The precautionary statements and warnings included may not apply in all cases. Your needs may vary depending upon the potential for exposure in your workplace. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eye Contact: Skin Contact: Ingestion: Inhalation: Flush with water while holding eyelids open for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately. Remove contaminated clothing. Flush area with large amounts of water. Use soap. Seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel. Seek medical attention immediately. Remove to fresh air and keep patient at rest. Seek medical attention immediately. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Extinguishing Media: Hazardous Combustion Products: Fire Fighting Procedures: Fire / Explosion Hazards: Use carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or water spray. Formation of toxic gases is possible during heating or fire. During all fire fighting activities, wear appropriate protective equipment, including selfcontained breathing apparatus. Not applicable 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Health and Safety Precautions: Measures for Cleaning / Collecting: Measures for Environmental Protections: Additional Consideration for Large Spills: Personnel involved in clean-up should wear appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Minimize exposure. Contain the source of spill if it is safe to do so. Collect spilled material by a method that controls dust generation. A damp cloth or a filtered vacuum should be used to clean spills of dry solids. Clean spill area thoroughly. Place waste in an appropriately labeled, sealed container for disposal. Care should be taken to avoid environmental release. Non-essential personnel should be evacuated from affected area. Report emergency situations immediately. Clean up operations should only be undertaken by trained personnel. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE General Handling: Storage Conditions: Storage Temperature: Use adequate ventilation.

EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION OSHA - Final PELS - TWAs: ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TWA) ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (STEL) ACGIH - Skin Absorption Designation Australia STEL Australia TWA = 0.03 mg/m 3 STEL Skin - potential significant contribution to overall exposure by the cutaneous route = 0.03 mg/m 3 STEL Engineering Controls: Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control exposures. Personal Protective Equipment: Hands: Eyes: Skin: Respiratory protection: Wear impervious gloves if skin contact is possible. Safety glasses or goggles Use protective clothing (uniforms, lab coats, disposable coveralls, etc.) in both production and laboratory areas. If the applicable Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) is exceeded, wear an appropriate respirator with a protection factor sufficient to control exposures to below the OEL. 9.
