SECTION 4 First aid measures

Description of first aid measures

Eye Contact:

If product comes in contact with eyes remove the patient from gas source or contaminated area. Take the patient to the nearest eye wash, shower or other source of clean water. Open the eyelid(s) wide to allow the material to evaporate. Gently rinse the affected eye(s) with clean, cool water for at least 15 minutes. Have the patient lie or sit down and tilt the head back. Hold the eyelid(s) open and pour water slowly over theeyeball(s) at the inner corners, letting the water run out of the outer corners. The patient may be in great pain and wish to keep the eyes closed. It is important that the material is rinsed from the eyes to prevent further damage. Ensure that the patient looks up, and side to side as the eye is rinsed in order to better reach all parts of the eye(s) Transport to hospital or doctor. Even when no pain persists and vision is good, a doctor should examine the eye as delayed damage may occur. If the patient cannot tolerate light, protect the eyes with a clean, loosely tied bandage. Ensure verbal communication and physical contact with the patient.

DO NOT allow the patient to rub the eyes DO NOT allow the patient to tightly shut the eyes DO NOT introduce oil or ointment into the eye(s) without medical advice DO NOT use hot or tepid water.

Skin Contact:

If skin or hair contact occurs:Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation.

Inhalation:

Following exposure to gas, remove the patient from the gas source or contaminated area. NOTE: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus may be required to assure the safety of the rescuer. Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block the airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. If the patient is not breathing spontaneously, administer rescue breathing. If the patient does not have a pulse, administer CPR. If medical oxygen and appropriately trained personnel are available, administer 100% oxygen. Summon an emergency ambulance. If an ambulance is not available, contact a physician, hospital, or Poison Control Centre for further instruction. Keep the patient warm, comfortable and at rest while awaiting medical care. MONITOR THE BREATHING AND PULSE, CONTINUOUSLY. Administer rescue breathing (preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask-device, or pocket mask as trained) or CPR if necessary.

Ingestion:

Avoid giving milk or oils. Avoid giving alcohol. Not considered a normal route of entry.If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower than their hips to help avoid possible aspiration of vomitus.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related hydrocarbons: Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is respiratory failure. Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g. cyanosis, tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen. Patients with inadequate tidal volumesor poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated. Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines and cardiac monitorsshould be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance. A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax. Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective bronchodilators (e.g.Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a second choice. Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology]

for gas exposures:--------------------------------------------------------------BASIC TREATMENT--------------------------------------------------------------

Establish a patent airway with suction where necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilation as necessary. Administer oxygen by non-rebreather mask at 10 to 15 l/min. Monitor and treat, where necessary, for pulmonary oedema . Monitor and treat, where necessary, for shock. Anticipate seizures.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Page 2 of 7

ADVANCED TREATMENT--------------------------------------------------------------

Consider orotracheal or nasotracheal intubation for airway control in unconscious patient or where respiratory arrest has occurred. Positive-pressure ventilation using a bag-valve mask might be of use. Monitor and treat, where necessary, for arrhythmias. Start an IV D5W TKO. If signs of hypovolaemia are present use lactated Ringers solution. Fluid overload might create complications. Drug therapy should be considered for pulmonary oedema. Hypotension with signs of hypovolaemia requires the cautious administration of fluids. Fluid overload might create complications. Treat seizures with diazepam. Proparacaine hydrochloride should be used to assist eye irrigation.

SECTION 5 Firefighting measures

Extinguishing media

DO NOT EXTINGUISH BURNING GAS UNLESS LEAK CAN BE STOPPED SAFELY:OTHERWISE: LEAVE GAS TO BURN.FOR SMALL FIRE:

Dry chemical, CO2 or water spray to extinguish gas (only if absolutely necessary and safe to do so).

Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture

Fire Incompatibility:

Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result

Advice for firefighters

Fire Fighting:

FOR FIRES INVOLVING MANY GAS CYLINDERS: To stop the flow of gas, specifically trained personnel may inert the atmosphere to reduce oxygen levels thus allowing the capping of leaking container(s). Reduce the rate of flow and inject an inert gas, if possible, before completely stopping the flow to prevent flashback. DO NOT extinguish the fire until the supply is shut off

Fire/Explosion Hazard:

HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Will form explosive mixtures with air Fire exposed containers may vent contents through pressure relief valves thereby increasing fire intensity and/ or vapour concentration.

SECTION 6 Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Minor Spills:

Avoid breathing vapour and any contact with liquid or gas. Protective equipment including respirator should be used. DO NOT enter confined spaces where gas may have accumulated.

Major Spills:

Clear area of all unprotected personnel and move upwind. Alert Emergency Authority and advise them of the location and nature of hazard. May be violently or explosively reactive. Wear full body clothing with breathing apparatus.

Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS.

SECTION 7 Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Safe handling

Ensure that any lines, piping are engineered to prevent backflow of oxygen gas to acetylene cylinders. Do not store undissolved acetylene gas or reticulate gas at pressures above 100 kPa as fire / explosion may result. Ensure hoses are not attacked by acetone.

Other information

Store in an upright position. Outside or detached storage is preferred.

