Check for and remove any contact lenses. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. If irritation persists, get medical atention. Inhalation Remove victim to fresh air and kep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest ocurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel.

Evacuate surrounding areas. Kep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through spiled material. Avoid breathing vapor mist. or Provide a dequate ventilation. W ear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. ergency For em responders If specialised clothing is required to with the spilage, deal take note of any information in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. Se also the information in "For non -emergency personnel". Environm ental precautions Avoid dispersal of spil led material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental polution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). M ethods and m aterials for containm ent and cleaning up al Sm l spill Stop leak if without risk. M ove containers from spill area. Dilute with water and mop up if water -soluble. Alternatively, or if water - insoluble, absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Dispose via of a licens ed waste disposal contractor. Large spill Stop leak if without risk. M ove containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. W ash spilages into effluent an treatment plant or proceed as folows. Contain and colect spilage with non - combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, vermiculite earth, or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (se Section 13). Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the spiled product. Note: se Section 1 for emergency contact information and Section 13 waste disposal. for Section 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe ha ndling Protective m easures Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (se Section 8). Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Kep in the original container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain product re sidue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container. Advice on general ocupational hygiene Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. W orkers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Se also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures. Conditions for safe storage, including any incom patibilities Store in accordan ce with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and wel -ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (se Section 10) and food and drink. Kep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for us e. Containers that have ben opened must be carefuly resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store unlabeled in containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Control param eters Ocupational exposure lim its None. Apropriate enginering controls Good general ventilation should sufficient be to control worker exposure to airborne contaminants. Environm ental exposure controls Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or enginering modifications to the process equipment wil be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels. protection m Hygiene m easures W ash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the workin g period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentialy contaminated clothing. W contaminated ash clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Eye/face protection Safety ey ewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necesary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the folowing protection should be worn, unless the asessment indicates a higher degre of protection: chemical splash goggles. Skin protection Hand protection Chemical -resistant, impervious gloves complyin g with an approved standard should be worn at al times when handling chemical products if a risk asessment indicates this is necessary. Considering the parameters specified by the glove manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are stil retaining t heir protective properties. It should be noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different glove manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the protection time of the gloves cannot be a curately estimated. Body protection Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product. Other skin protection Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product. Respiratory protection Use a properly fitt ed, air -purifying or air -fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk assesment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the working safe limits of the selected respirator. Section 9.
