4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: In case of contact, or suspected contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get
medical attention immediately after flushing.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Get medical attention! If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent aspiration.
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is difficult
give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water for 15 minutes. If irritation persists or signs of toxicity occur, seek medical attention. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes, and launder before reuse. If product is injected into or under the skin, or into any part of
the body, the individual should be evaluated immediately by a physician as a surgical emergency.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment to prevent skin and eye contact.
Spill Procedures: Contain any liquid from leaking containers. Avoid all sources of ignition; heat, sparks and open flames.
Do not puncture or incinerate container. Contents under pressure. Wear proper protective equipment as specified in
the protective equipment section. Remove sources of ignition. Leaking containers should be removed to an isolated,
well-ventilated area and transferred to other suitable containers. Wipe, scrape, or soak up in an inert material and put
in a container intended for flammable materials for disposal.
Environmental Precautions: Do not allow to enter sanitary drains, sewer or surface and subsurface waters. Keep out of lakes, ponds or streams.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling and Caution: Contents under pressure. Keep away from heat and open flame. Use only in a well ventilated area. Avoid breathing vapors,
Storage: if exposed to high vapor concentration, leave area at once. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not puncture, incinerate or store
above 120 F. Exposure to high temperatures may cuase bursting. DO NOT store in the passenger compartment of an automobile.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls: Use in a well ventilated area. Local exhaust ventilation as necessary to maintain exposures to within applicable
limits.
Eyes: Chemical goggles; also wear a face shield if splashing hazard exists.
Skin Protection: Avoid skin contact. Wear protective clothing and gloves.
Respiratory Protection: Do not breath mist or vapor. Use in a well ventilated area. Appropriate respiratory protection shall be worn when
applied engineering controls are not adequate to protect against inhalation exposure.