Rotate all stock to prevent ageing. Use on FIFO (First In-First Out) basis

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Suitable container:

Cylinder: Ensure the use of equipment rated for cylinder pressure. Ensure the use of compatible materials of construction. Valve protection cap to be in place until cylinder is secured, connected.

Storage incompatibility:

Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering controls

Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and willtypically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.The basic types of engineering controls are:Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.

Personal protection

Eye and face protection:

Safety glasses with side shields. 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, shouldbe created for each workplace or task.

Skin protection:

See Hand protection below

Hand protection:

When handling hot materials wear heat resistant, elbow length gloves. Rubber gloves are not recommended when handling hot objects, materialsWhen handling sealed and suitably insulated cylinders wear cloth or leather gloves.

Body protection:

See Other protection below

Other protection:

The clothing worn by process operators insulated from earth may develop static charges far higher (up to 100 times) than the minimum ignition energies for various flammable gas-airmixtures. This holds true for a wide range of clothing materials including cotton. Avoid dangerous levels of charge by ensuring a low resistivity of the surface material worn outermost.

SECTION 11 Toxicological information

Information on toxicological effects

Inhaled:

Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo.Inhalation of vapours or aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the course of normal handling, may be damaging to the health of the individual.Limited evidence or practical experience suggests that the material may produce irritation of the respiratory system, in a significant number of individuals, following inhalation.

Ingestion:

Overexposure is unlikely in this form.Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments

Skin Contact:

The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requiresthat exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting.Repeated exposure may cause skin cracking, flaking or drying following normal handling and use.Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material

Eye:

Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness(as with windburn).Direct contact with the eye may not cause irritation because of the extreme volatility of the gas; however concentrated atmospheres may produce irritation after brief exposures..

Chronic:

Long-term exposure to the product is not thought to produce chronic effects adverse to health (as classified by EC Directives using animal models); nevertheless exposure by all routes should beminimised as a matter of course.Principal route of occupational exposure to the gas is by inhalation.

Inhalation

If dust is inhaled, remove from contaminated area. Encourage patient to blow nose to ensure clear breathing passages. Ask patient to rinse mouth with water but to not drink water. Seek immediate medical attention.

Ingestion

If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain openairway and prevent aspiration. Observe the patient carefully. Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness; i.e. becomingunconscious. Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can comfortably drink. Seek medical advice.


Treat symptomatically.

SECTION 5 FIREFIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing media

Water spray or fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. BCF (where regulations permit). Carbon dioxide.


Fire Incompatibility None known.


Fire Fighting

Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves in the event of a fire. Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. Use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area.

DO NOT approach containers suspected to be hot. Cool fire exposed containers with water spray from a protected location. If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. Equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use.

Fire/Explosion Hazard

Non combustible. Not considered a significant fire risk, however containers may burn.

Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of:,silicon dioxide (SiO2),metal oxides

SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES


Minor Spills

Restrict access to area until completion of clean up. Post warning signs. Clear area of all unprotected personnel and move upwind. Avoid dust inhalation. Approved respiratory protection is essential. Avoid all personal contact and wear full protective equipment. Specific asbestos exhaust extraction fan required with High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. Use a wet method or an approved vacuum cleaning system with HEPA filters to pick up spills. Collect solid residues and seal in drums for disposal. Label clearly with Asbestos label.

Major Spills

Clear area of personnel and move upwind. Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Removal of asbestos should be undertaken in accordance with government recommendations, by registeredcontractors, and only where a permit has been issued for that particular location. Restrict access to area until completion of clean up.

Chemwatch: 2590

Version No: 4.1.1.1



Continued...

Post warning signs:- Asbestos Working Area- No Unauthorised Entry- Respiratory Protection Essential. Approved respiratory protection must be worn. Consider special asbestos exhaust extraction fan required with High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter. Extraction equipment shall be operated continuously whilst removal enclosure is in place. Thoroughly wet down the spilled material. Wet removal method preferred - dry removal is less desirable. Collect all product and residues in suitably labeled and sealed containers. After clean up decontaminate and launder all protective clothing and equipment before storing and reusing.


SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE


Safe handling

Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation. Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs. Use in a well-ventilated area. Prevent concentration in hollows and sumps.

DO NOT enter confined spaces until atmosphere has been checked.

DO NOT allow material to contact humans, exposed food or food utensils. Avoid contact with incompatible materials.

When handling, DO NOT eat, drink or smoke. Keep containers securely sealed when not in use. Avoid physical damage to containers. Always wash hands with soap and water after handling. Work clothes should be laundered separately. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use. Use good occupational work practice. Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this MSDS.Atmosphere should be regularly checked against established exposure standards to ensure safe workingconditions are maintained.

Other information

Store in original containers. Keep containers securely sealed. Store in a cool, dry area protected from environmental extremes. Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers. Protect containers against physical damage and check regularly for leaks. Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this MSDS.

For major quantities:Consider storage in bunded areas - ensure storage areas are isolated from sources of community water(including stormwater, ground water, lakes and streams}. Ensure that accidental discharge to air or water is the subject of a contingency disaster management plan; thismay require consultation with local authorities.


