3 - IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS
This product is classed: Flammable.
Possibility of irritation to the eyes.
Possibility of acute, lethal, noxious effects with symptoms of slight poisoning by inhalation.
4 - FIRST AID.
As a general rule, in case of doubt or if symptoms persist, always call a doctor.
NEVER induce swallowing in an unconscious person.
In the event of exposure by inhalation.
In the event of inhalation, move the patient into the fresh air and keep him/her warm and still.
If breathing is irregular or has stopped, effect mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and call a doctor.
Do not give the patient anything orally.
In the event of splashes or contact with eyes.
Wash thoroughly with soft, clean water for 15 minutes holding the eyelids open.
Refer the patient to an ophthalmologist, in particular if there is any redness, pain or visual impairment.
Regardless of the initial state, refer the patient to an ophthalmologist and show him the label.
In the event of splashes or contact with skin.
Remove contaminated clothing and wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water or a recognised cleaner.
DO NOT use solvents or thinners.
In the event of swallowing.
In the event of swallowing, if the quantity is small (no more than one mouthful), rinse the mouth with water and consult
a doctor.
SICOMIN
Keep still. DO NOT induce vomiting.
Call a doctor immediately and show him the label.
5 - FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Chemical powders, carbon dioxide and other extinguishing gas are suitable for small fires.
In the event of fire, the recommended extinguishing agents are:
Special foams for polar liquids (known as alcohol resistant), powders, carbon dioxide.
In the event of fire, use specifically suitable extinguishing agents. Never use water.
Extinguishing agents not to be used
Water is not generally recommended since it can be ineffective; however, it can be used successfully to cool
containers exposed to the fire and to disperse fumes.
A fire will often produce a thick black smoke. Exposure to decomposition products may be hazardous to health.
Do not breathe in smoke.
Prevent the effluent of fire-fighting measures from entering drains or waterways.
Special equipment for fire-fighting personnel.
Fire-fighting personnel are to be equipped with autonomous insulating breathing apparatus.
Due to the toxicity of the gas emitted on thermal decomposition of the products, fire-fighting personnel are to be
equipped with autonomous insulating breathing apparatus.
6 - MEASURES TO BE TAKEN IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL SPILLAGE
Safety precautions:
Eliminate any possible source of ignition and ventilate the premises.
Avoid inhaling the fumes.
Avoid any contact with the skin and eyes.
Consult the safety measures listed under headings 7 and 8.
Environmental safety precautions:
Contain and control the leaks or spills with non-combustible absorbent materials such as sand, earth, vermiculite, diatom
earth in drums for waste disposal.
Prevent any material from entering drains or waterways.
Use drums to dispose of waste recovered in accordance with applicable regulations (see heading 13).
If the product contaminates waterways, rivers or drains, alert the relevant authorities in accordance with statutory
procedures
Cleaning methods:
Clean preferably with a detergent, do not use solvents.
7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
The regulations relating to storage premises apply to workshops where the product is handled.
Handling:
Handle in well-ventilated areas.
The fumes are denser than air. They can spread along the ground and form explosive mixtures with air
Prevent the formation of flammable or explosive concentrations in air and avoid vapor concentrations higher than the
occupational exposure limits.
Fire prevention:
Prevent the accumulation of electrostatic charges with connections to earth
The preparation may become electrostatically charged; always place on the ground during transfer. Wear antistatic
shoes and clothes and make floors of conductive materials.
Use the product in premises where there are no naked flames or other sources of ignition and have protected electrical
equipment
Keep packages tightly closed and away from sources of heat, sparks and naked flames.
Do not use tools which may produce sparks. Do not smoke.
SICOMIN
Prevent access by unauthorized personnel.
Recommended equipment and procedures
Observe precautions stated on label and also industrial safety regulations
Packages which have been opened must be reclosed carefully and stored in an upright position
Avoid inhaling fumes.
Where the personnel must carry out work in a booth, whether for spraying or otherwise, the ventilation may be
inadequate to control particles and solvent fumes in every case.
It is therefore recommended that personnel wear masks with a compressed air supply during spraying operations until
the concentration of particles and solvent fumes has fallen below the exposure limits.
Avoid contact of product with the eyes
Prohibited equipment and procedures.
Smoking, eating and drinking are prohibited in premises where the preparation is used
Never open the packages under pressure
Storage.
Keep the container tightly closed in a dry place.
Keep away from all sources of ignition - do not smoke.
Keep well away from all sources of ignition, heat and direct sunlight
The floor must be impermeable and form a collecting basin so that, in the event of an accidental spillage, the liquid
cannot spread beyond this area.
8 - EXPOSURE CONTROL - PERSONAL SAFETY
Technical measures.
Ensure adequate ventilation, if possible with extractor fans at work posts and appropriate general extraction.
If this ventilation is insufficient to maintain the concentration of solvent fumes below the exposure limits, wear breathing
apparatus
Exposure limits per INRS ND 1945-153-93/(1996) and ND 2022-163-96:
