INGREDIENT COMMENTS
| Substances presenting a health hazard within the meaning of the current issue of the CHIP Regulations or assigned occupational exposure limits. |
|
| Flammable. For potential danger for the environment, see section 12. |
|
GENERAL
| Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention. |
INHALATION
| Seek medical advice. If unconscious place in the recovery position. If breathing has stopped, administer artificial respiration. Remove to fresh air, keep the patient warm and at rest. |
SKIN CONTACT
| Do NOT use solvents or thinners. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use an appropriate skin cleaner. Remove contaminated clothing. |
EYE CONTACT
| Seek medical advice if symptoms persist. Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 10 minutes. Hold the eyelids apart. Contact lenses should be removed. |
INGESTION
| Seek medical advice. Keep at rest. If accidentally swallowed obtain immediate medical attention. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. |
MEDICAL INFORMATION
| Professional evaluation of the work area. General health examination. Danger of lung damage. Risk of chemical pneumonia by aspiration. |
|
PROPER FIREFIGHTING EQUIPMENT
| Not to be used: water jet. Recommended: alcohol resistant foam, CO2, powders, water spray. |
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
| Fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous products of combustion (see Section 10). Decomposition products may be a hazard to health. Appropriate self-contained breathing apparatus may be required. |
PERSONAL PROTECTION WHEN FIREFIGHTING
| The personal protective equipment required is provided in section 8. Professional fire-fighters are required to use an air-fed system when dealing with major fires. |
|
OTHER INFORMATION
| Exclude sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Avoid breathing vapours. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. Place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13). Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent materials, e. g. sand, earth, vermiculite and diatomaceous earth. Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses. Clean preferably with a detergent; avoid use of solvents. If the product enters drains or sewers, the local water company should be contacted immediately; in the case of contamination of streams, rivers or lakes, the Environmental Agency. |
HANDLING ADVICE
| The Manual Handling Operations Regulations may apply to the handling of containers of this product. Electrical equipment should be protected to appropriate standards. Never use pressure to empty: the container is not a pressure vessel. Always keep in containers made of the same material as the supply container. For personal protection see Section 8. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in areas of storage and use. Avoid inhalation of vapour and spray mist. Avoid skin and eye contact. Non-sparking tools should be used. Exclude sources of heat, sparks and open flame. Keep container tightly closed. Floors should be electrically conductive. Operators should wear anti-static footwear and clothing. Use earthing leads when transferring from one container to another. The product may charge electrostatically. Electrical equipment should be protected to the appropriate standard. Additionally, the product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other sources of ignition have been excluded. Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapour in air and avoid vapour concentration higher than the occupational exposure limits. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. |
STORAGE
| Containers which are opened should be properly resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. No smoking. Store separately from oxidising agents and strongly alkaline and strongly acidic materials. Store in a dry, cold and well ventilated place away from sources of heat, ignition and direct sunlight. Observe the label precautions. |

EXPOSURE CONTROL
| Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. Spray mist contains contains all substances of the product and must not be inhaled. OELs (Occupational Exposure Limits) are taken from the current version of EH40 (by Health & Safety Executive, UK). |
RESP. PROTECTION
| By other operations than spraying: In well-ventilated areas, air-fed respirators could be replaced by a combination of charcoal filter and particulate filter mask. Air-fed respiratory protective should be worn when this product is sprayed. |
EYE PROTECTION
| Eye protection designed to protect against liquid splashes should be worn. |
HAND PROTECTION
| Use PVA/viton gloves. Barrier creams may help to protect exposed areas of the skin but are not substitutes for full physical protection. Barrier creams should not be applied once exposure has occurred. |
SKIN PROTECTION
| Cotton or cotton/synthetic overalls or coveralls are normally suitable. Grossly contaminated clothing should be removed. When spraying use suit covering the whole body. |

STABILITY
| Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions (see section 7). |
MATERIALS TO AVOID
| Keep away from oxidising agents, strongly alkaline and strongly acidic materials to prevent the exothermic reactions. |
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
| In a fire , hazardous decomposition products such as smoke, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxides of nitrogen may be produced. |
|
GENERAL
| There is no toxicological data available on the product itself. |
INHALATION
| Exposure to organic solvent vapours may result in adverse health effects such as irritation of the mucous membrane and the respiratory system and adverse effects on the renal and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache; dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and in extreme cases, loss of consciousness. |
SKIN CONTACT
| Repeated or prolonged contact with the product may lead to removal of natural fats from the skin resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption through the skin. |
EYE CONTACT
| Splashes in the eyes may cause irritation and reversible damage. |
INGESTION
| Risk of chemical pneumonia by aspiration. |
|
OTHER INFORMATION