Suitable container

Containers should comply with recommendations of Asbestos of various Regulations and/ or Codes ofPractice (such as that produced by ASCC). Usual recommendations are to 'double-bag' the asbestos and then put the bags into a metal drum.. Howeverthere is no legal restriction on the type of container provided it is dust tight. Check that containers are clearly labeled with Asbestos label.Polyethylene or polypropylene container. Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.

Storage incompatibility

Metals and their oxides or salts may react violently with chlorine trifluoride and bromine trifluoride. These trifluorides are hypergolic oxidisers. They ignites on contact (without external source of heat or ignition)with recognised fuels - contact with these materials, following an ambient or slightly elevated temperature, isoften violent and may produce ignition. The state of subdivision may affect the results. Avoid strong acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides and chloroformates.

MATERIAL DATA

WARNING: All forms of asbestos are listed as HUMAN CARCINOGENS:Human Sufficient Evidence-IARC-International Agency for Research on CancerSome jurisdictions require that health surveillance be conducted on occupationally exposed workers. Such surveillance should emphasise:(i) demography, occupational and medical history and health advice.(ii) physical examination if indicated(iii) records of personal exposure

Exposure controls

Appropriate engineeringcontrols

Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard.Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independentof worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.The basic types of engineering controls are:Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.

Chemwatch: 2590

Version No: 4.1.1.1



Continued...

Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the workerand ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove or dilutean air contaminant if designed properly. The design of a ventilation system must match the particular process andchemical or contaminant in use.Employers may need to use multiple types of controls to prevent employee overexposure.

Employees exposed to confirmed human carcinogens should be authorized to do so by the employer, and workin a regulated area. Work should be undertaken in an isolated system such as a "glove-box" . Employees should wash their handsand arms upon completion of the assigned task and before engaging in other activities not associated with theisolated system. Within regulated areas, the carcinogen should be stored in sealed containers, or enclosed in a closed system,including piping systems, with any sample ports or openings closed while the carcinogens are contained within. Open-vessel systems are prohibited. Each operation should be provided with continuous local exhaust ventilation so that air movement is alwaysfrom ordinary work areas to the operation. Exhaust air should not be discharged to regulated areas, non-regulated areas or the external environmentunless decontaminated. Clean make-up air should be introduced in sufficient volume to maintain correctoperation of the local exhaust system. For maintenance and decontamination activities, authorized employees entering the area should be providedwith and required to wear clean, impervious garments, including gloves, boots and continuous-air supplied hood.Prior to removing protective garments the employee should undergo decontamination and be required to showerupon removal of the garments and hood. Except for outdoor systems, regulated areas should be maintained under negative pressure (with respect tonon-regulated areas). Local exhaust ventilation requires make-up air be supplied in equal volumes to replaced air. Laboratory hoods must be designed and maintained so as to draw air inward at an average linear face velocityof 0.76 m/sec with a minimum of 0.64 m/sec. Design and construction of the fume hood requires that insertionof any portion of the employees body, other than hands and arms, be disallowed.

Personal protection

Eye and face protection

Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles. Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A writtenpolicy document, describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace ortask. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and anaccount of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitableequipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately andremove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness orirritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly.[CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent]

Skin protection See Hand protection below

Hand protection

Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC. Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, e.g. Rubber

The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality whichvary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, theresistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to theapplication.The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective glovesandhas to be observed when making a final choice.Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Important factors in the selection of gloves include:

frequency and duration of contact,chemical resistance of glove material,glove thickness anddexterity

Select gloves tested to a relevant standard (e.g. Europe EN 374, US F739, AS/NZS 2161.1 or nationalequivalent).

When prolonged or frequently repeated contact may occur, a glove with a protection class of 5 or higher(breakthrough time greater than 240 minutes according to EN 374, AS/NZS 2161.10.1 or national equivalent) isrecommended.When only brief contact is expected, a glove with a protection class of 3 or higher (breakthrough time greaterthan 60 minutes according to EN 374, AS/NZS 2161.10.1 or national equivalent) is recommended.Contaminated gloves should be replaced.

Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly.

Application of a non-perfumed moisturiser is recommended.

Body protection See Other protection below

Other protection

Employees working with confirmed human carcinogens should be provided with, and be required to wear, clean,full body protective clothing (smocks, coveralls, or long-sleeved shirt and pants), shoe covers and glovesprior to entering the regulated area. [AS/NZS ISO 6529:2006 or national equivalent] Employees engaged in handling operations involving carcinogens should be provided with, and required to wearand use half-face filter-type respirators with filters for dusts, mists and fumes, or air purifying canisters orcartridges. A respirator affording higher levels of protection may be substituted. [AS/NZS 1715 or nationalequivalent] Emergency deluge showers and eyewash fountains, supplied with potable water, should be located near, withinsight of, and on the same level with locations where direct exposure is likely. Prior to each exit from an area containing confirmed human carcinogens, employees should be required toremove and leave protective clothing and equipment at the point of exit and at the last exit of the day, toplace used clothing and equipment in impervious containers at the point of exit for purposes ofdecontamination or disposal. The contents of such impervious containers must be identified with suitablelabels. For maintenance and decontamination activities, authorized employees entering the area should beprovided with and required to wear clean, impervious garments, including gloves, boots and continuous-airsupplied hood. Prior to removing protective garments the employee should undergo decontamination and be required toshower upon removal of the garments and hood. Provide special vacuuming facilities for clothes and suitable laundering or disposal arrangements, changeareas with dual lockering facilities and showers for use before changing into street clothes. Provide preplacement and annual medical examinations for those exposed in the workplace to 8-hr TWA of 0.1asbestos fibres/cc or greater which are >5 um in length. Keep exposure and medical records, and retain them for at least 20 years. Overalls. P.V.C. apron. Barrier cream. Skin cleansing cream. Eye wash unit.

SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION


Inhaled

The material is not thought to produce either adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract followinginhalation (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, adverse systemic effects havebeen produced following exposure of animals by at least one other route and good hygiene practice requires thatexposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting.Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronicbronchitis, may incur further disability if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained,proper screenings should be conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use ofthe material resultin excessive exposures.

Significant health risks may arise from the inhalation of airborne fibres and their passage into thelungs Inhalation of high levels of blue, brown or white asbestos may result in asbestosis, a progressivescarring of lung tissue. Further development of scar tissue (fibrosis) may occur even after thecessation of exposure.The two main forms of fatal cancer associated with inhalation of asbestos fibre are lung cancer andmesothelioma.The risk of lung cancer may be up to 92 times higher for smokers with asbestos exposure than fornon-smokers with no asbestos exposure.Similarly lung cancer risk for smokers with asbestos exposure may be up to 11 times greater than fora non smoker with asbestos exposure.It has been clearly proven that smoking increases lung cancer risk caused by asbestos exposure.The common cause of occupational mesothelioma is exposure to fibrous asbestos, especially blueor brown asbestos.Mesothelioma has no known association with tobacco smoking.

Ingestion

Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual.Whilst considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments, every exposure should bestrictly controlled. Asbestos fibres are a physical irritant and unlikely to cause any short-term (acute) poisoningbut must be regarded as harmful if swallowed.

Chemwatch: 2590

Version No: 4.1.1.1



Continued...

Skin Contact

Skin contact is not thought to have harmful health effects (as classified under EC Directives); the material maystill produce health damage following entry through wounds, lesions or abrasions.

Limited evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces inflammation of theskin in a substantial number of individuals following direct contact, and/or produces significant inflammation whenapplied to the healthy intact skin of animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present twenty-fourhours or more after the end of the exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged or repeatedexposure; this may result in a form of contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The dermatitis is often characterised byskin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which may progress to blistering (vesiculation), scaling andthickening of the epidermis. At the microscopic level there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer of theskin (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis.Repeated or prolonged skin exposure can cause the formation of asbestos warts containing asbestos fibres.Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this materialEntry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may producesystemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that anyexternal damage is suitably protected.

Eye

Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eyemay cause transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). Slightabrasive damage may also result. The material may produce foreign body irritation in certain individuals.No long-term eye effects have not been reported following exposure to asbestos. Every exposure should bestrictly controlled.

Chronic

On the basis of epidemiological data, the material is regarded as carcinogenic to humans. There is sufficient datato establish a causal association between human exposure to the material and the development of cancer.

Toxic: danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation. Serious damage (clear functional disturbance or morphological change which may have toxicological significance)is likely to be caused by repeated or prolonged exposure. As a rule the material produces, or contains a substancewhich produces severe lesions. Such damage may become apparent following direct application in subchronic (90day) toxicity studies or following sub-acute (28 day) or chronic (two-year) toxicity tests.

Long term exposure to high dust concentrations may cause changes in lung function (i.e. pneumoconiosis) causedby particles less than 0.5 micron penetrating and remaining in the lung. A prime symptom is breathlessness. Lungshadows show on X-ray.

The two main forms of fatal cancer associated with inhalation of asbestos fibre are lung cancer andmesothelioma. Repeated exposures to blue, brown or white asbestos will cause asbestosis, a lung scarringcharacterised by shortness of breath with exertion and possible progression to disability and death.

Asbestos fibres can accumulate in the lungs and can be distributed to other organs in the body. Whilst large fibresare normally quickly eliminated from the upper airways, small fibres may lodge and remain deep in the lungs foryears.

Blue, brown and white asbestos are known to cause fatal mesothelioma and fatal lung cancer, and as beingassociated with cancer of colon, rectum, vocal-cord and kidney. The risk of lung cancer may be up to 92 timeshigher for smokers with asbestos exposure than for non-smokers with no asbestos exposure. Similarly lung cancerrisk for smokers with asbestos exposure may be up to 11 times greater than for a non smoker with asbestosexposure. It has been clearly proven that smoking increases lung cancer risk caused by asbestos exposure.Fibres less than 3 microns in diameter and greater than 8 microns in length are considered carcinogenic. Thecommon cause of occupational Mesothelioma is exposure to fibrous asbestos, especially blue or brown asbestos.Mesothelioma has no known association with tobacco smoking.

