4.1. Description of first aid measures
General information
Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Inhalation
Move into fresh air and keep at rest. Perform artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. Place unconscious person on the side in the
recovery position and ensure breathing can take place.
Ingestion
Get medical attention immediately! DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING!
Skin contact
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash skin with soap and water. DO NOT use solvents or thinners
Eye contact
Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes before rinsing. Immediately flush with plenty of water or eyewash solution for up to 10
minutes. Consult a physician for specific advice.

General information
If adverse symptoms develop as described the casualty should be transferred to hospital as soon as possible.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
No specific first aid measures noted.
SECTION 5: FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
5.1. Extinguishing media
Extinguishing media
Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder or water fog. Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread
the fire.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards
In case of fire, toxic gases may be formed (COx, NOx). Fire creates: Acrid smoke/fumes of: Carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Nitrous gases (NOx).
Self contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid inhalation of vapours and contact with skin and eyes. Ensure suitable personal protection (including respiratory protection) during
removal of spillages in a confined area.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter drains, sewers or watercourses. Contain spillages with sand, earth or any suitable adsorbent material. Spillages or
uncontrolled discharges into watercourses must be IMMEDIATELY alerted to the Environmental Agency or other appropriate regulatory body.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Collect with absorbent, non-combustible material into suitable containers. Collect spillage in containers, seal securely and deliver for
disposal according to local regulations.
6.4. Reference to other sections
For personal protection, see section 8.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Read and follow manufacturer's recommendations. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Risk of vapour concentration on the floor and in low-lying
areas. Use explosion proof electric equipment. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using the product. Avoid inhalation of vapours/spray and
contact with skin and eyes. The Manual Handling Operations Regulations may apply to the handling of containers of this product. To assist
employers, the following method of calculating the weight for any pack size is given. Take the pack size volume in litres and multiply this
figure by the specific gravity value given in section 9. This will give the net weight of the coating in kilograms. Allowance will then have to be
made for the immediate packaging to give an approximate gross weight.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep containers tightly closed. Keep upright. Protect from light, including direct sunrays. Store in closed original container at temperatures
between 5°C and 25°C. Store separated from: Oxidising material. Acids. Alkalis.
Storage Class
Flammable liquid storage. The storage and use of this product is subject to the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres
Regulations (DSEAR). The requirements are given in the HSE Approved Code of Practice and Guidance, Storage od Danderous
Substances: DSEAR. Up to 250 litres of liquids with a flashpoint above 32C but below 55C may be kept in a workroom provided they are
kept in closed containers in a marked, fire-resisting cupboard or bin. Larger quantities must be kept in a separate , marked storeroom
conforming to the structural requirements contained in the HSE guidance note Storage of Flammable Liquids in Containers.
7.3. Specific end use(s)
The identified uses for this product are detailed in Section 1.2.

Process conditions
Use engineering controls to reduce air contamination to permissible exposure level.
Engineering measures
Provide adequate ventilation, including appropriate local extraction, to ensure that the defined occupational exposure limit is not exceeded.
Respiratory equipment
No specific recommendation made, but respiratory protection must be used if the general level exceeds the recommended occupational
exposure limit. In case of inadequate ventilation, use air-supplied full-mask.
Hand protection
Wear protective gloves. The most suitable glove must be chosen in consultation with the gloves supplier, who can inform about the
breakthrough time of the glove material. Barrier cream applied before work may make it easier to clean the skin after exposure, but does not
prevent absorption through the skin.
Eye protection
Wear splash-proof eye goggles to prevent any possibility of eye contact.
Hygiene measures
Wash promptly with soap & water if skin becomes contaminated. Remove contaminated clothing and wash the skin thoroughly with soap and
water after work.
