SECTION 4: First aid measures

4.1 Description of first aid measures

General advice : Move out of dangerous area.
Consult a physician.
Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
Do not leave the victim unattended.

If inhaled : Consult a physician after significant exposure.

If unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical
advice.

In case of skin contact : If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

If on skin, rinse well with water.
If on clothes, remove clothes.

In case of eye contact : Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible
tissue damage and blindness.
In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty
of water and seek medical advice.
Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital.
Remove contact lenses.
Protect unharmed eye.
Keep eye wide open while rinsing.
If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

If swallowed : Keep respiratory tract clear.

Do NOT induce vomiting.
Do not give milk or alcoholic beverages.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Take victim immediately to hospital.

products Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Sulphur oxides

5.3 Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment : Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if
for firefighters necessary.

Further information : Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This

must not be discharged into drains.
Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must
be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
For safety reasons in case of fire, cans should be stored
separately in closed containments.
Use a water spray to cool fully closed containers.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions : Use personal protective equipment.
Remove all sources of ignition.
Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive
concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.

6.2 Environmental precautions

Environmental precautions : Prevent product from entering drains.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform
respective authorities.

6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up : Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible
absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth,
vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to
local / national regulations (see section 13).

For disposal considerations see section 13., For personal protection see section 8.

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

7.1 Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling : Avoid formation of aerosol.
Do not breathe vapours/dust.
Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
For personal protection see section 8.
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the
application area.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure.
To avoid spills during handling keep bottle on a metal tray.
Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national
regulations.

Advice on protection against : Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material.
fire and explosion Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge
(which might cause ignition of organic vapours). Keep away
from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.

Hygiene measures : When using do not eat or drink. When using do not smoke.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage : No smoking. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-
areas and containers ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Electrical installations / working materials must comply with
the technological safety standards.

Other data : No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
