DANGEROUS GOODS. Not classified as hazardous according to the criteria of NOHSC. Dangerous goods classification according to the Australia Dangerous Goods Code. Standard for the Uniform Scheduling of Medicines and Poisons : No poison schedule number allocated 3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Hazardous components Chemical Name CAS-No. Concentration Norflurane >= 50 - < 55% 4. FIRST AID MEASURES General advice : If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible). May cause frostbite. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. 1 / 11

2 Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. If inhaled In case of skin contact In case of eye contact If swallowed : If breathed in, move person into fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. Call a physician immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Causes asphyxiation in high concentrations. The victim will not realize that he/she is suffocating. : Wash frost-bitten areas with plenty of water. Do not remove clothing. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. : If easy to do, remove contact lens, if worn. In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. : If a person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the recovery position. Do NOT induce vomiting. If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES Suitable extinguishing media Unsuitable extinguishing media Specific hazards during firefighting Special protective equipment for firefighters Further information : Water mist Carbon dioxide (CO2) Dry chemical : High volume water jet : Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire. Hazardous decomposition products may be formed under fire conditions (see section 10). Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health. : In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment. : Standard procedure for chemical fires. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local cir- 2 / 11

3 cumstances and the surrounding environment. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. If the temperature rises there is danger of the vessels bursting due to the high vapor pressure. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions : Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Environmental precautions Methods for cleaning up : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities. : Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling Advice on safe handling Advice on protection against fire and explosion Dust explosion class : Limit the stocks at work place. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material. For personal protection see section 8. : Normal measures for preventive fire protection. : not applicable Storage Requirements for storage areas and containers : BEWARE: Aerosol is pressurized. Keep away from direct sun exposure and temperatures over 50 C. Do not open by force or throw into fire even after use. Do not spray on flames or 3 / 11

4 red-hot objects. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and wellventilated place. Please observe the storage instructions for aerosols! Further information on storage conditions Advice on common storage : AS/NZS 3833 The storage and handling of mixed classes of Dangerous Goods in packages and intermediate bulk containers. : Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Incompatible with oxidizing agents. Storage temperature : < 50 C Materials to avoid Other data : Strong oxidizing agents : No decomposition if stored and applied as directed. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Components with workplace control parameters Components CAS-No. Value Control parameters Norflurane TWA 1,000 ppm 4,240 mg/m3 Update Basis AU OEL Adopted National Exposure Standards for Atmospheric Contaminants in the Occupational Environment [NOHSC:1003], as amended through August 2005 Biological occupational exposure limits no biological limit allocated Engineering measures Provide adequate ventilation. Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection : In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Product contains low-boiling liquids. Respiratory protective equipment must be air supplied respirators. 4 / 11

5 Hand protection : PVC : Nitrile rubber : Choose gloves to protect hands against chemicals depending on the concentration and quantity of the hazardous substance and specific to place of work. For special applications, we recommend clarifying the resistance to chemicals of the aforementioned protective gloves with the glove manufacturer. Eye protection Skin and body protection Hygiene measures : In case of splash hazard, please wear protective goggles. : Choose body protection according to the amount and concentration of the dangerous substance at the work place. : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. General industrial hygiene practice. Do not inhale aerosol. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. 9.
