Section
4: First Aid Measures
Eye
Contact: Check for and
remove any contact lenses. Do not use an eye ointment. Seek medical attention.
Skin
Contact: After contact
with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Gently and thoroughly wash the
contaminated skin with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly
careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin. Cover the irritated skin
with an emollient. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Wash
contaminated clothing before reusing.
Serious
Skin Contact: Wash with a
disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream.
Seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation:
Allow the victim to rest
in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.
Serious
Inhalation: Evacuate the
victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a
collar, tie, belt or waistband. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If
the victim is not breathing, perform
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Seek medical attention.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting.
Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues are damaged, a
possible indication that the toxic material was ingested; the absence of such
signs, however, is not conclusive. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie,
belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Seek immediate medical attention.
Serious
Ingestion: Not available.

Keep
away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment
containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe dust. Wear suitable
protective clothing In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment If ingested,
seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing
agents.
Storage:
Flammable materials should
be stored in a separate safety storage cabinet or room. Keep away from
heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep container tightly closed. Keep in
a cool, well-ventilated place. Ground all equipment
containing material. Keep container dry. Keep in a cool place.
Section
8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls:
Use
process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations
generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne
contaminants below the exposure limit.
Personal
Protection: Splash
goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified
respirator or equivalent. Gloves.
Personal
Protection in Case of a Large Spill:
Splash
goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing
apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested
protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE
handling this product.
