SPECIAL PROTECTIVE ACTIONS FOR FIRST-AIDERS: Wear appropriate personal protective

equipment such as respirator, goggles, protective gloves, etc.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN : Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: water jet, water fog, foam, dry chemical, CO2, dry sand.

Initial fire: dry chemical, CO2, dry sand.

Large fire: water or foam.

UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Not specified.

SPECIAL HAZARDS: Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions.

FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel away. Shut off supply if possible. Remove containers to safe place if possible. Keep surrounding areas cool by spraying  water. Fight fire from an upwind position.

FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: Respiratory and eye protection required for fire-fighting personnel. Full protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be used for all indoor fires and any significant outdoor fires.

HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides.

Accidental release measures

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:

Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel away. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment  as specified in Section 8. Keep upwind, evacuate downwind.

ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Do not flush into sewer, river or any body of water.

CONTAINMENT/CLEAN-UP METHODS: Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other

non-combustible material and transfer to sealable containers. Large spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Stop leak if possible without personal risk. Avoid runoff to sewers or waterways.

Handling and storage

HANDLING

Technical Measures:

Use only in well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Use explosion-proof

electrical equipment and take precautions against build-up of electrostatic charges as necessary. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid ingestion and  inhalation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Provide hand and eye wash station near

work area. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Ventilation: Use only under local exhaust or general ventilation.

Safe Handling Advice: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Prevent leak and spill. Avoid vapor formation. Do not fall, drop, shock or drag the container. Avoid contact  with eye, skin or clothing. Avoid inhalation and ingestion. Use only in well-ventilated area or outdoors.

STORAGE

Storage Conditions:

Protect from direct sunlight. Store in dark and well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, flame, and  all sources of ignition. Keep container tightly closed. Keep
