Precautionary statements

[Prevention] Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. ? No smoking.

Keep container tightly closed.

Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting equipment. Take precautionary

measures against ignition by the static discharge and the spark.

Wear protective gloves/eye protection/face protection.

[Response] IF ON SKIN (or hair): Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse

skin with water/shower.

[Storage] Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep cool.

[Disposal] Dispose of contents/container through a waste management company authorized by the local government

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.

Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.

Skin contact: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with

water/shower. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention.

Eye contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present

and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical

Ingestion: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. Rinse mouth.

Protection of first-aiders: A rescuer should wear personal protective equipment, such as rubber gloves and airtight goggles.

5. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Suitable extinguishing media:

Dry chemical, foam, water in large amounts, carbon dioxide.

Specific hazards: Take care as it may decompose upon combustion or in high temperatures to

generate poisonous fume.

Specific methods: Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing

method according to the surrounding situation is used. Uninvolved persons should

evacuate to a safe place. In case of fire in the surroundings: Keep containers cool by

spraying with water. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so.

Special protective equipment for firefighters:

When extinguishing fire, be sure to wear personal protective equipment.

6. STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE OF SPILL
Personal precautions,protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Entry to non-involved personnel should be controlled

around the leakage area by roping off, etc.

Environmental precautions: Prevent product from entering drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

Absorb spilled material in dry sand or inert absorbent before recovering it into an

airtight container. In case of large amount of spillage, contain a spill by bunding.

Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with

appropriate laws and regulations.

Prevention of secondary hazards:

Remove all sources of ignition. Fire-extinguishing devices should be prepared in case of a fire. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Technical measures: Handling is performed in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective equipment.

Prevent generation of vapor or mist. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flame/hot

surfaces. -No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic

charge. Use explosion-proof equipment. Wash hands and face thoroughly after

handling.

Use a closed system if possible. Use a ventilation, local exhaust if vapor or aerosol

will be generated.

Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed. Store in a cool, dark and well-ventilated place.

Store away from incompatible materials such as oxidizing agents.

Packaging material: Law is followed.
