4.1. Description of first aid measures
Move victim to fresh air. Keep victim warm and quiet.
Call 911 or emergency medical service if deemed necessary.
Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes.
In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water.
Wash skin with soap and water.
In case of burns, immediately cool affected skin for as long as possible with cold water. Do
not remove clothing if adhering to skin.
Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions
to protect themselves.
Remove to fresh air, keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, give
artificial respiration. If unconscious place in the recovery position and obtain immediate
medical attention. Give nothing by mouth.
Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes before rinsing. Promptly wash eyes
with plenty of water while lifting the eye lids. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Clothing frozen to the skin should
be thawed before being removed. In case of contact with liquefied gas, thaw frosted parts
with lukewarm water.
If swallowed obtain immediate medical attention. Keep at rest. Do NOT induce vomiting.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Exposure to solvent vapor concentrations from the component solvents in excess of the
stated occupational exposure limits may result in adverse health effects such as mucous
membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys, liver and
central nervous system. Symptoms include headache, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, muscular
weakness, drowsiness and in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from
the skin resulting in dryness, irritation and possible non-allergic contact dermatitis. Solvents
may also be absorbed through the skin. Splashes of liquid in the eyes may cause irritation
and soreness with possible reversible damage. See section 2 for further details.
Causes serious eye irritation.
Causes mild skin irritation. (Not adopted by US OSHA)

5. Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing media; alcohol resistant foam, CO2, powder, water spray.
Do not use; water jet.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous decomposition: High temperatures and fires may produce such toxic substances as carbon monoxide and
carbon dioxide.
Keep away from heat / sparks / open flames / hot surfaces - No smoking.
Use explosion-proof electrical / ventilating / light / equipment.
Avoid breathing dust / fume / gas / mist / vapors / spray.
5.3. Advice for fire-fighters
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Structural firefighters' protective clothing will only provide limited protection.
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames.
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air.
Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back.
Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers,
basements, tanks).
Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers.Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.
Containers may explode when heated.
Many liquids are lighter than water.
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes.
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation.
Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.
6. Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Water spray may reduce vapor; but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Do not allow spills to enter drains or watercourses.
Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet. Promptly remove
soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area for at least 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions.
Keep unauthorized personnel away.
Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed spaces before entering.

If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit they must use the
appropriate, certified respirators.
Safety glasses with side shields
Wear overalls to keep skin contact to a minimum. Impervious rubber gloves
Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the
use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these are not sufficient to
maintain concentrations of particulates and any vapor below occupational exposure limits
suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or
using toilet. Promptly remove soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse.
