4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye If in eyes, hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running water. Continue flushing until advised to
stop by the PIC or a doctor, or for at least 15 minutes.
Inhalation If inhaled, remove from contaminated area. To protect rescuer, use an Air-line respirator where an inhalation risk
exists. Apply artificial respiration if not breathing.
Skin If skin or hair contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair with running water. Continue
flushing with water until advised to stop by the PIC or a doctor.
Ingestion For advice, contact a Poison Information Centre on 13 11 26 (Australia Wide) or a doctor (at once). If swallowed,
do not induce vomiting.
Advice to Doctor Treat symptomatically
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability Non flammable liquid. May evolve toxic gases (carbon oxides, hydrogen fluoride, fluorides, hydrocarbons) when
heated to decomposition. Will evolve highly corrosive - toxic hydrogen fluoride gas at very high temperatures.
Fire and Non flammable. Evacuate area and contact emergency services. Toxic gases (hydrogen fluoride, fluorides, carbon
oxides, hydrocarbons) may be evolved when heated. Remain upwind and notify those downwind of hazard. Wear
Explosion
full protective equipment (see spill above) including Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) when combating
fire. Use waterfog to cool intact containers and nearby areas.
Extinguishing Non flammable.
Hazchem Code 2Y
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spillage If cans are punctured (bulk), clear area of all unprotected personnel and ventilate area. Wear splash-proof
goggles, viton/nitrile gloves, coveralls and boots. Where an inhalation risk exists, wear an Air-line respirator.
Collect and allow to discharge outdoors. Absorb residues with sand or similar and place in clean containers for
disposal.
7. STORAGE AND HANDLING
Storage Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area, removed from oxidising agents, alkalis, active metals, metal powders (eg.
aluminium, barium, lithium), heat and foodstuffs. Aerosol containers may explode if exposed to excessive heat (>
50 C). Ensure containers are adequately labelled and protected from physical damage.
Handling Before use carefully read the product label. Use of safe work practices are recommended to avoid eye or skin
contact and inhalation. Observe good personal hygiene, including washing hands before eating. Prohibit eating,
drinking and smoking in contaminated areas.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Health Hazard Asphyxiant - narcotic. This product may present a hazard with direct eye contact, prolonged and repeated skin
contact or with vapour inhalation at high levels. Individuals with impaired cardiovascular function, especially those
Summary
with a history of cardiac arrhythmias, are advised to avoid exposure.
Eye Low irritant. Contact may result in irritation and lacrimation.
Inhalation Irritant - narcotic - asphyxiant. Over exposure may result in upper respiratory tract irritation, nausea and
headache. At high levels; dizziness, breathing difficulties and at very high levels, anaesthesia, cardiac
arrhythmias, pulmonary oedema and unconsciousness.
Skin Low irritant. Prolonged or repeated contact may result in mild irritation.
Ingestion Ingestion is considered unlikely due to product form.

AICS All chemicals listed on the Australian Inventory of Chemical Substances (AICS).
16. OTHER INFORMATION
Additional ASPHYXIANTS (1): When present in the atmospheres in high concentrations, asphyxiants reduce the oxygen
concentration by displacement. Atmospheres deficient in oxygen do not provide adequate sensory warning of
Information
danger and most simple asphyxiants are odourless. Therefore it is not appropriate to recommend an exposure
standard for each asphyxiant, but to maintain oxygen concentrations. However, some asphyxiants may be given
an exposure standard due to the potential for narcotic effects at high concentrations or an explosion hazard.
ASPHYXIANTS (2): There is a significant hazard associated with workers entering poorly ventilated areas (eg.
tanks) where oxygen may be deficient. An air supplied breathing apparatus may be required if adequate ventilation
is not ensured. Refer to AS/NZS 2865 - Safe Working in a Confined Space.

HEALTH EFFECTS FROM EXPOSURE:
It should be noted that the effects from exposure to this product will depend on several factors including: frequency
and duration of use; quantity used; effectiveness of control measures; protective equipment used and method of
application. Given that it is impractical to prepare a Chem Alert report which would encompass all possible
scenarios, it is anticipated that users will assess the risks and apply control methods where appropriate.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GUIDELINES:
The recommendation for protective equipment contained within this Chem Alert report is provided as a guide only.
Factors such as method of application, working environment, quantity used, product concentration and the
availability of engineering controls should be considered before final selection of personal protective equipment is
made.
COLOUR RATING SYSTEM: RMT has assigned all Chem Alert reports a colour rating of Green, Amber or Red for
the sole purpose of providing users with a quick and easy means of determining the hazardous nature of a
product. Safe handling recommendations are provided in all Chem Alert reports so as to clearly identify how users
can control the hazards and thereby reduce the risk (or likelihood) of adverse effects. As a general guideline, a
Green colour rating indicates a low hazard, an Amber colour rating indicates a moderate hazard and a Red colour
rating indicates a high hazard.
While all due care has been taken by RMT in the preparation of the Colour Rating System, it is intended as a
guide only and RMT does not provide any warranty in relation to the accuracy of the Colour Rating System. As far
as is lawfully possible, RMT accepts no liability or responsibility whatsoever for the actions or omissions of any
person in reliance on the Colour Rating System.