Long-term (chronic) effects from swallowing minor quantities of asbestos will lead to increased risk of cancer ofthe larynx, stomach, colon, rectum and kidneys. Chronic health effects can occur at any time after initialexposure, and often long after exposure has ceased, and can take months or years (as long as 7 to 50 years) tomanifest themselves.

SECTION 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS


Product / Packaging disposal

Containers may still present a chemical hazard/ danger when empty. Return to supplier for reuse/ recycling if possible.

Otherwise:If container can not be cleaned sufficiently well to ensure that residuals do not remain or if the containercannot be used to store the same product, then puncture containers, to prevent re-use, and bury at anauthorised landfill. Where possible retain label warnings and MSDS and observe all notices pertaining to the product.

Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country, state and/ or territory. Each user mustrefer to laws operating in their area. In some areas, certain wastes must be tracked.A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate:

Reduction Reuse Recycling Disposal (if all else fails)

This material may be recycled if unused, or if it has not been contaminated so as to make it unsuitable for itsintended use. Shelf life considerations should also be applied in making decisions of this type. Note that propertiesof a material may change in use, and recycling or reuse may not always be appropriate. In most instances thesupplier of the material should be consulted.

DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains. It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal.

Eye ContactIf this product comes in contact with the eyes:

Wash out immediately with fresh running water.

Version No: 3.1.1.1


Print Date: 18/12/2013lead

Continued...

Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids byoccasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention. Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.

Skin ContactIf skin or hair contact occurs:

Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation.

Inhalation

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 initiatingfirst aid procedures. Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve maskdevice, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Transport to hospital, or doctor.

Ingestion

IF SWALLOWED, REFER FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION, WHERE POSSIBLE, WITHOUT DELAY. For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor. Urgent hospital treatment is likely to be needed. In the mean time, qualified first-aid personnel should treat the patient following observation and employingsupportive measures as indicated by the patient's condition. If the services of a medical officer or medical doctor are readily available, the patient should be placed inhis/her care and a copy of the MSDS should be provided. Further action will be the responsibility of themedical specialist. If medical attention is not available on the worksite or surroundings send the patient to a hospital together witha copy of the MSDS.

Where medical attention is not immediately available or where the patient is more than 15 minutes from ahospital or unless instructed otherwise:

INDUCE vomiting with fingers down the back of the throat, ONLY IF CONSCIOUS. Lean patient forward orplace on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.

NOTE: Wear a protective glove when inducing vomiting by mechanical means.


Treat symptomatically.Gastric acids solubilise lead and its salts and lead absorption occurs in the small bowel. Particles of less than 1 um diameter are substantially absorbed by the alveoli following inhalation. Lead is distributed to the red blood cells and has a half-life of 35 days. It is subsequently redistributed to softtissue & bone-stores or eliminated. The kidney accounts for 75% of daily lead loss; integumentary andalimentary losses account for the remainder. Neurasthenic symptoms are the most common symptoms of intoxication. Lead toxicity produces a classicmotor neuropathy. Acute encephalopathy appears infrequently in adults. Diazepam is the best drug forseizures. Whole-blood lead is the best measure of recent exposure; free erythrocyte protoporphyrin (FEP) provides thebest screening for chronic exposure. Obvious clinical symptoms occur in adults when whole-blood leadexceeds 80 ug/dL. British Anti-Lewisite is an effective antidote and enhances faecal and urinary excretion of lead. The onset ofaction of BAL is about 30 minutes and most of the chelated metal complex is excreted in 4-6 hours, primarilyin the bile. Adverse reaction appears in up to 50% of patients given BAL in doses exceeding 5 mg/kg. CaNa2EDTA has also been used alone or in concert with BAL as an antidote. D-penicillamine is the usual oralagent for mobilisation of bone lead; its use in the treatment of lead poisoning remains investigational. 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid (DMPS) and dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) are water solubleanalogues of BAL and their effectiveness is undergoing review. As a rule, stop BAL if lead decreases below50 ug/dL; stop CaNa2EDTA if blood lead decreases below 40 ug/dL or urinary lead drops below 2 mg/24hrs.

Other information

DO NOT store near acids, or oxidising agentsStore in original containers. Keep containers securely sealed. Store in a cool, dry area protected from environmental extremes. Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers. Protect containers against physical damage and check regularly for leaks. Observe manufacturer's storage and handling recommendations contained within this MSDS.

For major quantities:Consider storage in bunded areas - ensure storage areas are isolated from sources of community water(including stormwater, ground water, lakes and streams}. Ensure that accidental discharge to air or water is the subject of a contingency disaster management plan; thismay require consultation with local authorities.


Suitable containerPolyethylene or polypropylene container. Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.


Derivative of electronegative metal.Metals and their oxides or salts may react violently with chlorine trifluoride and bromine trifluoride. These trifluorides are hypergolic oxidisers. They ignites on contact (without external source of heat or ignition)with recognised fuels - contact with these materials, following an ambient or slightly elevated temperature, isoften violent and may produce ignition. The state of subdivision may affect the results. Avoid reaction with oxidising agents Avoid strong acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides and chloroformates.

