FIRST AID MEASURES General advice If inhaled In case of skin contact In case of eye contact If swallowed : If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible). First aider needs to protect himself. Move out of dangerous area. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. : If breathed in, move person into fresh air. In the case of inhalation of aerosol/mist consult a physician if necessary. Keep patient warm and at rest. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. : In case of contact, immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of water. Do NOT use solvents or thinners. 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 swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. 2 / 14
If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. If a person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the recovery position. 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES Suitable extinguishing media Specific hazards during firefighting Special protective equipment for firefighters : Carbon dioxide (CO2) Dry powder Water spray jet : Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire. 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 circumstances and the surrounding environment. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. 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 Environmental precautions : Use personal protective equipment. Remove all sources of ignition. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Contaminated surfaces will be extremely slippery. Immediately evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas. : Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. 3 / 14
If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities. Avoid release to the environment. Refer to special instructions/ Safety data sheets. Methods for cleaning up : Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations. 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. Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapour in air and avoid vapour concentration higher than the occupational exposure limits. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination. Do not carry cloths that have come into contact with the product in your clothing. : Normal measures for preventive fire protection. Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Do not smoke. No sparking tools should be used. Electrical equipment should be protected to the appropriate standard. : not applicable Storage Requirements for storage areas and containers : BEWARE: Aerosol is pressurized. Keep away from heat. Keep away from direct sunlight. Do not open by force or throw into fire even after use. Do not spray on flames or red-hot objects. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well- 4 / 14
ventilated place. Please observe the storage instructions for aerosols! on storage conditions Advice on common storage Advice on common storage Materials to avoid Other data : AS/NZS 3833 The storage and handling of mixed classes of Dangerous Goods in packages and intermediate bulk containers. : Incompatible with oxidizing agents. : Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Do not store together with oxidizing and self-igniting products. : Oxidizing agents : No decomposition if stored and applied as directed. 8.
