4. FIRST AID MEASURES
FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Move victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration ONLY if breathing has stopped. Give cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) if there is no breathing AND no pulse. Oxygen administration may be beneficial in
this situation but should only be administered by personnel trained in its use. Obtain medical attention
IMMEDIATELY.
Inhalation:
Prompt removal of the material from the skin is essential. Remove all contaminated clothing and
immediately wash the exposed areas with copious amounts of soap and water for a minimum of 30
minutes or up to 60 minutes for critical body areas. Immerse the exposed part immediately in ice water
to relieve pain and to prevent swelling and blistering. Place cold packs, ice or wet cloths on the burned
area if immersion is not possible. Cover the exposed part with a clean, preferably sterile, lint-free
dressing. Obtain medical attention IMMEDIATELY and monitor breathing and treat for shock for severe
exposure. See "Note to Physicians" below.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with running water for a minimum of 30 minutes, preferably up to 60 minutes.
Hold eyelids open during flushing. If irritation persists, repeat flushing. Do not transport victim until the
recommended flushing period is completed unless flushing can be continued during transport.
Eye Contact:
Do not attempt to give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If victim is alert and not convulsing,
rinse mouth out and give 1/2 to 1 glass of water to dilute material. IMMEDIATELY contact local Poison
Control Centre. Vomiting should only be induced under the direction of a physician or a poison control
centre. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, have victim lean forward with head down to avoid breathing in of
vomitus, rinse mouth and administer more water. IMMEDIATELY transport victim to an emergency
facility. DO NOT give acidic agents (e.g., citrus juices or vinegar) to "neutralize" the alkali. This action
may cause an exothermic reaction and burn the esophagus.
Ingestion:
Corrosive! Burns (chemical) can occur if not promptly removed. Concentrated solutions may cause pain
and deep and severe burns to the skin. Prolonged and repeated exposure to dilute solutions often
causes irritation, redness, pain and drying and cracking of the skin. May cause defatting, drying and
cracking of the skin. Prolonged and repeated contact may lead to dermatitis.
Skin Contact:
May be absorbed through intact skin.
Skin Absorption:
Extremely corrosive! This product causes corneal scarring and clouding. Glaucoma, cataracts and
permanent blindness may occur.
Eye Contact:
Corrosive! This product causes severe burning and pain in the mouth, throat and abdomen. Vomiting,
diarrhea and perforation of the esophagus and stomach lining may occur. Swallowing this material
causes severe burns to the mouth, throat and stomach, death may result. Severe scarring of the throat
may occur. (3)
Ingestion:
Corrosive effects on the skin and eyes may be delayed, and damage may occur without the sensation or
onset of pain. Strict adherence to first aid measures following any exposure is essential.
May cause chemical pneumonitis, pulmonary oedema, hematuria, hyperglycemia, glycosuria, visual
disturbances, blindness, photophobia, liver damage, central nervous system (CNS) depression,
headache, dizziness, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, metabolic acidosis, endocrine effects, systemic
poisoning and death. Pulmonary oedema is the build-up of fluid in the lungs that might be fatal.
Symptoms of pulmonary oedema, such as shortness of breath, may not appear until several hours after
exposure and are aggravated by physical exertion. (4) Hematuria is defined as any condition in which the
urine contains blood or red blood cells. () Hyperglycemia is defined as abnormally high concentration of
glucose in the circulating blood. Glycosuria is defined as the urinary excretion of carbohydrates. This
usually develops after the ingestion of a moderate amount of sugar or starch, which is normally disposed
of without apperaring in the urine, because renal absorption exceeds the capacity of the liver and other
tissues to remove the glucose, thus allowing for blood glucose levels to become high enough for renal
excretion to occur. (8) Mild blurring of vision to complete blindness may occur, including changes in
colour perception and photophobia. Symptoms usually develop 12-18 hours after exposure. Abnormal
sensitivity to light is termed photophobia.
CNS depression is characterized by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting and
incoordination. Severe overexposures may lead to coma and possible death due to respiratory failure.
Liver damage is characterized by the loss of appetite, jaundice (yellowish skin colour), and occasional
pain in the upper left-hand side of the abdomen. Signs and symptoms of kidney damage generally
progress from oliguria, to blood in the urine, to total renal failure. Metabolic acidosis is a condition that
describes a decreased pH and bicarbonate concentration in the body fluids.
Sodium Hydroxide: Regardless of concentrations, the severity of damage and extent of its irreversibility
increases with length of contact time. Prolonged contact with even dilute Sodium Hydroxide solution can
cause a high degree of tissue destruction. The latent period, following skin contact during which no
sensation of irritation occurs, varies from several hours for 0.4-4% solution to 3 minutes with 25-50%
solution. (3) Sodium salts have a hypothetical risk of hypernatremia.

Due to the severely irritating or corrosive nature of the material, swallowing may lead to ulceration and
inflammation of the upper alimentary tract with hemorrhage and fluid loss. Also, perforation of the
esophagus or stomach may occur, leading to mediastinitis or peritonitis and the resultant complications.
(3)
Mucosal injury following ingestion of this corrosive material may contraindicate the induction of vomiting
in the treatment of possible intoxication. Similarly, if gastric lavage is performed, intubation should be
done with great care. If oral burns are present or a corrosive ingestion is suspected by the patient's
history, perform esophagoscopy as soon as possible. Scope should not be passed beyond the first burn
because of the risk of perforation.
This product contains materials that may cause severe pneumonitis if aspirated. If ingestion has
occurred less than 2 hours earlier, carry out careful gastric lavage; use endotracheal cuff if available, to
prevent aspiration. Observe patient for respiratory difficulty from aspiration pneumonitis. Give artificial
resuscitation and appropriate chemotherapy if respiration is depressed.
Treatment for corrosive chemical contact with skin after initial flushing procedures:
1. Immerse the exposed part immediately in ice water to relieve pain and to prevent swelling and
blistering. Place cold packs, ice or wet cloths on the burned area if immersion is not possible.
2. Remove anything that is constrictive, such as rings, bracelets or footwear, before swelling begins.
3. Cover the exposed part with a clean, preferably sterile, lint-free dressing.
4. For severe exposure, immediately seek medical attention and monitor breathing and treat for shock.
When plasma methanol concentrations are higher than 20 mg/dL, when ingested doses are greater than
30 mL, and when there is evidence of acidosis or visual abnormalities, a 10% solution of ethanol in 5%
aqueous dextrose, administered intravenously, is a safe, effective antidote. (3)
Sodium salts have a hypothetical risk of hypernatremia. In addition to calcium levels, sodium and
phosphate levels should be monitored.
Medical conditions that may be aggravated by exposure to this product include neurological and
cardiovascular disorders, diseases of the skin, eyes or respiratory tract, preexisting liver and kidney
disorders.

Information in this section is for responding to spills, leaks or releases in order to prevent or minimize the adverse effects on persons,
property and the environment. There may be specific reporting requirements associated with spills, leaks or releases, which change from
region to region.
In all cases of leak or spill contact vendor at Emergency Number shown on the front page of this MSDS.
Wear protective clothing. Do not use combustible materials such as sawdust as an absorbent. Recover
spilled material on non-combustible absorbents, such as sand or vermiculite, and place in covered
containers for disposal. Use spark-resistant tools. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Collect product for
recovery or disposal. For release to land, or storm water runoff, contain discharge by constructing dykes
or applying inert absorbent; for release to water, utilize damming and/or water diversion to minimize the
spread of contamination. Ventilate enclosed spaces. Notify applicable government authority if release is
reportable or could adversely affect the environment.
Containment and Clean-Up
Procedures:
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING
Ground and bond equipment and containers to prevent a static charge buildup. Use spark-resistant tools
and avoid "splash-filling" of containers. Use normal "good" industrial hygiene and housekeeping
practices. Containers exposed to heat may be under internal pressure. These should be cooled and
carefully vented before opening. A face shield and apron should be worn.
