First-aid Measures After Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 60 minutes. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. First-aid Measures After Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing for at least 60 minutes. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
First-aid Measures After Ingestion: Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Do NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms/Injuries: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
Symptoms/Injuries After Inhalation: Contact may cause immediate severe irritation progressing quickly to chemical burns.
Symptoms/Injuries After Skin Contact: Corrosive. Causes burns. Symptoms may include: Redness, pain, swelling, itching, burning, dryness, and dermatitis.
Symptoms/Injuries After Eye Contact: Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may include: Redness, pain, swelling, itching, burning, tearing, and blurred vision. Causes permanent damage to the cornea, iris, or conjunctiva.
Symptoms/Injuries After Ingestion: May cause burns or irritation of the linings of the mouth, throat, and gastrointestinal tract.
Chronic Symptoms: None expected under normal conditions of use.
Indication of Any Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment Needed If exposed or concerned, get medical advice and attention.
SECTION 5: FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, alcohol foam, carbon dioxide.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Do not use a heavy water stream. Use of heavy stream of water may spread fire.
Special Hazards Arising From the Substance or Mixture
Fire Hazard: Not flammable.
Explosion Hazard: Product is not explosive, however in contact with incompatibilities may release explosive hydrogen gas.
Reactivity: May be corrosive to metals.
Advice for Firefighters
Precautionary Measures Fire: Exercise caution when fighting any chemical fire. Under fire conditions, hazardous fumes will be present.
Firefighting Instructions: Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers.
Protection During Firefighting: Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection.
Other Information: Do not allow the product to be released into the environment.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures
General Measures: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe vapor, mist or spray.
For Non-emergency Personnel
Protective Equipment: Use appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE).
Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Keep upwind.
For Emergency Responders
Protective Equipment: Equip cleanup crew with proper protection.
Emergency Procedures: Upon arrival at the scene, a first responder is expected to recognize the presence of dangerous goods, protect oneself and the public, secure the area, and call for the assistance of trained personnel as soon as conditions permit.
Environmental Precautions Avoid release to the environment.
Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up
For Containment: Contain any spills with dikes or absorbents to prevent migration and entry into sewers or streams.
Methods for Cleaning Up: Cautiously neutralize spilled liquid. Clean up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Small quantities of liquid spill: take up in non-combustible absorbent material and shovel into container for disposal. Collect absorbed material and place into a sealed, labeled container for proper disposal. Practice good housekeeping - spillage can be slippery on smooth surface either wet or dry.
Reference to Other Sections
See heading 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection. Concerning disposal elimination after cleaning, see item 13.
