Get medical attention if respiratory irritation develops or if breathing becomes difficult. Ingestion Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs. Skin contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur. Eye contact Promptly wash eyes with lots of water while lifting eye lids. Remove contact lenses. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects. both acute and delayed General advice The severity of the symptoms described will vary dependant of the concentration and the length of exposure. If adverse symptoms develop, the casualty should be transferred to hospital as soon as possible. Main symptoms Inhalation Please see Section 11. Toxicological Information for further information.

Special Fire-Fighting Procedures Containers close to fire should be removed immediately or cooled with water. 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Use personal protective equipment. See also section 8. 6.2 Environmental precautions The product should not be allowed to enter drains, water courses or the soil. Environmental exposure controls Avoid release to the environment. 6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Methods for containment Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Methods for cleaning up Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal. After cleaning, flush away traces with water. 6.4 Reference to other sections See section 13 for more information. 7. Handling and storage 7.1 Precautions for safe handling Handling Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid dust formation. 7.2 Conditions for safe storage. including any incompatibilities Technical measures/precautions Ensure adequate ventilation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits. Storage precautions Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. 8.1 Control parameters Exposure limits Control as an ACGIH particulate not otherwise specified (PNOS): 10 mg/m3 (lnhalable); 3 mg/m3 (Respirable) and an OSHA particulate not otherwise regulated (PNOR): 15 mg/m3 (Total); 5 mg/m3 (Respirable). Com onent ACGIH TLV OSHA PEL Polyacrylate polyacrylamide blend Not Determined 8.2 Exposure controls All chemical Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should be selected based on an assessment of both the chemical hazard present and the risk of exposure to those hazards. The PPE recommendations below are based on an assessment of the chemical hazards associated with this product. Where this product is used in a mixture with other products or fluids, additional hazards may be created and as such further assessment of risk may be required. The risk of exposure and need of respiratory protection will vary from workplace to workplace and should be assessed by the user in each situation. Engineering measures to reduce exposure Ensure adequate ventilation. Personal protective equipment Eye protection Tightly fitting safety goggles. Hand protection Wear chemical resistant gloves such as nitrile or neoprene. Respiratory protection All respiratory protection equipment should be used within a comprehensive respiratory protection program that meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.134 (U.S. OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard) or local equivalent. Use NIOSH approved respirator with dust and mist protection (3M 8210). If dust concentration exceeds 5 times the exposure limit, wear an approved HEPA respirator Skin and body protection Wear suitable protective clothing. Hygiene measures Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product, Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. · 9.
