Eye contact

Flush with large amounts of water. Remove contact lenses if easy to do. Continue rinsing. If signs/symptoms persist, get
medical attention.

Skin contact

Wash with soap and water. If signs/symptoms develop, get medical attention.

Inhalation

Remove person to fresh air. If you feel unwell, get medical attention.

4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment required

Not applicable

SECTION 5: Fire-fighting measures

5.1. Extinguishing media

In case of fire: Use a fire fighting agent suitable for flammable liquids or gases such as dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode.

Hazardous Decomposition or By-Products

Substance Condition

Formaldehyde During combustion.
Carbon monoxide. During combustion.
Carbon dioxide. During combustion.
Irritant vapours or gases. During combustion.

5.3. Advice for fire-fighters

Water may not effectively extinguish fire; however, it should be used to keep fire-exposed containers and surfaces cool and
prevent explosive rupture.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or exhaust vapours, in accordance with
good industrial hygiene practice. Warning: A motor could be an ignition source and could cause flammable gases or vapours
in the spill area to burn or explode.

6.2. Environmental precautions

Avoid release to the environment.

children. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not eat, drink or
smoke when using this product. Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with oxidising agents (eg. chlorine, chromic
acid etc.)

7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities
