|
|
| 3.Hazards Identification: |
| Poison Poisonous; Could be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed
through skin. Contact could cause burns to skin and eyes. Runoff from
fire-control or dilution water could cause pollution. |
|
| 4.First Aid Measures: |
| First Aid Skin |
Immediately remove contaminated clothing, including shoes. Wash
affected area with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes. SPEED
IN REMOVING LIQUID FROM SKIN IS OF PRIME IMPORTANCE |
| First Aid Eyes |
Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open while washing. |
| First Aid Ingested |
Precautions: Avoid contact with the product. Avoid breathing in
of product or mist. Do not eat, drink or smoke during application.
Wash hands thoroughly after use. Symptoms of poisoning: Hyperexciteablity,
tremors or convulsions, with muscle weakness. First Aid: Remove person
from source of contamination and remove all contaminated clothing
(taking care not to contaminate the first aider). Wash thoroughly
with copious amounts of soap and water. Treatment: There is no specific
treatment, thus treatment is symptomatic and supportive. |
| First Aid Inhalation |
IMMEDIATELY remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial
respiration. If breathing of victim is difficult administer oxygen
for a maximum period of one hour. Have victim lie down and keep warm. |
|
| 5.Fire Fighting Measures: |
| SMALL FIRES: Dry chemical, CO2, Halon, water spray or standard foam.
LARGE FIRES: Water spray, fog or standard foam is recommended. Move
container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire
control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. Cool
containers that are exposed to flames with water from the side until
well after the fire is out. Stay away from ends of tanks. Withdraw
immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or
any discolouration of tank due to fire. Keep unnecessary people away;
isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas.
Positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and chemical
protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the shipper
or manufacturer may be worn. It will provide little or no thermal
protection. Structural firefighter's protective clothing is NOT effective
with these materials. IF TANK, RAIL CAR OR TANK TRUCK IS INVOLVED
IN FIRE, ISOLATE FOR 1 KILOMETRE IN ALL DIRECTIONS. |
|
| 6.Accidental Release Measures: |
|
| PRECAUTIONS: Restrict access to area. Provide adequate protective
equipment and ventilation. Remove sources of heat and flame. Notify
occupational and environmental authorities. SPILL OR LEAK: Shut off
ignition sources; no flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Do
not touch spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk.
Water spray may reduce vapor; but it may not prevent ignition in closed
spaces. Remove spilled material by absorbing onto absorbant material
(eg. swadust). Pack into sealable container. SMALL SPILLS: Takeup
with sand or other noncombustible absorbent material and place into
containers for later disposal. LARGE SPILLS: Dike far ahead of liquid
spill for later disposal. |
|
| 7.Handling and Storage: |
| Separation of at least 3M from the following classes is recommended.
Corrosives Fire separation of at least 5M or 4Hr fire resistant wall
from the following classes is recommended. Flammable Gases Flammable
Liquids Flammable Solids Spontaneously Combustibles Dangerous When
Wet Oxidizing Agents Storage in the same room or space is prohibited
with the following classes: The rooms or spaces should be at least
10M apart. Explosives Organic Peroxides Store away from food, feed
children and uninformed persons |

| Controls |
The control measures appropriate for a particular worksite depend
on how this material is used and on the extent of exposure. The best
protection is to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaust ventilation
at the site of chemical release. Use a non-sparking, grounded ventilation
system separate from other exhaust ventilation systems. Exhaust directly
to the outside. Supply sufficient replacement air to make up for air
removed. Have a safety shower/eye wash fountain readily available
in the immediate work area |
| Personal Protection |
If engineering controls and work practices are not effective in
controlling this material, then wear suitable personal protection
equipment, including chemical safety goggles & face shield, boots,
imperious gloves, coveralls, & respiratory protection. Have appropriate
equipment available for use in emergencies. |

| 13.Disposal Considerations: |
| Disposal Method Product |
There are no uniform EC regulations for the disposal of chemicals
or residues. Chemical residues generally count as special waste. The
disposal of the latter is regulated in the EC member countries through
corresponding laws and regulations. We recommend that you contact
the authorities in charge or approved waste disposal companies which
will advise you on how to dispose of special waste. Pack small quantities
into sealed containers, using appropriate personal protection, and
dispose in accordance with local requirements. |
| Disposal Method Packaging |
Disposal in accordance with local legal provisions. |
