4. FIRST AID MEASURES

First aid measuresGeneral Advice: Poison information centers in each State capital city can provide additional

assistance for scheduled poisons (13 1126)

Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes andshoes. Get medical attention. If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

Eye Contact: Flush eye with water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Inhalation: Move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.Get medical attention.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to anunconscious person. Consult a physician if necessary.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayedSymptoms Mild eye irritation. Mild skin irritation.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment neededNotes to Physician: Treat symptomatically

Protection of first-aidersFirst-Aid Providers: Avoid exposure to blood or body fluids. Wear gloves and other necessary protective clothing. Dispose ofcontaminated clothing and equipment as bio-hazardous waste

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing MediaSuitable Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical. Alcohol-resistant foam.

Water spray.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Do not use a solid (straight) water stream as it may scatterand spread fire.

Specific hazards arising from the chemical

Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide; Carbon dioxide

Specific hazards: May be combustible at high temperaturesMay be ignited by heat, sparks or flamesFire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases

Special Protective Actions for Firefighters



Specific Methods: Water mist may be used to cool closed containers. Forlarger fires, use water spray or fog. Cool containers withflooding quantities of water until well after fire is out.

Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatuspressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent)and full protective gear

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal Precautions: Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Avoid contactwith skin, eyes and clothing. Use personal protective equipment. Remove all sources ofignition. Pay attention to flashback. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Allequipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Use spark-proof tools andexplosion-proof equipment. In case of large spill, water spray or vapor suppressing foam maybe used to reduce vapors, but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces.

Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent entry into waterways,sewers, basements or confined areas. In case of large spill, dike if needed. Dike farahead of liquid spill for later disposal.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for containment Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, dry sand or earth), then place in asuitable chemical waste container.

Methods for cleaning up Use appropriate tools to put the spilled material in a suitable chemical waste disposalcontainer. Use only non-sparking tools. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGEPrecautions for safe handling

Technical Measures/Precautions:Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Remove all sources of ignition. To avoid ignition ofvapors by static electricity discharge, all metal parts of the equipment must be grounded. Keep away fromincompatible materials.

Safe Handling Advice:Wear personal protective equipment. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. Do not ingest. When using donot smoke. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Technical Measures/Storage Conditions:Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Store at room temperature in the original container.Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Store in a segrated and approved area. Store away from incompatiblematerials.

Incompatible Materials:Oxidizing agents. Acids. Alkalis.

Acute Potential Health Effects:Skin: May cause mild skin irritation. May cause a more significant irritation if skin is abraded. It can beabsorbed through the skin and cause systemic effects.Eyes: May cause mild, slight, temporary eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely.Inhalation: Inhalation of dust may cause respiratory tract irritation. A single exposure is unlikely to behazardous.Ingestion: Very low toxicity. May cause nausea, vomiting. It may affect the kidneys, metabolism (metabolicacidosis, hypocalcemia), cardiovascular system (arrhythmias), liver.Chronic Potential Health Effects:Skin: Prolonged or repeated skin contact is not likely to cause significant irritation. There have been findingsof metabolic acidosis, hypocalcemia, and hyperosmolality, kidney failure and death occuring in burn patientsrepeatedly exposed to PEG-containing topical medications. The use of topical medications containingPolyethylene Glycol may not be appropriate in severely burned patients or individuals with impaired renalfunction.Ingestion: Prolonged or repeated ingeston may cause anaphylaxis, an allergic reaction, and other symtomssimilar to that of acute ingestion.