MATERIAL DATA

The lead concentration in air is to be maintained so that the lead concentration in workers' blood remains below 0.060 mg/100 g of whole blood. Therecommended TLV-TWA has been derived following a review of reports of adverse effects on reproduction, blood-pressure and other end-points of toxicity. Aparticular focus was an assessment of pre-natal blood lead (PbB) levels and post-natal cognitive levels. The fact that lead is a cumulative toxicant which canproduce subtle, persistent and apparently permanent effects in the off-spring of lead exposed women is of particular concern. A current view holds that theidentification of the PbB levels, that are protective during a working lifetime, is a necessary prerequisite in the recommendation of the TLV because PbBvalues, rather than workplace air lead concentrations, are more clearly related to adverse health effects.(see Biological Exposure Index - BEI - in "Advice to Doctor".)

Exposure controls


Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard.Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independentof worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.The basic types of engineering controls are:Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the workerand ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove ordilute an air contaminant if designed properly. The design of a ventilation system must match the particularprocess and chemical or contaminant in use.Employers may need to use multiple types of controls to prevent employee overexposure.

Local exhaust ventilation is required where solids are handled as powders or crystals; even when particulatesare relatively large, a certain proportion will be powdered by mutual friction. If in spite of local exhaust an adverse concentration of the substance in air could occur, respiratory protectionshould be considered.

Such protection might consist of:(a): particle dust respirators, if necessary, combined with an absorption cartridge;(b): filter respirators with absorption cartridge or canister of the right type;(c): fresh-air hoods or masks.Air contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape" velocities which, in turn, determine the"capture velocities" of fresh circulating air required to effectively remove the contaminant.

Type of Contaminant: Air Speed:

direct spray, spray painting in shallow booths,drum filling, conveyer loading, crusher dusts,gas discharge (active generation into zone ofrapid air motion)

1-2.5 m/s (200-500 f/min.)

grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, highspeed wheel generated dusts (released at highinitial velocity into zone of very high rapid airmotion).

2.5-10 m/s (500-2000 f/min.)

Within each range the appropriate value depends on:

Lower end of the range Upper end of the range

1: Room air currents minimal or favourable tocapture

1: Disturbing room air currents

2: Contaminants of low toxicity or of nuisancevalue only.

2: Contaminants of high toxicity

3: Intermittent, low production. 3: High production, heavy use

4: Large hood or large air mass in motion 4: Small hood-local control only

Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the opening of a simple extractionpipe. Velocity generally decreases with the square of distance from the extraction point (in simple cases).Therefore the air speed at the extraction point should be adjusted, accordingly, after reference to distance fromthe contaminating source. The air velocity at the extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 4-10 m/s(800-2000 f/min) for extraction of crusher dusts generated 2 metres distant from the extraction point. Othermechanical considerations, producing performance deficits within the extraction apparatus, make it essential thattheoretical air velocities are multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are installed or used.

Personal protection


Safety glasses with side shields Chemical goggles. Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A writtenpolicy document, describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace ortask. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and anaccount of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitableequipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately andremove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness orirritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly.[CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent]


Hand protection


frequency and duration of contact,chemical resistance of glove material,glove thickness anddexterity

Inhaled

Inhalation of dusts, generated by the material, during the course of normal handling, may be harmful.The material is not thought to produce respiratory irritation (as classified by EC Directives using animal models).Nevertheless inhalation of dusts, or fumes, especially for prolonged periods, may produce respiratory discomfortand occasionally, distress.Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronicbronchitis, may incur further disability if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained,proper screenings should be conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use ofthe material result

in excessive exposures.

IngestionAccidental ingestion of the material may be harmful; animal experiments indicate that ingestion of less than 150gram may be fatal or may produce serious damage to the health of the individual.

Skin Contact

Skin contact is not thought to produce harmful health effects (as classified under EC Directives using animalmodels). Systemic harm, however, has been identified following exposure of animals by at least one other routeand the material may still produce health damage following entry through wounds, lesions or abrasions. Goodhygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupationalsetting.Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this materialEntry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may producesystemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that anyexternal damage is suitably protected.

EyeAlthough the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eyemay cause transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). Slightabrasive damage may also result. The material may produce foreign body irritation in certain individuals.

Chronic

Repeated or long-term occupational exposure is likely to produce cumulative health effects involving organs orbiochemical systems.

Harmful: danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation, in contactwith skin and if swallowed.Serious damage (clear functional disturbance or morphological change which may have toxicological significance)is likely to be caused by repeated or prolonged exposure. As a rule the material produces, or contains a substancewhich produces severe lesions. Such damage may become apparent following direct application in subchronic (90day) toxicity studies or following sub-acute (28 day) or chronic (two-year) toxicity tests.There is sufficient evidence to establish a causal relationship between human exposure to the material andsubsequent developmental toxic effects in the off-spring.Exposure to the material may cause concerns for human fertility, generally on the basis that results in animalstudies provide sufficient evidence to cause a strong suspicion of impaired fertility in the absence of toxiceffects, or evidence of impaired fertility occurring at around the same dose levels as other toxic effects, butwhich are not a secondary non-specific consequence of other toxic effects.


