4. FIRST AID MEASURES. 1
Eyes
If material gets into the eyes, immediately flush eyes gently with water for at least
15 minutes while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms develop as a result of vapor
exposure, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air before
flushing as recommended above. Seek immediate medical attention.

Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with large amounts of water.
If skin is damaged, seek immediate medical attention. If skin is not damaged and
symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse.
Ingestion
Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give
anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a
physician, medical facility, or poison control center for advice about whether to induce
vomiting. If possible, do not leave individual unattended.
Inhalation
If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into
fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention; keep person warm and quiet. If person is
not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.

Treatment: No information available.
5. FYItF-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media
Foam, Dry chemical, Water spray, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Hazardous combustion products
May form:, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons
Precautions for fire -fighting
If product is heated above its flash point it will produce vapors sufficient to
support combustion. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground and be
ignited by heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources at locations near the point
of release. Substance is an oxidizer that will cause moderate increase in the burning rate
of combustible materials with which it comes into contact. Never use welding or cutting
torch on or near drum (even empty) because product (even just residue) can ignite
explosively. Wear full firefighting turn -out gear (full Bunker gear), and respiratory
protection (SCBA). Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers and structures until
fire is out if it can be done with minimal risk. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water
used for cooling purposes.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions
For personal protection see section 8. Persons not wearing protective equipment
should be excluded from.area of spill until clean-up has been completed.
Environmental precautions
No data
Methods for cleaning up
Immediately soak up spill with perlite or vermiculite. Sweep up with non -
sparking equipment after wetting down with 10% NaOH.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied
containers retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions
given in the data sheetmust be observed. Static ignition hazard can result from handling
and use. Electrically bond and ground all containers, personnel and equipment before
transfer or use of material. Special precautions may be necessary to dissipate static
elzctricity for non-conductive containers. Use proper bonding and grounding during
product transfer as described in National Fire Protection Association document NFPA 77.
Storage
Store below 27 degrees C (80 degrees F) in original container. Store out of direct
sunlight away from incomnatible.and cnmh wtiWA a —+a 4-i n-r-_ ��_.•

concentrations and ventilation. It is ultimately the responsibility of the employer to
follow regulatory guidelines established by local authorities.'
Exposure controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to
maintain exposure below level of overexposure (from known, suspected or apparent
adverse effects).
Eye protection
Chemical splashgoggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are advised;
however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety glasses. Consult your safety
representative.
Skin and body protection
Wear resistant gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier).
To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots.
Respiratory protection
If overexposure has been determined or documented, a NIOSH-approved air
supplied respirator is advised in absence of proper environmental control. OSHA
regulations also permit other NIOSH respirators under specified conditions. (See your
safety equipment supplier.) Engineering or administrative controls should be
implemented to reduce exposure.
