FIRST AID

Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING: Immediately give two glasses of water or activated charcoal slurry. Never give

         anything by mouth of an unconscious person. Get immediate medical attention.

Excessive Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Supply fresh air or oxygen. If breathing is difficult give oxygen. Give artificial

         respiration if breathing has stopped. Call physician. INSTRUCTION TO PHYSICIAN: To prepare activated

         charcoal slurry, suspend 50 grams activated charcoal in 400 mL water in plastic bottle and shake well. Administer

         approximately 350 mL for an average adult.

Eye Contact: In case of eye contact immediately flush with water for 15 minutes. Call physician.

Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Avoid repeated skin contact. Wash thoroughly after handling and before eating or

         smoking.



SECTION V � REACTIVITY DATA

Stability: Stable       Conditions to avoid: None             Haz. Decomposition: None

Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur                      Incompatibility: None



SECTION VI � SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES

FOR SMALL SPILLS: Wipe up material with paper towel, or absorb with sand or any other absorbent material.



FOR LARGE SPILLS: Avoid breathing vapors. Get workers out of affected area. If it cannot be ventilated, use self

      contained breathing apparatus along with protective equipment. If spill is too large to absorb with sand then dike

      the spill to prevent from spreading or draining into sewer or ground. DO NOT dilute or flush material down sewer

      or onto ground. Once spill is contained, wipe up with absorbent material. The absorbent material is now considered

      “hazardous�. Consult “Waste Disposal� section.



WASTE DISPOSAL: Contents of this product may be considered hazardous. Consult applicable Federal, state and local

     regulations for allowable disposal methods.



SECTION VII � SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
