Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If a person feels unwell or symptoms of skin irritation
appear, consult a physician.
Symptoms:
See Section 11.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media:
Water spray (fog), foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Special firefighting procedures:
Wear self contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual fire or explosion hazards:
In case of fire, keep containers cool with water spray.
Hazardous combustion products:
Oxides of carbon. Oxides of silicon. Formaldehyde.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8, isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and
unprotected personnel.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow product to enter sewer or waterways.
Clean-up methods:
Scrape up as much material as possible. Spilled material will solidify. Store in
a partly filled, closed container until disposal. Maintain good ventilation for
large spills.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not handle contact lenses until
all sealant has been removed from hands. Residual sealant may transfer to

Engineering controls:
Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use local ventilation
if general ventilation is insufficient to maintain vapor concentration below
established exposure limits.
Respiratory protection:
Use NIOSH approved respirator if there is potential to exceed exposure
limit(s).
Eye/face protection:
Safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields. Full face protection should
be used if the potential for splashing or spraying of product exists.
Skin protection:
Chemical resistant, impermeable gloves.
