IV. FIRST-AID MEASURES
Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, have a trained individual administer oxygen. If not breathing,
Inhalation:
give artificial respiration and have a trained individual administer oxygen. Get medical attention
immediately
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes retracting eyelids often. Tilt the head
Eyes:
to prevent chemical from transferring to the uncontaminated eye. Get immediate medical attention and
monitor the eye daily as advised by your physician. Serious harm (damage) may result if treatment is
delayed. Continue to flush eyes while awaiting medical attention
Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing, launder immediately, and discard
Skin Contact:
contaminated leather goods. Get medical attention immediately.
Do not induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately. Drink two glasses of water or milk to
Ingestion:
dilute. Provide medical care provider with this MSDS. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person

VI. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Exposure to the spilled material may be severely irritating or toxic. Follow
Personal Precautions and Equipment:
personal protective equipment recommendations found in Section VIII of this
MSDS. Personal protective equipment needs must be evaluated based on
information provided on this sheet and the special circumstances created by the
spill including; the material spilled, the quantity of the spill, the area in which
the spill occurred, and the expertise of employees in the area responding to the
spill. Never exceed any occupational exposure limits.
Prevent the spread of any spill to minimize harm to human health and the
Methods for Clean-up:
environment if safe to do so. Wear complete and proper personal protective
equipment following the recommendation of Section VIII at a minimum. Dike
with suitable absorbent material like granulated clay. Gather and store in a
sealed container pending a waste disposal evaluation.
VII. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling Technical Measures and Precautions:
breathing the material. Use only in a well ventilated area.
Refrigerate.
Recommended storage:
VIII. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls are normally required when handling or
Engineering Measures:
using this product to avoid overexposure.
Respiratory protection may be required to avoid overexposure when handling this product.
Respiratory Protection:
General or local exhaust ventilation is the preferred means of protection. Use a respirator if
general room ventilation is not available or sufficient to eliminate symptoms.
Wear chemically resistant safety glasses with side shields when handling this product. Wear
Eye Protection:
additional eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield when the possibility
exists for eye contact with splashing or spraying liquid, or airborne material. Do not wear contact
lenses. Have an eye wash station available.
