Indication of immediate
medical attention and special
treatment needed
General information
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. Do NOT give epinephrine (adrenaline). Get medical attention if symptoms persist.
For liquid contact or direct spray effects, warm area gradually and get medical attention if there is
evidence of tissue damage. Flush area with plenty of water. Treat as frostbite.
For liquid contact or direct spray effects, immediately flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes. Call
a physician if frostbite occurs.
Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately.
Direct contact with eyes may cause temporary irritation.
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.
Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
protect themselves.

Contents under pressure. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. When exposed
to extreme heat or hot surfaces, vapors may decompose to harmful or fatal corrosive gases such
as hydrogen fluoride.
Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without
risk. Containers should be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure build up.

Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Environmental precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
low areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Do not touch damaged containers or
spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local
authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection,
see section 8 of the SDS.
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Stop the flow of material, if this is
absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or
onto the ground.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing
or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke
expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. Use caution around
energized equipment. The metal container will conduct electricity if it contacts a live source. This
may result in injury to the user from electrical shock and/or flash fire. Avoid breathing gas. Avoid
breathing mist or vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Avoid prolonged
exposure. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Observe good industrial hygiene practices. For product usage instructions, please see the product
label.

considerations
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Wear protective gloves such as: Neoprene.Impervious gloves. Cold insulating gloves.
Wear suitable protective clothing.
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Air monitoring is needed to
determine actual employee exposure levels.
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
When using do not smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing
after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work
clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
