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

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

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
| Symptoms and signs include headache; dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and in extreme cases, loss of consciousness. 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. |
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
| Chemical pneumonia can occur if solvents are inhaled. Accidental ingestion may cause vomiting and abdominal pain. |
|
