Note to physicians
Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water.
Remove all sources of ignition. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s)
involved, take precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. Use
personal protective equipment as required. See section 8 for more information.
May cause redness and tearing of the eyes. May cause skin irritation in susceptible
persons.
Treat symptomatically.

Sensitivity to mechanical impact
Sensitivity to static discharge
Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Water spray. Alcohol resistant foam.
CAUTION: Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient.
Risk of ignition. Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition.
In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray. Fire residues and contaminated fire
extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
None.
Yes.
Special protective equipment for
fire-fighters
Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full firefighting turnout
gear. Use personal protection equipment.

Methods for containment
Methods for cleaning up
Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Use personal protective equipment as required. See
section 8 for more information. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Ensure adequate
ventilation. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. ELIMINATE all ignition sources
(no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Pay attention to flashback. Take
precautionary measures against static discharges. All equipment used when handling the
product must be grounded. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
Ventilate the area.
Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. A vapor
suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Dike far ahead of spill to collect runoff
water. Keep out of drains, sewers, ditches and waterways. Absorb with earth, sand or other
non-combustible material and transfer to containers for later disposal.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Dam up. Soak up with inert
absorbent material. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers.
