FIRST AID MEASURES: Eye contact: Flush eyes promptly with clear water for at least 15 minutes. Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water .wash clothing with detergent before reuse. Get medical attention Ingestion: Induce vomiting if victim is in conscious by giving salt water. Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. Provide artificial respiration, if necessary, Get medical attention immediately. Antidote: To control convulsions phnobarbital may be given under medical supervision. Treat symptomatically and supportively. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES: Auto-ignition temperature: Not applicable Thermal decomposition: Will ignite if exposed to intense heat or open flame and may cause violent rapture of package. Fire Fighting media: Dry Chemical, carbon dioxide, halon, water spray or standard foam. Extinguishing Procedure: Wear breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Evacuate people to safe area. Move the containers from fire area, if possible .Fight fire from maximum distance. Stay away from storage area. Dike fire control water for later disposal. Keep cool the containers by spraying water. Avoid breathing toxic vapours. 2 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES: Soil Spill: Dike the area absorbs on sand or other absorbent and place in closed container for proper disposal Water Spill: Absorb the material by activated carbon using suction hoses to remove trapped materials. Occupational Spill: Do not touch spilled material. Stop leak if possible. Absorb on sand or other absorbent and put in clean container For disposal HANDLING AND STORAGE: Handling Procedures: Do not drop the container. Keep tightly closed; avoid breathing of vapours and bodily contact Storing Procedures: Store in a dry cool well ventilated area away from food stuff and animal feed. 8.

Environmental Fate: EHC 142 notes that although highly toxic to fish This is not realized under field conditions where rapid loss from water allows recovery of affected population. Soil: undergoes degradation in soil, DT50c.13w in loamy soil. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS: After intended use: Triple rinse containers before disposal and add rinsing to the tank mix or dispose of in a disposal pit away from waterways. Destroy empty containers by breaking, crushing or puncturing them. Bury containers at a depth of 50 cm or more at a safe disposal site, or take them to a dump that does not burn its refuse. Do not burn empty containers or product. After spill or accident: Disposal of sealed containers, empty container. Waste product, at an approved local waste disposal site.
