Description of first aid measures General notes In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately. Show this SDS or product label to the doctor. Following inhalation Unlikely exposure route. If spray or mist has been inhaled, remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Keep warm and at rest. If symptoms persist, obtain medical attention. Following skin contact Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash skin with plenty of soap and water. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists after washing. Following eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Remove contact lenes, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Obtain medical attention if irritation persist after washing. Following ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting. Obtain medical attention immediately. Do not give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Do not give anything by mouth because of risk of material entering the lungs and causing lung damage. If person is drowsy or unconscious and vomiting, place on left side with head down. If possible, do not leave unattended and observe closely for adequacy of breathing. Self-protection of the first aider No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. 4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed If swallowed, aspiration into the lungs following ingestion or vomiting may cause chemical pneumonia. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness and cracking. Spray/mist may cause respiratory tract irritation. 4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treat symptomatically. In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately. If swallowed, patient should be monitored for signs of breathing difficulty as effects of aspiration may be delayed for up to 48 hours. If breathing is laboured, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. SECTION 5: Firefighting measures 5.1. Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media Water spray, foam, dry powder, or carbon dioxide. Unsuitable extinguishing media Do NOT use water jet. 5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Combustible liquid. Flash point > 61 °C. The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of heat. Cool containers / tanks with water spray. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Hazardous combustion products Incomplete combustion is likely to give rise to a complex mixture of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases, including carbon monoxide and unidentified organic and inorganic compounds. 5.3. Advice for firefighters Self-contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing should be worn in fire conditions. Move undamaged containers from fire area if this can be done safely. Keep fire exposed containers cool by spraying with water. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling purposes. Do not allow product or run-off to enter drains, sewers or watercourses. SECTION 6: Accidental release measures 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures For non-emergency personnel Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Caution – spillage area may be slippery. Keep people and animals away from the spill area. Avoid breathing vapour, mist or spray. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. For emergency responders Keep unnecessary personnel away. Wear suitable protective clothing (See Section 8). Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. 6.2. Environmental precautions Avoid release to the environment. Stop leak if safe to do so. Absorb or contain any spilled liquid with an absorbent and dispose of according to regulations. Risk of soil and ground water contamination. Do not allow spillage or run off to enter drains, sewers, or watercourses. Spillages or uncontrolled discharges into watercourses must be alerted to the Environment Agency or other appropriate regulatory body. If spill occurs on water notify the appropriate authorities and advise shipping of any hazard (as appropriate). 6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up For containment Stop the leak if it is safe to do so. Contain the spillage with sand, earth or any suitable absorbent material. For cleaning up Use sand, earth, or any suitable non-combustible absorbent material on spillages. Using non-sparking tools transfer the contaminated absorbent material into a container for disposal. For spillages on water, remove use appropriate methods such as skimming, booms or adsorbents. For spillages onto soil, remove contaminated soil for remediation or disposal in accordance with local regulations. Waste containers used should be plastic-lined sealable drums. Containers should be sealed before being disposed of via an authorised waste disposal contractor. 6.4. Reference to other sections See Section 8 for personal protective equipment. See Section 13 for waste disposal. SECTION 7: Handling and storage 7.1. Precautions for safe handling Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only non-sparkling tools. Use explosion-proof electrical, ventilating and lighting equipment. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Avoid breathing vapours/mist/spray. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear suitable personal protective equipment and/or local exhaust ventilation when needed. (See Section 8) Do not eat, drink or smoke in the vicinity of the product. Wash hands and other contaminated areas of the body thoroughly after handling. Product Transfer Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Ensure electrical continuity by bonding all equipment. Avoid splash filling. Wait 2 minutes after tank filling (for tanks such as those on road tanker vehicles) before opening hatches or manholes. Wait 30 minutes after tank filling (for large storage tanks) before opening hatches or manholes. Contamination resulting from product transfer may give rise to light hydrocarbon vapour in the headspace of tanks that have previously contained gasoline. This vapour may explode if there is a source of ignition. Partly filled containers present a greater hazard than those that are full, therefore handling, transfer and sampling activities need special care. Tank cleaning Cleaning, inspection and maintenance of storage tanks is a specialist operation that requires the implementation of strict procedures and precautions. These include issue of work permits, gas-freeing of tanks, using a manned safety harness, lifelines and wearing air-supplied breathing apparatus. Prior to entry and while cleaning is underway, the atmosphere within the tank must be monitored using a gas monitor or oxygen meter and explosimeter. Additional precautions are required where the tank may have previously contained petroleum spirit. 7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Flammable liquid storage. Store in accordance with local regulations. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Keep away from direct sunlight. Store locked up. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Keep cool. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Keep away from oxidising agents and reducing agents. This product must never be stored in buildings occupied by people. Drums and small containers should be stored in well-ventilated areas, flameproof cabinets or stores. Keep in a bunded area with a sealed floor to provide containment against spillage. Stack drums to a height not exceeding three metres without the use of racking. Seek specialist advice for the design, construction and operation of bulk storage facilities. Recommended Storage Container materials For containers or container linings use mild steel or stainless steel, aluminium may also be used for applications where it does not present an unnecessary fire hazard. Examples of suitable materials are: high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), and Viton (FKM) which have specifically tested for compatibility with the product. For container linings, use amine-adduct cured epoxy paint. For seals and gaskets use: graphite, PTFE, Viton A, Viton B. Unsuitable Storage Container materials Synthetic materials such as plastics and fiberglass may be unsuitable for containers or container linings depending on the material specification and intended use. Examples of materials to avoid are: natural rubber (NR), nitrile rubber (NBR), ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyisobutylene. However, some may be suitable for glove materials. 7.3. Specific end use(s) Distribution of substance (ES04). Use as a fuel (ES 06, 14, 23). Formulation & (re)packing of substances and mixtures (ES 02). Use as an intermediate (ES 05). Refer to supplemental exposure scenarios attached. SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1.