Excessive exposure to lead can affect the blood, the nervous system, heart, endocrine organs and the immunesystem and the digestive system. The synthesis of haemoglobin is inhibited and can result in anaemia. If leftuntreated, neuromuscular dysfunction, possible paralysis and encephalopathy (brain tissue damage) may result.Other symptoms of overexposure include joint and muscle pain, weakness of the extensor muscles (frequentlythe hand and wrist), headache, dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, blue line onthe gums, insomnia and metallic taste. High body levels produce cerebrospinal pressure, brain damage with stuporleading to coma and, in some cases, death. Early symptoms of lead poisoning ("plumbism") include anorexia andloss of weight, constipation, apathy or irritability, occasional vomiting, fatigue, headache, weakness, and ametallic taste in the mouth. Advanced poisonings are characterised by intermittent vomiting, irritability,nervousness, myalgia of the arms and legs (often with wrist and foot drop). Severe poisonings may producepersistent vomiting, ataxia, stupor or lethargy, visual disturbances progressing to optic neuritis and atrophy,hyper- tension, papilloedema, cranial nerve paralysis, delirium, convulsions and coma. Neurological effectsinclude mental retardation, seizures, cerebral palsy and marked muscular contractions that distort the spine, limbs,hips and sometimes the cranial inervated muscles (dystonia musculorum deformans). Industrial exposure hasbeen associated with irreversible kidney damage.

Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Do NOT allow product to come in contact with surface waters or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water whencleaning equipment or disposing of equipment wash-waters. Wastes resulting from use of the product must be disposed of on site or at approved waste sites.Metal-containing inorganic substances generally have negligible vapour pressure and are not expected to partition to air. Once released to surface watersand moist soils their fate depends on solubility and dissociation in water. Environmental processes (such as oxidation and the presence of acids or bases)may transform insoluble metals to more soluble ionic forms. Microbiological processes may also transform insoluble metals to more soluble forms. Suchionic species may bind to dissolved ligands or sorb to solid particles in aquatic or aqueous media. A significant proportion of dissolved/ sorbed metals willend up in sediments through the settling of suspended particles. The remaining metal ions can then be taken up by aquatic organisms.When released to dry soil most metals will exhibit limited mobility and remain in the upper layer; some will leach locally into ground water and/ or surfacewater ecosystems when soaked by rain or melt ice. Environmental processes may also be important in changing solubilities. Even though many metals show few toxic effects at physiological pHs, transformation may introduce new or magnified effects.A metal ion is considered infinitely persistent because it cannot degrade further.The current state of science does not allow for an unambiguous interpretation of various measures of bioaccumulation.The counter-ion may also create health and environmental concerns once isolated from the metal. Under normal physiological conditions the counter-ionmay be essentially insoluble and may not be bioavailable.Environmental processes may enhance bioavailability.

Lead is primarily an atmospheric pollutant that enters soil and water as fallout, a process determined by physical form and particle size. Lead in the formof alkyls has been introduced to the environment primarily from leaded petrol. These are converted to water-soluble lead compounds of high toxicity andavailability to plants. Such compounds easily leach from soil to contaminate water sources close to highways. Lead that has entered the aquatic systemfrom run-off or as fallout of insoluble precipitates is found in sediments. The biological methylation of inorganic lead by lake sediment micro-organismshas been demonstrated although its significance is not entirely clear. Other forms of soluble or insoluble lead may also enter the environment and undergobioaccumulation through a series of biological incidents.

Containers may still present a chemical hazard/ danger when empty. Return to supplier for reuse/ recycling if possible.

Otherwise:If container can not be cleaned sufficiently well to ensure that residuals do not remain or if the containercannot be used to store the same product, then puncture containers, to prevent re-use, and bury at anauthorised landfill. Where possible retain label warnings and MSDS and observe all notices pertaining to the product.

Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country, state and/ or territory. Each user mustrefer to laws operating in their area. In some areas, certain wastes must be tracked.A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate:

Reduction Reuse Recycling Disposal (if all else fails)

This material may be recycled if unused, or if it has not been contaminated so as to make it unsuitable for itsintended use. Shelf life considerations should also be applied in making decisions of this type. Note thatproperties of a material may change in use, and recycling or reuse may not always be appropriate. In mostinstances the supplier of the material should be consulted.

DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains. It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal. In all cases disposal to sewer may be subject to local laws and regulations and these should be consideredfirst. Where in doubt contact the responsible authority. Recycle wherever possible or consult manufacturer for recycling options. Consult State Land Waste Management Authority for disposal. Bury residue in an authorised landfill. Recycle containers if possible, or dispose of in an authorised landfill.

MATERIAL DATA

It is the goal of the ACGIH (and other Agencies) to recommend TLVs (or their equivalent) for all substances for which there is evidence of health effects atairborne concentrations encountered in the workplace.At this time no TLV has been established, even though this material may produce adverse health effects (as evidenced in animal experiments or clinicalexperience). Airborne concentrations must be maintained as low as is practically possible and occupational exposure must be kept to a minimum.

