If skin or hair contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair with running
SKIN CONTACT:
water. Continue flushing until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a doctor.
Note: Under normal use conditions, this product is applied to the skin. However in emergency
situations (eg cleaning up a spillage) or when handling bulk containers the protective equipment
listed below [Section 8] must be worn. Risk assessments should always be conducted to identify the
hazards and in turn determine the appropriate personal protective equipment for the hazard.

NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
5. FIRE FIGHTING METHODS
Alcohol stable foam, carbon dioxide or dry chemical powder.
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Flammable liquid. Explosive air-vapour mixture may form. Explosive when mixed
HAZARDS FROM COMBUSTION:
with oxidising agents. Avoid all ignition sources. Keep away from heat, naked
flames or sparks and oxidising agents. Flameproof equipment is necessary in all
areas where this chemical is being used. Nearby equipment must be earthed.
Heating can cause expansion or decomposition of the material, which can lead to
the containers exploding. If safe to do so, remove containers from the path of fire.
On burning will emit toxic fumes such as carbon oxides.
Fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus to minimise risk of

equipment used must be earthed. Vapours are heavier than air and may travel along the ground,
PROCEDURES:
gathering in depressions, resulting in Oxygen deficiency. Spillages are slippery. Ensure adequate
ventilation, work up wind or increase ventilation. Keep spectators away 鈥? rope off the area or evacuate
the area. Avoid accidents, clean up immediately. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye
contamination and inhalation of mists or vapour.
Do not smoke during the clean up procedure. Contain the spill and prevent run off into confined areas,
METHODS AND
drains and waterways.

and seal in properly labelled drums for disposal in an area approved by local authority by-laws. Keep
CLEAN UP:
away from heat, naked flame or sparks.
Wash area down with excess water to remove residual material. Do not flush to drain.
