There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the
concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the environment and hence require reporting
in this section.
Occupational exposure limits, if available, are listed in Section 8.For confidentiality reasons, the levels of
components listed in Section 3 are given in percentage bands. The bandings do not reflect potential variation in
composition of this formulation, but are used simply to mask the exact component levels, which we consider to
be proprietary information. The classification given in Section 2 and 15 reflects the exact composition of this
mixture.

Eye contact : Get medical attention immediately. Call a poison center or physician.
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the
upper and lower eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses.
Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Chemical burns must be
treated promptly by a physician.
Inhalation : Get medical attention immediately. Call a poison center or physician.
Remove person to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable
for breathing. If it is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer
should wear an appropriate mask or self-contained breathing
apparatus. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory
arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained
personnel. It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If unconscious, place in recovery
position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open
airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Skin contact : Get medical attention immediately. Call a poison center or physician.
Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly with
water before removing it, or wear gloves. Continue to rinse for at
least 10 minutes. Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a
physician. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly
before reuse.
Ingestion : Get medical attention immediately. Call a poison center or physician.
Wash out mouth with water. Remove dentures if any. Remove person
to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If
material has been swallowed and the exposed person is conscious,
give small quantities of water to drink. Stop if the exposed person
feels sick as vomiting may be dangerous. Do not induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the
head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs.
Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in
recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an

Suitable extinguishing media : Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing media : None known.
Special protective actions for : Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity
fire-fighters of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving
any personal risk or without suitable training.
Special protective equipment for : Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-
fire-fighters contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece
operated in positive pressure mode. Clothing for fire-fighters
(including helmets, protective boots and gloves) conforming to
European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for
chemical incidents.
Additional information : Not available.
For non-emergency personnel : No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and
unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through
spilled material. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate
respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put on appropriate personal
protective equipment.
For emergency responders : If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note
of any information in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials.
See also the information in "For non-emergency personnel".
6.2 Environmental precautions : Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil,
waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the
product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil
or air).
Small spill : Move containers from spill area. Avoid dust generation. Using a
vacuum with HEPA filter will reduce dust dispersal. Place spilled
material in a designated, labeled waste container. Dispose of via a
licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large spill : Move containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind.
Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined
areas. Avoid dust generation. Do not dry sweep. Vacuum dust with
equipment fitted with a HEPA filter and place in a closed, labeled
waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
6.4 Reference to other sections : See Section 1 for emergency contact information.
See Section 8 for information on appropriate personal protective
equipment.
See Section 13 for additional waste treatment information.
Protective measures : Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Do
not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not ingest. If during normal

ventilation or wear appropriate respirator. Keep in the original
container or an approved alternative made from a compatible
material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain
product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Advice on general occupational : Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where
hygiene this material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash
hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove
contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering
eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene
measures.
Appropriate engineering controls : If user operations generate dust, fumes, gas, vapor or mist, use

Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical
products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the
end of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to
remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated
clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
Eye/face protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be
used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid
exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. If contact is
possible, the following protection should be worn, unless the
assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: chemical splash
goggles and/or face shield. If inhalation hazards exist, a full-face
respirator may be required instead.
