SECTION IV: First Aid Measures
1. Description of necessary first aid measures:
a. First-aid measures general : If you feel unwell, seek medical advice.
b. First-aid measures after inhalation : Remove the victim into fresh air.
Respiratory problems: consult a doctor/medical service.
c. First-aid measures after skin contact : Rinse with water. Soap may be
used. Do not apply (chemical) neutralizing agents. Take victim to a doctor if
irritation persists.
d. First-aid measures after eye contact : Rinse with water. Remove contact
lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Do not apply neutralizing
agents.
e. First-aid measures after ingestion : Rinse mouth with water. Immediately
after ingestion: give lots of water to drink. Call Poison Information Centre
(www.big.be/antigif.html). Consult a doctor/medical service if you feel unwell.
Ingestion of large quantities: immediately to hospital.
2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:
a. None known.
3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:
Treat symptomatically
SECTION V: Fire Fighting Measures
1. Extinguishing Media:
a. Suitable extinguishing media : Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder or
3. appropriate foam.
b. Unsuitable extinguishing media : Do not use a solid (straight) water stream
as it may scatter and spread fire.
2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Does not burn. Heating increases the release of toxic vapor. Closed containers may
rupture violently when heated releasing contents.
In a fire, the following hazardous materials may be generated: very toxic carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide.
3. Advice for firefighters:
Fight fire from a safe distance or a protected location. Approach fire from upwind to
avoid hazardous vapors or gasses. Knock down vapors or gasses with water fog or
fine water spray. For a massive fire, immediately evacuate the area and use
unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles. Dike and recover contaminated water for
appropriate disposal. Fire-fighters may enter the area if positive pressure SCBA and
full Bunker Gear is worn.
SECTION VI: Accidental Release Measures
1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
No special precautions are necessary. Use the personal protective equipment
recommended in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Increase ventilation to area or
move leaking container to a well-ventilated and secure area.
2. Environmental precautions:
Do not allow into any sewer, on the ground or into any waterway
3. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Contain and soak up spill with absorbent that does not react with spilled product.
Place used absorbent into suitable, covered, labeled containers for disposal.
4. Reference to other sections:
Section 8
SECTION VII: Handling and Storage
1. Precautions for safe handling:
a. Precautions for safe handling : No special handling precautions are
necessary. Prevent accidental contact with incompatible chemicals. It is good
practice to: avoid breathing product; avoid skin and eye contact and wash
hands after handling.
b. Hygiene measures : Observe normal hygiene standards.
4. 2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
