Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if
present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention immediately.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash off with warm water and soap. Get medica
attention if irritation develops and persists.
If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.
Rinse mouth thoroughly. Do not induce vomiting. If ingestion of a large amount does occur, call a
poison control center immediately. Never give liquid to an unconscious person.
Symptoms may be delayed.
Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
protect themselves. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).
Combustible by OSHA criteria. Heat may cause the containers to explode. Runoff to sewer may
cause fire or explosion hazard.
Water fog. Foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Powder.
Water. Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA. Structural firefighters protective
clothing will only provide limited protection.
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a
fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also consider initial evacuation for 800
meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in flame. Withdraw
immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to
fire. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. For massive fire in cargo area,
use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles, if possible. If not, withdraw and let fire burn out.
In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Self-contained breathing apparatus
and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Use standard firefighting procedures and
consider the hazards of other involved materials. Move container from fire area if it can be done
without risk.
Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless
wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep
upwind. Keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water.
ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Stop the
flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. This
material is classified as a water pollutant under the Clean Water Act and should be prevented from
contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems which lead to waterways.

Methods for cleaning up Extinguish all flames in the vicinity. Should not be released into the environment. This product is
miscible in water.

Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Use a non-combustible material like
vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal.
Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.

Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the
MSDS.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling DO NOT handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect
material from direct sunlight. Do not smoke. All equipment used when handling the product must
be grounded. Do not get this material in contact with eyes. Avoid contact with skin. Use only in
area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation. Avoid prolonged exposure. Avoid release to the
environment.
Storage Class II Combustible Liquid.

The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of heat. Keep away from heat
and sources of ignition. This material can accumulate static charge which may cause spark and
become an ignition source. Prevent electrostatic charge build-up by using common bonding and
grounding techniques. Refrigeration recommended. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container
tightly closed. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Keep out of the reach of
children. Use care in handling/storage.

Engineering controls Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or
other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Personal protective equipment
Eye / face protection Do not get in eyes. Chemical goggles are recommended. Eye wash fountain is recommended.
Skin protection Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. Chemical resistant gloves.
Respiratory protection When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators.
General hygiene When using do not smoke. Do not get in eyes. Avoid contact with skin. Keep away from food and
considerations drink. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
