4. First-aid Measures
FIRST AID - EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes holding eyelids open. Get medical
attention. Do NOT allow rubbing of eyes or keeping eyes closed.
FIRST AID - SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Get medical attention if irritation
develops or persists.
FIRST AID - INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get
immediate medical attention. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If you experience difficulty in breathing, leave the area to
obtain fresh air. If continued difficulty is experienced, get medical assistance immediately.
FIRST AID - INGESTION: Aspiration hazard: Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth because this material can enter the
lungs and cause severe lung damage. Get immediate medical attention. If swallowed, get medical attention.
5. Fire-fighting Measures
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Water Fog
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: FLASH POINT IS LESS THAN 20°F. EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND
VAPOR!Water spray may be ineffective. Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat due to buildup of steam.
Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors can travel to a
source of ignition and flash back. Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame.
Perforation of the pressurized container may cause bursting of the can. No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent pressure buildup and possible
autoignition or explosion. Full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Evacuate area and
fight fire from a safe distance. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may explode when heated.
6. Accidental Release Measures
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. DO NOT use
combustible materials such as sawdust. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected personnel.
Eliminate all ignition sources; use explosion-proof equipment. Place material in a container and dispose of according to local,
provincial, state and federal regulations. Remove all sources of ignition, ventilate area and remove with inert absorbent and non-
sparking tools. Dispose of according to local, state (provincial) and federal regulations. Do not incinerate closed containers.
Ventilate area, isolate spilled material, and remove with inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated absorbent, container, and unused
contents in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
7. Handling and Storage
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.
Use only with adequate ventilation. Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied because it may retain product
residues. Avoid breathing fumes, vapors, or mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
STORAGE: Store in a dry, well ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Keep containers tightly closed.
Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Do not store above 120 ° F. Store large quantities in buildings
designed and protected for storage of NFPA Class II combustible liquids. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and sources of
ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Avoid excess heat. Product should be stored in tightly sealed containers and
protected from heat, moisture, and foreign materials.
