Section 4 -- FIRST AID MEASURES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If INHALED: If overcome by exposure, remove victim to fresh air
immediately. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as
needed. Obtain emergency medical attention. Prompt
action is essential.
If on SKIN: Immediately flush with large amounts of water for at least
15 minutes. Get prompt medical attention.
If in EYES: Flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes.
Get medical attention.
If SWALLOWED: If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Only induce
vomiting at the instruction of a physician. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
=============================================================================
Section 5 -- FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXTINGUSING MEDIA
Foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or water fog.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus
(SCBA) and other protective clothing. Hazardous decomposition products
possible (see Section 10).
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Flammable - ambient flash point.
Vapors heavier than air and may travel along the ground or to low spots
at considerable distances to a source of ignition resulting in potential
flashback. Burning liquid may float on water. Heat may build up
pressure and rupture containers.
=============================================================================
Section 6 -- ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Remove all
sources of ignition. Use absorbent materials to prevent footing hazard
and to contain. Ventilate area with natural or explosion-proof, forced
air ventilation. Avoid flushing into sewers, drains, waterways, and soil.
Wear protective clothing and respiratory protection during cleanup.
=============================================================================
Section 7 -- HANDLING AND STORAGE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: Keep container closed and
upright when not in use. Do not store near heat, sparks, or open flames.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin or
clothing. Empty containers may contain residues; treat as if full and
observe all products precautions. Do not reuse empty containers.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
