SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1 Description of first aid measures
Inhalation:
difficult or irregular, administer oxygen; if respiratory arrest occurs, start artificial respiration by trained personnel. Loosen tight clothing such as
a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention immediately.
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do, after the first 5 .
minutes and continue rinsing, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. If irritation persists obtain medical attention, preferably from an
ophthalmologist.
Skin:
clothing and shoes thoroughly before reuse. If irritation persists, seek prompt medical attention.
Ingestion:
medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.

SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Extinguishable media
Suitable methods of extinction:
Unsuitable methods of extinction:
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Solutions containing glycol ethers in water can form flammable vapors with air if heated sufficiently. Closed containers may explode due to the
build-up of pressure when exposed to extreme heat. During emergency conditions overexposure to decomposition products may cause a health
hazard. Symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Obtain medical attention.
5.3 Advice for firefighters
Full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent
pressure build-up and possible autoignition or explosion when exposed to extreme heat. If possible, firefighters should control run-off water to
prevent environmental contamination.
Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.
None known
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Wear appropriate protective clothing designated in Section 8. Ventilate the area.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Avoid dispersal of spilled material or run-off and prevent contact with soil and entry into drains, sewers or waterways.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Cover drains and contain spill. Cover with a large quantity of inert absorbent. Shovel or sweep up product and into place into an approved
container for proper disposal. Observe possible material restrictions (section 7.2 and 10.5). Clean contaminated area with soap and water.
6.4 Reference to other sections
For indications about waste treatment, see section 13.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Observe label precautions. Wear all appropriate protective equipment specified in Section 8. Keep containers closed when not in use.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Solutions containing glycol ethers in water can form flammable vapors with air if heated sufficiently.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10.5), food and drink. Transfer only to approved
containers having correct labeling. Protect container against physical damage. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and
kept upright to prevent leakage. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty as they contain product residues. Use appropriate
containment to avoid environmental contamination. Ventilate closed areas. Do not take internally. Keep out of reach of children.
7.3 Specific end uses
Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1.2, no other specific uses are stipulated.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

Respiratory Protection:
assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-faced respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK
(EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air
respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Environmental exposure controls:
None required with normal use. Always use an approved respirator when vapor/aerosols are generated. Where risk
Do not empty into drains.
