Aspiration may cause pulmonary edema and pneumonitis. May cause drowsiness and dizziness.
Narcosis. Headache. Nausea, vomiting. Behavioral changes. Decrease in motor functions. Severe
eye irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Skin
irritation. May cause redness and pain. Edema. Prolonged exposure may cause chronic effects.
Most important
symptoms/effects, acute and
delayed
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Thermal burns: Flush with water
immediately. While flushing, remove clothes which do not adhere to affected area. Call an
ambulance. Continue flushing during transport to hospital. Keep victim warm. Keep victim under
observation. Symptoms may be delayed.
Indication of immediate
medical attention and special
treatment needed
Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical
advice/attention. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take
precautions to protect themselves. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse.
General information
5. Fire-fighting measures
Water fog. Alcohol resistant foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide,
sand or earth may be used for small fires only.
Suitable extinguishing media
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing
media
Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may rupture when exposed to heat or flame. This
product is a poor conductor of electricity and can become electrostatically charged. If sufficient
charge is accumulated, ignition of flammable mixtures can occur. Static electricity accumulation
may be significantly increased by the presence of small quantities of water or other contaminants.
Material will float and may ignite on surface of water. During fire, gases hazardous to health may
be formed.
Specific hazards arising from
the chemical
Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Special protective equipment
and precautions for firefighters
Fire-fighting
equipment/instructions
In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without
risk. Containers should be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure build up.
Extremely flammable aerosol. Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may rupture when
exposed to heat or flame.
General fire hazards
6. Accidental release measures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Remove all
possible sources of ignition in the surrounding area. Keep out of low areas. Many gases are
heavier than air and will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers,
basements, tanks). Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not
breathe mist or vapor. Emergency personnel need self-contained breathing equipment. Do not
touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing.
Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be
contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. This product is miscible in water.
Prevent product from entering drains. Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Wipe up with
absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Avoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of all
environmental releases. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into
drains, water courses or onto the ground. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination.
Environmental precautions
7. Handling and storage
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Minimize fire risks from flammable and combustible materials (including
combustible dust and static accumulating liquids) or dangerous reactions with incompatible
materials. Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button
is missing or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not
smoke while using or until sprayed surface is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind,
or expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. Use caution around
energized equipment. The metal container will conduct electricity if it contacts a live source. This
may result in injury to the user from electrical shock and/or flash fire. Do not breathe mist or vapor.
Do not taste or swallow. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure.
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Pregnant or breastfeeding women must not handle this
product. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash
hands thoroughly after handling. Avoid release to the environment. Observe good industrial
hygiene practices. For product usage instructions, please see the product label.
