4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Swallowed:
If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. If conscious, give 1 to 2 glasses of water to drink. If irritation persists
transport to hospital or doctor.
Eye:
If vapour enters the eyes, immediately, flush with plenty of water or normal saline for 15 minutes, occasionally lifting
eye lids, until no evidence of chemical remains. If irritation persists, immediately transport to hospital or doctor.
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.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire/Explosion Hazard
If safe to do so, move undamaged containers from fire area.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding fire situation.
Hazards From Combustion Products: Primary decomposition products include elemental oxides of tin and antimony.
Precautions for Fire Fighters and Special Protective Equipment: Fire fighters to wear Self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) in confined spaces, in oxygen deficient atmospheres or if exposed to products of decomposition. Full
protective clothing is also recommended.
HAZCHEM CODE: None allocated [Aust]
FLAMMABILITY
This material is not a combustible or flammable solid.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Emergency Procedures:
Low hazard product, use common sense in handling situation.
Methods and Materials for Containment and Clean Up Procedures:
This product is a heavy solid. 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.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
