Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up All concentrations are in percent by weight unless ingredient is a gas. Gas concentrations are in percent by volume. Move to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist. Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash skin with soap and water. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Rinse mouth and drink plenty of water. Do not give milk or alcoholic beverages. Never give anything by mouth to a victim who is unconscious or is having convulsions. Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Get medical attention. Severe eye irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Skin irritation. May cause redness and pain. May cause an allergic skin reaction. Dermatitis. Rash. Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Keep victim under observation. Symptoms may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials. Not applicable. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed such as: Carbon oxides. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Control contaminated fire water to minimize release to the environment. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. The product is immiscible with water and will spread on the water surface. Prevent product from entering drains. Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. 937292 Version #: 01 Revision date: - Issue date: 24-March-2017 2 / 7
Environmental precautions 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Occupational exposure limits Biological limit values Appropriate engineering controls Avoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of all environmental releases. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Persons with a history of skin sensitisation problems or asthma, allergies or chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this product is used. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Avoid release to the environment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). No exposure limits noted for ingredient(s). No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Provide eyewash station. Eye wash fountain and emergency showers are recommended. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles). Eye/face protection Skin protection Hand protection Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Skin protection Other Respiratory protection Thermal hazards General hygiene considerations 9. Physical and chemical properties Appearance Odor Physical state Form Color Odor threshold ph Melting point/freezing point Initial boiling point and boiling range Flash point Evaporation rate Flammability (solid, gas) Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. Use of an impervious apron is recommended. If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator as needed to control exposure. Consult with respirator manufacturer to determine respirator selection, use, and limitations. Use positive pressure, air-supplied respirator for uncontrolled releases or when air purifying respirator limitations may be exceeded. Follow respirator protection program requirements (OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2) for all respirator use. Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Liquid. Liquid. Clear, straw yellow.
