FIR No.: 187660 SDS US Issue Date: 09-21-2015 Version: 01 1 / 6 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed Direct contact with eyes may cause temporary irritation. Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treat symptomatically. General information Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. 5. Fire-fighting measures Suitable extinguishing media Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Unsuitable extinguishing media Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. Specific hazards arising from the chemical During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Upon decomposition, this product emits carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and/or low molecular weight hydrocarbons. Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Fire fighting equipment/instructions Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Specific methods Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. General fire hazards No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Keep unnecessary personnel away. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid inhalation of vapors or mists. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up The product is immiscible with water and will spread on the water surface. Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. Environmental precautions Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Avoid prolonged exposure. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. See Section 8 of the SDS for Personal Protective Equipment. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store in original tightly closed container. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Occupational exposure limits No exposure limits noted for ingredient(s). Biological limit values No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Appropriate engineering controls Use adequate ventilation to control airborne concentrations below the exposure limits/guidelines. If user operations generate a vapor, dust and/or mist, use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below the recommended exposure limits/guidelines. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles). Skin protection Hand protection Suitable chemical protective gloves should be worn when the potential exists for prolonged or repeated skin exposure. The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Use protective gloves made of: Nitrile. Neoprene. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Other Wear suitable protective clothing. Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing if applicable. FIR No.: 187660 SDS US Issue Date: 09-21-2015 Version: 01 2 / 6 Respiratory protection If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, an approved respirator must be worn. Respirator selection, use and maintenance should be in accordance with the requirements of OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard 29 CFR 1910.134 and/or Canadian Standard CSA Z94.4. Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary. General hygiene considerations Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking.
