Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed General information Treat symptomatically. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. 5. Fire-fighting measures Suitable extinguishing media Use extinguishing agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Unsuitable extinguishing media Specific hazards arising from the chemical Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Fire fighting equipment/instructions Specific methods General fire hazards 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. special precautions. This product is miscible in water. Containment of this material should not be necessary. Flush with water. Environmental precautions Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. special environmental precautions required. 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Avoid prolonged exposure. special precautions required. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Store in original tightly closed container. Do not allow material to freeze. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Occupational exposure limits exposure limits noted for ingredient(s). Biological limit values Appropriate engineering controls 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 t normally needed. Wear suitable protective clothing. personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. 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. 9. Physical and chemical properties Appearance Cloudy. Physical state Liquid. Form Aqueous solution. 2 / 6
