COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Hazardous ingredients 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention if symptoms appear. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical attention if symptoms appear. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention. Ingestion Inhalation Skin contact Eye contact : : : : 5. Highly flammable liquid. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a subsequent explosion. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Decomposition products may include the following materials: carbon oxides Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode. Use dry chemical, CO2, water spray (fog) or foam. : Hazardous thermal decomposition products Protection of fire-fighters Special fire-fighting procedures Extinguishing media : : : Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Unusual fire/explosion hazards : ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 6. Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8). : : Personal precautions Environmental precautions ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Continued on next page 16-8630 Canada ENGLISH. Version: 7.02 Page: 3/5 Methods for cleaning up : Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Wash spillages into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13). Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the spilled product. Note: see section 1 for emergency contact information and section 13 for waste disposal. Use original container. : : : 7. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flame or any other ignition source. Use only with adequate ventilation. Use non-sparking tools. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and equipment before transferring material. Do not reuse container. Use suitable protective equipment (section 8). Refer to and follow equipment manual for operation and maintenance procedures.
