Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SWALLOWED
- If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
- If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if
possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
- Observe the patient carefully.
- Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness;
i.e. becoming unconscious.
- Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can
comfortably drink.
- Seek medical advice.
EYE
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
- Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
- Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and
moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
- If pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
- Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel.
SKIN
If skin or hair contact occurs:
- Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
- Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED
- If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
- Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
- Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where
possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
- Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve
resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
- Transport to hospital, or doctor.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
Treat symptomatically.

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONO-N-PROPYL ETHER:
WATER:
No exposure limits set by NOHSC or ACGIH.
POLYDIMETHYLSILOXANE:
PROPYLENE GLYCOL:
Saturated vapour concentration @ 20 deg C.= 65.8 ppm, 204.6 mg/m3; i.e
higher concentrations can only occur as aerosols or at higher temperatures.
Odour Threshold: Practically odourless.
A small number of individuals show skin irritation or sensitisation from
repeated or prolonged exposure to propylene glycol. A workplace
environmental exposure limit (WEEL) has been established by AIHA and is
thought to be protective against systemic effects.
POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL TRIMETHYLNONYL ETHER:
POTASSIUM TRIPOLYPHOSPHATE:
These "dusts" have little adverse effect on the lungs and do not produce toxic effects
or organic disease. Although there is no dust which does not evoke some cellular response
at sufficiently high concentrations, the cellular response caused by P.N.O.C.s has the
following characteristics:
- the architecture of the air spaces remain intact,
- scar tissue (collagen) is not synthesised to any degree,
- tissue reaction is potentially reversible.
Extensive concentrations of P.N.O.C.s may:
- seriously reduce visibility,
- cause unpleasant deposits in the eyes, ears and nasal passages,
- contribute to skin or mucous membrane injury by chemical or mechanical action, per
se, or by the rigorous skin cleansing procedures necessary for their removal. [ACGIH]
This limit does not apply:
- to brief exposures to higher concentrations
- nor does it apply to those substances that may cause physiological impairment at
lower concentrations but for which a TLV has as yet to be determined.
This exposure standard applies to particles which
- are insoluble or poorly soluble* in water or, preferably, in aqueous lung fluid (if
data is available) and
- have a low toxicity (i.e.. are not cytotoxic, genotoxic, or otherwise chemically
reactive with lung tissue, and do not emit ionizing radiation, cause immune sensitization
, or cause toxic effects other than by inflammation or by a mechanism of lung overload).
PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONO-N-PROPYL ETHER:
TRISODIUM PHOSPHATE:
CEL Ceiling: 5 mg/m3 (compare WEEL, 15 minute time weighted average)
The workplace environmental exposure limit (WEEL) recommended by the AIHA
is thought to be protective against eye and respiratory tract irritation.
Exposure at high levels may cause substantial discomfort. No evidence
exists for chronic or long term effects. The TLV for tetrasodium
pyrophosphate (a less alkaline salt) is 5.0 mg/m3 (8 hour time-weighted
average). Upper respiratory tract irritation occurred amongst employess
exposed occasionaly to 0.5 to 2.0 mg/m3 trisodium phosphate for up to one
hour. Primary irritation of the respiratory passages has been documented
in workers exposed to 7-10 mg/m3, for even short periods. Some
acclimatisation to the initial irritation has also been reported.

WATER:
PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE
- Safety glasses with side shields; or as required,
- Chemical goggles.
- Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and
concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or
restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a
review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account
of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal
and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure,
begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens
should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be
removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC
NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
HANDS/FEET
Wear chemical protective gloves. eg. PVC gloves with barrier cream
Wear safety footwear.
OTHER
- Overalls.
- Eyewash unit.
RESPIRATOR
Selection of the Class and Type of respirator will depend upon the level of breathing
zone contaminant and the chemical nature of the contaminant. Protection Factors (defined
as the ratio of contaminant outside and inside the mask) may also be important.

For further information consult site specific

ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Use in a well-ventilated area.
General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. If risk of overexposure
exists, wear SAA approved respirator. Correct fit is essential to obtain adequate
protection. Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage areas.

POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL TRIMETHYLNONYL ETHER:
DO NOT discharge into sewer or waterways.
Octanol/water partition coefficients cannot easily be determined for surfactants because
one part of the molecule is hydrophilic and the other part is hydrophobic. Consequently
they tend to accumulate at the interface and are not extracted into one or other of the
liquid phases. As a result surfactants are expected to transfer slowly, for example, from
water into the flesh of fish. During this process, readily biodegradable surfactants are
expected to be metabolised rapidly during the process of bioaccumulation. This was
emphasised by the OECD Expert Group stating that chemicals are not to be considered to
show bioaccumulation potential if they are readily biodegradable.
Several anionic and nonionic surfactants have been investigated to evaluate their
potential to bioconcentrate in fish. BCF values (BCF - bioconcentration factor) ranging
from 1 to 350 were found. These are absolute maximum values, resulting from the
radiolabelling technique used. In all these studies, substantial oxidative metabolism was
found resulting in the highest radioactivity in the gall bladder. This indicates liver
transformation of the parent compound and biliary excretion of the metabolised compounds,
so that "real" bioconcentration is overstated. After correction it can be expected that

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
"real" parent BCF values are one order of magnitude less than those indicated above, i.e.
"real" BCF is <100. Therefore the usual data used for classification by EU directives to
determine whether a substance is "Dangerous to the "Environment" has little bearing on
whether the use of the surfactant is environmentally acceptable.
PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONO-N-PROPYL ETHER:
DO NOT discharge into sewer or waterways.
TRISODIUM PHOSPHATE:
The principal problems of phosphate contamination of the environment relates to
eutrophication processes in lakes and ponds. Phosphorus is an essential plant nutrient
and is usually the limiting nutrient for blue-green algae. A lake undergoing
eutrophication shows a rapid growth of algae in surface waters. Planktonic algae cause
turbidity and flotation films. Shore algae cause ugly muddying, films and damage to
reeds. Decay of these algae causes oxygen depletion in the deep water and shallow water
near the shore. The process is self-perpetuating because anoxic conditions at the
sediment/water interface causes the release of more adsorbed phosphates from the
sediment. The growth of algae produces undesirable effects on the treatment of water for
drinking purposes, on fisheries, and on the use of lakes for recreational purposes.
