HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Hazard Australia: Classification Not classified as Hazardous according to criteria of National Occupational Health & Safety Commission, Australia (NOHSC). Not classified as Dangerous Goods according to the Australian Code for the Transport of Dangerous Goods by Road and Rail. Not classified as Hazardous according to the Hazardous Substances (Minimum Degrees of Hazard) Regulations 2001, New Zealand. Not classified as Dangerous Goods for transport according to the New Zealand Standard NZS 433:2007 Transport of Dangerous Goods on Land. 3.

Ingredients determined not to be hazardous <0.001% 0-<1 % 0-<0. % Balance 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Inhalation Remove the source of contamination or move the affected person to fresh air. Ensure airways are clear. If symptoms develop and persist seek medical attention. Print Date: 17/09/2010

2 Page: 2 of Ingestion Skin Eye First Aid Facilities Advice to Doctor Do NOT induce vomiting. Immediately wash out mouth with water. If symptoms develop seek medical attention. Wash contaminated skin with plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before re-use. If irritation occurs seek medical advice. If in eyes, hold eyelids apart and flush the eyes continuously with running water. Continue flushing for several minutes until all contaminants are washed out completely. If symptoms develop and persist seek medical attention. Eye wash and normal washroom facilities. Treat symptomatically.. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media Hazards from Combustion Products Specific Hazards This mixture is not combustible, but will burn once all the water in the mixture has evaporated. In that event use appropriate fire extinguisher for surrounding environment. Under fire conditions this product may emit toxic and/or irritating gases and vapours. If the water of this mixture has evaporated, there is a high risk of crystalline silica. Keep residue damp. Precautions in Fire-fighters should wear full protective clothing and self contained connection with Fire breathing apparatus (SCBA). Water spray may be used to cool down heat-exposed containers. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Emergency Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing to minimise Procedures exposure. Extinguish or remove all sources of ignition and stop leak if safe to do so. Increase ventilation. If possible contain the spill. Place inert absorbent material onto spillage. Use clean non sparking tools to collect the material and place into a suitable labelled container. Do not dilute material but contain. Dispose of waste according to federal, Environmental Protection Authority and state regulations. If the spillage enters the waterways contact the Environmental Protection Authority, or your local Waste Management Authority. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling Conditions for Safe Storage Use only in a well ventilated area. Keep containers sealed when not in use. Prevent the build up of mists or vapours in the work atmosphere. Avoid inhalation of vapours and mists, and skin or eye contact. Do not use near ignition sources. Do not pressurise, cut, heat or weld containers as they may contain hazardous residues. Maintain high standards of personal hygiene ie. Washing hands prior to eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition, oxidising agents, strong acids, foodstuffs, and clothing. Keep containers closed when not in use and securely sealed and protected against physical damage. Inspect regularly for deficiencies such as damage or leaks. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION National Exposure Standards No exposure value assigned for this specific material by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission (NOHSC), Australia or the Occupational Safety and Health Service (OSH) of the New Zealand Department of Labour. However, the available exposure limits for ingredients are listed below: National Occupational Health And Safety Commission (NOHSC), Australia Exposure Standards: Substance STEL TWA NOTICES ppm mg/m³ ppm mg/m³ Dibutyl phthalate Print Date: 17/09/2010

3 Page: 3 of Sodium hydroxide New Zealand Occupational Safety and Health Service (OSH) Workplace Exposure Standards: STEL TWA NOTICES ppm mg/m³ ppm mg/m³ Dibutyl phthalate Sodium hydroxide No exposure standards have been established for this material by the National Occupational Health And Safety Commission (NOHSC). However, exposure standards for ingredients are stated above: As published by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission (NOHSC): TWA (Time Weighted Average): The average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over a normal eight-hour working day, for a five-day week. STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit): The average airborne concentration over a 1 minute period which should not be exceeded at any time during a normal eight-hour workday. Biological Limit No Biological limit available. Values Engineering Use with good general ventilation. If mists or vapours are produced local Controls exhaust ventilation should be used. Respiratory If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure Protection then respiratory protective equipment should be used suitable for protecting against airborne contaminants. Final choice of appropriate breathing protection is dependant upon actual airborne concentrations and the type of breathing protection required will vary according to individual circumstances. Expert advice may be required to make this decision. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 171, Selection, Use and maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices. Eye Protection Safety glasses with side shields, goggles or full-face shield as appropriate recommended. Final choice of appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances i.e. methods of handling or engineering controls and according to risk assessments undertaken. Eye protection should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications. Hand Protection Wear gloves of impervious material. Final choice of appropriate gloves will vary according to individual circumstances i.e. methods of handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Reference should be made to AS/NZS : Occupational protective gloves - Selection, use and maintenance. Body Protection Wear appropriate clothing including chemical resistant apron where clothing is likely to be contaminated. It is advisable that a local supplier of personal protective clothing is consulted regarding the choice of material. 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Thick, coloured paste.
