2 Response Storage Disposal Hazard(s) not otherwise classified (HNOC) Supplemental information Absorb spillage to prevent material damage. IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. IF INHALED: If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Store in corrosive resistant container with a resistant inner liner. Dispose of contents/container in accordance with local/regional/national/international regulations. None known. None. 3.

Refer to additional sections of this SDS for our assessment of the potential hazards of this formulation. Move to fresh air. Seek medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. Seek medical attention. Immediately flush eye(s) with plenty of water. Seek medical attention. First rinse mouth with water. Immediately give 1-2 glasses of water, if victim is fully conscious. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention. Sensitization. Irritant effects. Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. None. Oxides of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulphur evolved in fire. Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure demand breathing apparatus, protective clothing and face mask. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. Prevent spillage and fire-fighting water from entering in public sewers or the immediate environment. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Environmental precautions Wear protective clothing, gloves and safety goggles. Contain and absorb on absorbent material (e.g. sand). Remove small spills with plenty of water. Prevent from entering sewers or the immediate environment. Accidental release of large quantities into the aquatic environment may harm aquatic organisms. Page: 2 / 8
