Page 2 SECTION IV Inhalation: Skin contact: Eye contact: Ingestion: First Aid Measures Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Keep person warm and at rest. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Get medical attention immediately. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash affected area with soap or mild detergent and large amounts ofwater until no evidence of chemical remains (at least 15-20 minutes). In case of burns, cover area with sterile, dry dressing. Bandage securely, but not too tightly. Get medical attention immediately. Wash eyes immediatelywith large amounts ofwater or normal saline solution, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids until no evidence of chemical remains (approximately 15-20 minutes). Get medical attention immediately. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Get medical attention immediately. If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent aspiration. NOTE TO PHYSICIANS: Antidote - no specific antidote. Treat symptomatically and supportively. SECTION V Fire Fighting Measures Fire and Explosion Hazard: Negligible fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or regular foam. For larger fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam. Firefighting: Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Apply cooling water to sides of containers that are exposed to flames until well after fire is out. Stay away from ends oftanks. Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. Cool containers with flooding amounts of water from as far a distance as possible. Avoid breathing corrosive vapors; keep upwind. SECTION VI Accidental Release Measures Occupational spill: Do not touch spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. For small spills, take up with sand or other absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal. Keep unnecessary people away. Isolate hazard area and deny entry.
Page 3 Soil spill: Dig holding area such as lagoon, pond or pit for containment. Dike flow of spilled material using soil or sandbags or foamed barriers such as polyurethane or concrete. Use cement powder or fly ash to absorb liquid mass. Neutralize spill with slaked lime, sodium bicarbonate or crushed limestone. Water spill: Neutralize with agricultural lime, slaked lime, crushed limestone, or sodium bicarbonate. Use mechanical dredges or lifts to extract immobilized masses of pollution and precipitates. Add suitable agent to neutralize spilled material to ph-7. SECTION VII Handling and Storage Observe all federal, state and local regulations when storing this substance. Store in a tightly closed container. Store away from incompatible substances. SECTION VIII Exposure Controls, Personal Protection No occupational exposure limits established by OSHA/ACGIH/NIOSH. Ventilation: Provide local exhaust ventilation system. Eye Protection: Employee must wear safety glasses with splash shields or safety goggles to prevent contact with this substance. Emergency Wash Facilities: Where there is any possibility that an employee's eyes and/or skin may be exposed to this substance, the employer should provide an eye wash fountain and quick drench shower within the immediate work area for emergency use.
