FIRST AID MEASURES
General:
In case of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air, keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is
irregular or has stopped, administer artificial respiration. Give
nothing by mouth. If unconscious place in recovery position and seek
medical advice
Eye Contact:
Remove contact lenses. Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for
at least ten minutes, holding the eyes apart, and seek medical advice.
Skin Contact:
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water
or use a proprietary skin cleanser. Do NOT use solvent or thinners.
Ingestion:
If accidentally swallowed obtain immediate medical attention. Keep at
rest. Do not induce vomiting.
5.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
----------------------
Extinguishing media: Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the
surrounding fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: None known.
Recommendations: Fire will produce dense black smoke containing
hazardous products of combustion (see section 10). Exposure to
decomposition products may be a hazard to health. Appropriate self
contained breathing apparatus may be required. Cool closed containers
exposed to fire with water spray. Do not allow water run-off from fire
fighting to enter drains or water courses.
5.
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
---------------------------
Exclude sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Exclude not
essential personnel. Avoid breathing vapours. Refer to protective
measures listed in section 7 and 8. Contain the spillage with non
combustible absorbent materials eg. Sand, earth, vermiculite,
diatomaceous earth and place in a suitable container for disposal in
accordance with the waste regulations (see section13). Do not allow to
enter drains or watercourses. Clean, preferably with detergent: avoid
use of solvents. If the product enters drains or sewers, immediately
contact the local water company; in case of contamination of streams,
rivers or lakes, the relevant environment agency.
5.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Keep the container tightly closed. Exclude sources of heat, sparks and
open flame. Non sparking tools should be used.
Avoid skin and eye contact. Avoid the inhalation of vapour and mist.
For Occupational Exposure Control measures, see section 8.
Never use pressure to empty: the container is not a pressure vessel.
Always use containers the same as the supply container.
(The Manual Handling Operations Regulations may apply to the handling
of containers of this product)
Storage
Observe label precautions. Store between 5deg and 25deg C in a dry,
well ventilated place away from sources of heat, ignition or direct
sunlight.
No smoking. Prevent unauthorised access. Containers which are opened
should be properly resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Store separately from oxidising agents and strongly alkaline or acidic
materials.
5.
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure controls
Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practical, this should
be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general
extraction. If these are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of
solvent vapour and/or particulates below the relevant occupational
Exposure Limit Values, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

workplace.

Occupational Exposure Controls
------------------------------
All personal protective equipment, including respiratory protective
equipment, used to control exposure to hazardous substances must be
selected to meet the requirements of the COSHH Regulations.
Respiratory Protection.
Air fed respiratory equipment should be worn when this product is
sprayed if the exposure of the sprayer or other people nearby cannot
be controlled below the occupational Exposure Limit Values and
engineering controls and methods cannot reasonably be improved.
Hand Protection.
When skin exposure may occur, advice should be sought from glove
suppliers on appropriate types and usage times for this product. The
instructions and information provided by the glove supplier on use,
storage, maintenance and replacement, must be followed.
Barrier creams may help to protect exposed skin, but are not
substitutes for full physical protection. They should not be applied
once exposure has occurred.
Eye Protection.
Eye protection designed to protect against liquid splashes should be
worn.
Skin Protection.
Cotton or cotton/synthetic overalls or coveralls are normally
suitable. Grossly contaminated clothing should be removed and the skin
washed with soap and water or a proprietary skin cleanser.
Regular skin inspection of users of this product is recommended.
Always wash your hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the
toilet.
Environmental exposure control.
See section 12 for detailed information.

PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES.
Physical state: Viscous Liquid
Flash Point: non flammable
Specific Gravity: 1.2 – 1.5
Vapour density: n/a
Lower explosion limit: n/a
Solubility in water: miscible
5.
STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
------------------------
Stable under normal storage and handling conditions (see section 7).
In a fire, hazardous decomposition products such as smoke, carbon
monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen may be produced. Keep away from
oxidising agent and strongly alkaline or acidic materials to prevent
the possibility of exothermic reactions.
11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION.
There are no data available on the mixture itself. The mixture has
been assessed following the conventional method of the Dangerous
Preparations Directive 1999/45/EC and classified for toxicological
hazards accordingly. See Sections 2 and 3 for details.
Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the
stated occupational exposure limit 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 and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular
weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the
skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with the mixture may cause removal
of natural fat from the skin, resulting in non-allergic contact
dermatitis and absorption through the skin.
If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause irritation and
reversible damage.
Ingestion may cause nausea, diarrhoea and vomiting.
This takes into account, where known, delayed and immediate effects
and also chronic effects of components from short-term and long-term
exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye
contact.
