Description of first aid measures Eye Contact Generally not applicable. Skin Contact Generally not applicable. Inhalation Generally not applicable. Ingestion Generally not applicable. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed See Section 11 4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treat symptomatically. SECTION 5 FIREFIGHTING MEASURES 5.1. Extinguishing media There is no restriction on the type of extinguisher which may be used. Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding area. 5.2. Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture Fire Incompatibility None known. 5.3. Advice for firefighters Fire Fighting Slight hazard when exposed to heat, flame and oxidisers. Articles and manufactured articles may constitute a fire hazard where polymers form their outer layers or where combustible packaging remains in place. Fire/Explosion Hazard Certain substances, found throughout their construction, may degrade or become volatile when heated to high temperatures. This may create a secondary hazard. SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures See section 8 6.2. Environmental precautions See section 12 6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up Clean up all spills immediately. Minor Spills Secure load if safe to do so. Bundle/collect recoverable product. Collect remaining material in containers with covers for disposal. Minor hazard. Clear area of personnel. Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear physical protective gloves e.g. Leather. Major Spills Contain spill/secure load if safe to do so. Bundle/collect recoverable product and label for recycling. Collect remaining product and place in appropriate containers for disposal. Clean up/sweep up area. Water may be required. 6.4. Reference to other sections Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the SDS. SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE 7.1. Precautions for safe handling Limit all unnecessary personal contact. Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs. Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with incompatible materials. When handling, DO NOT eat, drink or smoke. Keep containers securely sealed when not in use. Safe handling Avoid physical damage to containers. Always wash hands with soap and water after handling. Work clothes should be laundered separately. Use good occupational work practice. Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this SDS. Atmosphere should be regularly checked against established exposure standards to ensure safe working conditions are maintained. Fire and explosion protection See section 5 Other information Store away from incompatible materials. 7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Generally packaging as originally supplied with the article or manufactured item is sufficient to protect against physical hazards. Suitable container If repackaging is required ensure the article is intact and does not show signs of wear. As far as is practicably possible, reuse the original packaging or something providing a similar level of protection to both the article and the handler. Storage incompatibility Avoid contamination of water, foodstuffs, feed or seed. None known 7.3. Specific end use(s) See section 1.2 SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION 8.1.

Exposure controls Articles or manufactured items, in their original condition, generally don't require engineering controls during handling or in normal use. 8.2.1. Appropriate engineering Exceptions may arise following extensive use and subsequent wear, during recycling or disposal operations where substances, found in the article, may be controls released to the environment. 8.2.2. Personal protection Safety glasses. Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles. Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lenses or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent] No special equipment for minor exposure i.e. when handling small quantities. OTHERWISE: Safety glasses with side shields. Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing Eye and face protection of lenses or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task.

Information on toxicological effects Inhaled The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting. Ingestion The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as 'harmful by ingestion'. This is because of the lack of
