4. FIRST AID MEASURES (Continued)
Skin:
If molten solder falls onto skin, immediately, place effected item under cool running water, if Silverzine 鈩? is available,
apply liberally and follow manufacturers instructions for its application. If injury is serious immediately transport to
hospital or doctor.
Inhaled:
Move victim to fresh air. Apply resuscitation if victim is not breathing - If trained personnel available administer
oxygen if breathing is difficult.
First Aid Facilities:
Eye wash fountain, safety shower and normal wash room facilities.
Advice to Doctor:
Treat symptomatically. If major over-exposure has occurred, individual should be taken to a doctor for evaluation of
blood lead level and any gastrointestinal or neurological symptoms.
In case of poisoning, contact Poisons Information Centre.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water fog, foam or dry chemical powder.
Hazards From Combustion Products: Decomposes on heating emitting elemental entities including lead fume.
Precautions for Fire Fighters and Special Protective Equipment: If safe to do so, move undamaged containers from
fire area. Fire fighters to wear Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) in confined spaces, in oxygen deficient
atmospheres or if exposed to products of decomposition.
HAZCHEM CODE: None allocated [Aust].
Flammability
This material is not a combustible or flammable solid.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
If molten solder falls to the floor, allow to cool before picking up and then recycle/dispose. If the wire falls to the
ground, pick up and re-use or place into a suitably labeled container for later disposal.
Emergency Procedures:
Ventilate area. Wear suitable protective equipment as outlined under personal protection in this MSDS.
Methods and Materials for Containment and Clean Up Procedures:
Use non-sparking tools or HEPA vacuum system to pick up. Place into labelled drum for later disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for Safe Handling:
Avoid contact with skin and inhaling fumes from the soldering process. Provide adequate ventilation.
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking after handling solder to remove any
rosin.
Conditions for Safe Storage:
Keep containers tightly closed, when not using the product. Store in original packages as approved by manufacturer.
Store in an area that is dry and well-ventilation away from ignition sources. For further information please refer to the
Engineering Controls of this MSDS.
