SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES

First Aid Measures
General advice Immediate medical attention is required. In case of accident or unwellness, seek medical
advice immediately (show directions for use or safety data sheet if possible). If symptoms
persist, call a physician.
Eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. If
symptoms persist, call a physician. Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial
flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Keep eye
wide open while rinsing.
Skin Contact Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. If skin
irritation persists, call a physician. Immediate medical attention is not required. Wash off
immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and
shoes.
Inhalation Remove to fresh air If symptoms persist, call a physician Artificial respiration and/or oxygen
may be necessary Call a physician Immediate medical attention is not required Move to
fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of vapors
Ingestion Immediate medical attention is not required. Rinse mouth. Drink plenty of water. Do NOT
induce vomiting. Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician.
Self-protection of the first aider Remove all sources of ignition. Use personal protective equipment as required.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms No data available.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ensure adequate
ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use personal protective equipment as required.
Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains. Do
not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. See Section 12 for additional
Ecological Information.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containment Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Methods for cleaning up Use personal protective equipment as required. Cover powder spill with plastic sheet or tarp
to minimize spreading and keep powder dry. Take up mechanically, placing in appropriate
containers for disposal. Avoid creating dust. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Soak
up with inert absorbent material. Dam up. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled
containers. Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal. After cleaning, flush
away traces with water. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Advice on safe handling Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Keep away from heat, sparks,
flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static electricity).
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion-proof equipment. All equipment used when handling the product must be
grounded. Use with local exhaust ventilation. Use personal protective equipment as
required. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Conditions Keep tightly closed in a dry and cool place. Keep in properly labeled containers. Keep
containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store at room temperature.
Incompatible materials Strong oxidizing agents. Water.

SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters
Exposure Guidelines This product, as supplied, does not contain any hazardous materials with occupational
exposure limits established by the region specific regulatory bodies.
Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Tight sealing safety goggles. Face protection shield.
