3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
- Health Hazards: Toxic in contact with skin and if swallowed. Causes burns. Harmful, may cause damage to lung if swallowed. Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness.
- Physical and Chemical Hazards: Static discharge. Product can accumulate static charges which can cause an incendiary electrical discharge.
- Fire and Explosion Hazards: Low hazard. Material can form flammable mixtures or can burn only on heating to temperatures at or above the flash point.
- Environmental Hazards: Toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse affect in the aquatic environment.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
- Eyes: Immediately wash with fresh water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention if irritation persists.
- Skin: Remove contaminated clothing as soon as possible; this will be a fire hazard. Wash exposed. Skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a physician. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use. Badly contaminated leather shoes should be discarded.
- Inhalation: In event of over-exposure remove individual to fresh air, taking steps necessary to protect the rescuer. If unconscious but breathing, place in recovery position. If breathing stops, administer artificial respiration. Seek medical assistance.
- Ingestion: If this material is swallowed DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If vomiting begins, lower victim's head in an effort to prevent vomit from entering lungs. IMMEDIATILY SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. If unconscious do not attempt to administer fluids, place in recovery position and protect airway.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
- Extinguishing media: Use water spray, dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide. NEVER USE WATER IN A JET.
- Special fire fighting procedure: Wear impervious clothing and self contained breathing apparatus. Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool. If a leak or spill has not ignited use water spray to disperse the vapours and to provide protection for personnel attempting to stop a leak. Take care not to spread the fire with water
- Fire and explosion hazards: Products of combustion may contain carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other toxic materials. Do not enter enclosed or confined space without proper protective equipment including respiratory protection. Solvent vapours are an explosion hazard. Keep material away from sources of ignition. Closed containers may explode from vapour pressure when exposed to extreme heat. Vapours may travel great distances and ignite and flashback to source.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Remove all sources of ignition. Ensure adequate ventilation. Shut off source and contain with sand or earth to prevent entry to water sources and sewers. Contain spill immediately in smallest area possible. Recover as much of the product itself as possible by such method as vacuuming, using an approved vacuum pump powered by a flame proof motor, followed by soaking up of residual fluids by use of absorbent materials. Remove contaminated items including contaminated soil and place in proper containers for disposal. Avoid washing, draining or directing material to sewers.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handle in a well ventilated area or provide efficient exhaust ventilation. Wear long sleeved, chemical resistant gloves, and also safety glasses if there is a risk of splashing. Avoid prolonged contact with the skin. No smoking , no open flames. Store in properly designed tanks or approved tightly closed containers in cool, well ventilated situations away from sources of ignition. Protect from static discharges. All hazard precautions given here must be applied to handling of empty containers
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/ PERSONAL PROTECTION

- Respiratory Protection: Unprotected inhalation of vapour should be avoided. Self contained breathing apparatus or other suitable protection must be worn if TLV levels are exceeded. Provide adequate ventilation.
- Eye protection: Goggles to BSEN 166 are required when exposed to vapour or when splashing is possible. Eye wash should be provided.
- Skin protection: Unprotected exposure by skin contact to liquid or vapour should be avoided. Protective clothing consisting of impervious gloves (nitrile rubber or PVC) and coveralls should be used when necessary to avoid skin contact.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Primary route of exposure/entry:
- Skin/Eye: Causes burns. Vapour may irritate the eyes. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may lead to burns and blisters, cause dermatitis and poisoning by absorption through skin.
- Ingestion: Risk of burns to mouth, throat and stomach. Toxic effects may result including headaches dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea. If material enters the system in sufficient quantities, in severe cases, this can lead to respiratory failure, collapse and death
- Inhalation: Vapours may irritate the respiratory tract and may lead to headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and unconsciousness. High vapour concentrations are anaesthetic and may have other central nervous system effects including death.