NOTE: The ACGIH occupational exposure standard for Particles Not Otherwise Specified (P.N.O.S) does NOT apply.Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on the eyes, nose or throat. Historically occupational exposurestandards for these irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to various airborne concentrations. Present day expectations require thatnearly every individual should be protected against even minor sensory irritation and exposure standards are established using uncertainty factors or safetyfactors of 5 to 10 or more. On occasion animal no-observable-effect-levels (NOEL) are used to determine these limits where human results are unavailable.An additional approach, typically used by the TLV committee (USA) in determining respiratory standards for this group of chemicals, has been to assignceiling values (TLV C) to rapidly acting irritants and to assign short-term exposure limits (TLV STELs) when the weight of evidence from irritation,bioaccumulation and other endpoints combine to warrant such a limit. In contrast the MAK Commission (Germany) uses a five-category system based onintensive odour, local irritation, and elimination half-life. However this system is being replaced to be consistent with the European Union (EU) ScientificCommittee for Occupational Exposure Limits (SCOEL); this is more closely allied to that of the USA.OSHA (USA) concluded that exposure to sensory irritants can:

cause inflammation cause increased susceptibility to other irritants and infectious agents lead to permanent injury or dysfunction permit greater absorption of hazardous substances and acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus increasing the risk of overexposure.

Exposure controls


Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard.Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independentof worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.The basic types of engineering controls are:Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the workerand ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove ordilute an air contaminant if designed properly. The design of a ventilation system must match the particularprocess and chemical or contaminant in use.

Chemwatch: 07-0897

Version No: 2.1.1.1



Continued...

Employers may need to use multiple types of controls to prevent employee overexposure.

Local exhaust ventilation is required where solids are handled as powders or crystals; even when particulatesare relatively large, a certain proportion will be powdered by mutual friction. If in spite of local exhaust an adverse concentration of the substance in air could occur, respiratory protectionshould be considered.

Such protection might consist of:(a): particle dust respirators, if necessary, combined with an absorption cartridge;(b): filter respirators with absorption cartridge or canister of the right type;(c): fresh-air hoods or masks.Air contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape" velocities which, in turn, determine the"capture velocities" of fresh circulating air required to effectively remove the contaminant.

Type of Contaminant: Air Speed:

direct spray, spray painting in shallow booths,drum filling, conveyer loading, crusher dusts,gas discharge (active generation into zone ofrapid air motion)

1-2.5 m/s (200-500 f/min.)

grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, highspeed wheel generated dusts (released at highinitial velocity into zone of very high rapid airmotion).

2.5-10 m/s (500-2000 f/min.)

Within each range the appropriate value depends on:

Lower end of the range Upper end of the range

1: Room air currents minimal or favourable tocapture

1: Disturbing room air currents

2: Contaminants of low toxicity or of nuisancevalue only.

2: Contaminants of high toxicity

3: Intermittent, low production. 3: High production, heavy use

4: Large hood or large air mass in motion 4: Small hood-local control only

Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the opening of a simple extraction pipe.Velocity generally decreases with the square of distance from the extraction point (in simple cases). Therefore theair speed at the extraction point should be adjusted, accordingly, after reference to distance from thecontaminating source. The air velocity at the extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 4-10 m/s(800-2000 f/min) for extraction of crusher dusts generated 2 metres distant from the extraction point. Othermechanical considerations, producing performance deficits within the extraction apparatus, make it essential thattheoretical air velocities are multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are installed or used.

Personal protection


Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles. Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A writtenpolicy document, describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace ortask. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and anaccount of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitableequipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately andremove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness orirritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly.[CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent]

Inhaled

Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronicbronchitis, may incur further disability if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained,proper screenings should be conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use ofthe material resultin excessive exposures.

Inhalation of freshly formed metal oxide particles sized below 1.5 microns and generally between 0.02 to 0.05microns may result in "metal fume fever". Symptoms may be delayed for up to 12 hours and begin with thesudden onset of thirst, and a sweet, metallic or foul taste in the mouth. Other symptoms include upper respiratorytract irritation accompanied by coughing and a dryness of the mucous membranes, lassitude and a generalisedfeeling of malaise. Mild to severe headache, nausea, occasional vomiting, fever or chills, exaggerated mentalactivity, profuse sweating, diarrhoea, excessive urination and prostration may also occur. Tolerance to the fumesdevelops rapidly, but is quickly lost. All symptoms usually subside within 24-36 hours following removal fromexposure.

Ingestion Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual.

Skin Contact

The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified byEC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to aminimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting.Entry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may producesystemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that anyexternal damage is suitably protected.

Eye

Limited evidence exists, or practical experience suggests, that the material may cause eye irritation in asubstantial number of individuals and/or is expected to produce significant ocular lesions which are presenttwenty-four hours or more after instillation into the eye(s) of experimental animals. Repeated or prolonged eyecontact may cause inflammation characterised by temporary redness (similar to windburn) of the conjunctiva(conjunctivitis); temporary impairment of vision and/or other transient eye damage/ulceration may occur.

Chronic

Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce cumulative healtheffects involving organs or biochemical systems.
