First-aid measures Inhalation Skin contact Eye contact Ingestion Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed General information 5. Fire-fighting measures The components are not hazardous or are below required disclosure limits. Move to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist. Wash off with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Rinse with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Rinse mouth. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Coughing. Dust may irritate the eyes and the respiratory system. Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.

2 Unsuitable extinguishing media Specific hazards arising from the chemical Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Fire-fighting equipment/instructions 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Environmental precautions 7. Handling and storage None known. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see Section 8 of the SDS. Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal. Do not vacuum clean unless vacuum cleaners are equipped with HEPA filter. For waste disposal, see Section 13 of the SDS. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Precautions for safe handling Keep formation of airborne dusts to a minimum. Do not breathe dust. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Occupational exposure limits Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. US.

No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles). Skin protection Hand protection Other Respiratory protection Thermal hazards General hygiene considerations Wear protective gloves. Wear suitable protective clothing. Use a particulate filter respirator for particulate concentrations exceeding the Occupational Exposure Limit. Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants Version #: 01 Revision date: - Issue date: 04-December / 6
