FIRST-AID MEASURES SKIN CONTACT:
NIPPON CHEMICAL INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. Page 2 5 In case of contact, immediately wash with soap or mild detergent and large amount of water until no evidence of chemical remains (at least 15-20 minutes). Get medical attention, if needed. EYE CONTACT: In case of contact, immediately rinse the eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of chemical remains. Get medical attention immediately. INGESTION: If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to help prevent aspiration. Get medical attention, if needed. 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Carbon dioxide, regular dry chemical, regular form, plenty of water SPECIFIC HAZARDS: In case of fire, large amount of phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) aerosol are emitted. PROTECTION FIRE-FIGHTERS: Firefighters should wear full body suit, and use air line respirator or breathing apparatus. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear eye/face protection. Wash imm ediately after handling. EN VIRON MENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Do not wash away into waterway. METHODS FOR CLEANING UP: Small liquid spills: Absorb with sander other noncombustible material. Collect spilled material in appropriate container for disposal. Large spills: Dike for later disposal. Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay up wind and keep out of low areas. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING: TECHNICAL MEASURES: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear eye/face protection. Wash immediately after handling. PRECAUTIONS: Avoid heating and mixing with bases in order to prevent evolution of flammable hydrogen sulfide gas. SAFE HANDLING ADVICE: Wear proper protective equipment (gloves, safety
NIPPON CHEMICAL INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. Page 3 5 STORAGE: TECHNICAL MEASURES: STORAGE CONDITIONS: INCOMPATIBLE PRODUCTS: PACKAGING MATERIALS: spectacles, etc.) during use. Keep away sunlight. Avoid storing at elevated temperature. Keep container tightly closed. Store in cool and dark location. Metals and bases Resins and plastics 8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION ENGINEERING MEASURES: Provide local exhaust ventilation system. Ventilation equipment should be explosion-resistant if explosive concentrations of material are present. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Under conditions of frequent use or heavy exposure, respiratory protection may be needed. Respiratory protection is ranked in order from minimum to maximum. Consider warning properties before use. Any chemical cartridge respirator with organic vapor cartridge(s) and any chemical cartridge expiratory with a full-face piece and organic vapor cartridge(s) should be employed. HAND PROTECTION: Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. EYE PROTECTION: Wear splash resistant safety goggles with a face shield. Provide an emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the immediate work area. SKIN AND BODY PROTECTION: Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing and gloves. HYGIENE MEASURES: Any air-purifying respirator with a full-face piece and an organic vapor canister. For Unknown Concentrations or Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health: Any supplied-air respirator with full-face piece and operated in a pressure demand or other positive-pressure mode in combination with a separate escape supply. Any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full-face piece. 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES PHYSICAL STATE: FORM: COLOUR: ODOR: Viscous liquid at room temperature Light yellow No odor or slight hydrogen sulfide odor
