SPECIAL INDICATION OF HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Contact with combustible material may cause fire. Toxic if swallowed. Very toxic to aquatic organisms.

AFTER INHALATION
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing becomes difficult, Call a physician

AFTER SKIN CONTACT
In case of skin contact, flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Call a physician.

AFTER INGESTION
If swallowed, wash out mouth with water provided person is conscious. Call a physician.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Suitable: carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, or appropriate foams.

SPECIAL RISKS
Specific hazard(s): Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions. Contact with other material may cause fire. May accelerate combustion.

SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIREFIGHTERS
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes.

PERSONAL PRECAUTION PROCEDURES TO BE FOLLOWED IN CASE OF LEAK OR SPILL EVACUATE AREA.

PROCEDURE(S) OF PERSONAL PRECAUTION(S)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, rubber boots, and heavy rubber gloves.

METHODS FOR CLEANING UP

HANDLING
Directions for Safe Handling: Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing.

STORAGE
Conditions of Storage: Keep tightly closed. Keep away from combustible materials, heat, sparks, and open flame.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Use only in a chemical fume hood. Safety shower and eye bath.

GENERAL HYGIENE MEASURES
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove and wash contaminated clothing promptly. Discard contaminated shoes.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Respiratory Protection: Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face particle respirator type N100 (US) or type P3 (EN 143) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator.
Hand Protection: Compatible chemical-resistant gloves.
