hands and exposed skin after use. Contaminated
clothing should be thoroughly cleaned.
7.2
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Keep
from direct sunlight. Keep away from frost. Keep only
in the original container in a cool, well-ventilated
place. Keep/store away from oxidizing agents.
7.3
Specific end use(s)
Industrial use only.