Handling Practices:
See Section 8, "Engineering Controls".
Ventilation Requirements:
Use only with adequate ventilation and avoid breathing vapours and aerosols. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin or clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Wash contaminated clothing
thoroughly before re-use. Do not use cutting or welding torches on empty drums that contained this
material/product.
Corrosive residue is most likely to be deposited at process vents or storage tanks, especially during filling
operations. The use of compressed air to force corrosive materials from delivery trucks is of special
concern. Scrubbing the exhaust of these vents is highly recommended. Jurisdictional regulations should
be consulted to determine required practices.
Other Precautions:
STORAGE
See below.
Storage Temperature (°C):
Ventilation should be corrosion and explosion proof.
Ventilation Requirements:
Storage area should be equipped with corrosion-resistant floors, sumps and should have controlled
drainage to a recovery tank. Protect from direct sunlight. Protect against physical damage.
Storage Requirements:
Equipment for storage, handling or transport should NOT be made from the following material, or, where
applicable, its alloys: aluminum, copper, zinc, carbon steel, tin, lead, magnesium, brass, nickel or
bronze. Confirm suitability of any material before using.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Recommendations listed in this section indicate the type of equipment, which will provide protection against overexposure to this product.
Conditions of use, adequacy of engineering or other control measures, and actual exposures will dictate the need for specific protective
devices at your workplace.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Local exhaust ventilation required. Ventilation should be corrosion and explosion proof. Make up air
should be supplied to balance air that is removed by local or general exhaust ventilation. Ventilate low
lying areas such as sumps or pits where dense vapours may collect.
For personnel entry into confined spaces (i.e. bulk storage tanks) a proper procedure must be followed.
It must include consideration of, among other things, ventilation, testing of tank atmosphere, provision
and maintenance of SCBA, and emergency rescue. Use the "buddy" system. The second person should
be in view and trained and equipped to execute a rescue. (4)

The ingredient(s) of this product is (are) not classed as carcinogenic by ACGIH, IARC, OSHA or NTP.
Carcinogenicity Data:
No adverse reproductive effects are anticipated.
Reproductive Data:
No adverse mutagenic effects are anticipated.
Mutagenicity Data:
No adverse teratogenic effects are anticipated.
Teratogenicity Data:
None known.
Respiratory / Skin Sensitization
Data:
Alcohols may interact synergistically with chlorinated solvents (example - carbon tetrachloride,
chloroform, bromotrichloromethane), dithiocarbamates (example - disulfiram), dimethylnitrosamine and
thioacetamide. (4)
Synergistic Materials:
Methanol caused moderate skin and eye irritation when tested on rabbits using the Standard Draize
Test. Methanol showed no evidence of carcinogenic potential in limited animal studies in which
methanol was given orally or applied to the skin. Limited evidence of mutagenicity and teratogenicity
exists. (3)
Methanol was tested for alterations in circulating free testosterone and leuteinizing hormone. The most
extensive effects were noticed after exposure to 200 ppm Methanol for six weeks, with serum levels of
testosterone being 32 % that of the controls. A significant change in leuteinizing hormone concentration
after exposure to 10,000 ppm of Methanol. The results of skin absorption experiments led to the deaths
of all animals when exposed to any concentration of Methanol. (4)
Sodium Hydroxide: Many publications in the scientific literature confirm the severely irritating properties
of acute and short-term exposure to Sodium Hydroxide in humans and animals and discuss toxic effects
(such as death, eye damage or changes in lung morphology), which are probably related to the corrosive
properties of this compound. (3)
Massive ingestion of Sodium Hydroxide has been implicated as causing esophageal cancer. Squamous
cells carcinomas of the esophagus occurred approximately 12-42 years later in individuals who survived
accidental childhood ingestion and are likely due to the tissue destruction and possible scarring of the
esophagus rather than a direct effect of Sodium Hydroxide. (3)
