Ingestion: Rinse mouth immediately. Give large amounts of milk or water, if person is conscious.
Only induce vomiting at the instruction of medical personnel. Consult a physician.
Inhalation: Immediately remove from further exposure. Get immediate medical assistance. For
those providing assistance, avoid exposure to yourself or others. Use adequate respiratory
protection. Give supplemental oxygen, if available. If breathing has stopped, assist
ventilation with a mechanical device.
Most Important Symptoms
Irritant effects. Sensitization. Symptoms include itching, burning, redness and tearing. May cause damage to mucous
membranes in nose, throat, lungs and bronchial system. Cough. Labored breathing. Be aware that symptoms of lung edema
(shortness of breath) may develop up to 24 hours after exposure. Prolonged contact causes serious eye and tissue damage.
May cause serious chemical burns to the skin.
5. Fire-Fighting Measures
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Extinguish with foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder, or water fog.
Additional Information: Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
Hazards during Fire-Fighting: Hazardous decomposition products may occur when materials polymerize at
temperatures above 500 °F (260°C). Do not allow run-off from fire-fighting to enter
drains or water courses.
Fire-Fighting Procedures: Use standard fire-fighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved
materials. In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Self-contained breathing
apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn. Move containers from fire area if
you can do so without risk. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well
after fire is out. Prevent runoff from fire control or dilution from entering streams,
sewers, or drinking water supply.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal Precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area).
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
appropriate protective clothing. Avoid inhalation of vapors or mists. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be
advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Clean-Up Methods
Small spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Place in a leak-proof container. Seal
tightly for proper disposal. Clean surface thoroughly.
Large spills: Approach suspected leak areas with caution. Evacuate and ventilate the area. Stop the
flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Use a
non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product. Place in a
leak-proof container. Seal tightly for proper disposal. Following product recovery, flush
area with water. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas.
Environmental Precautions
Avoid release to the environment. Contact local authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquatic environment. Prevent further
leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling
Mechanical ventilation or local exhaust ventilation is recommended. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources
of ignition. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Avoid contact with
eyes, skin, and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Storage
Store in a closed container away from incompatible materials. Keep in original container. Keep container tightly closed. Store
in a dry place out of direct sunlight. Store between 45-90°F (7-32°C). Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Store in a
well-ventilated place. Store locked up. Keep out of the reach of children.
