4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration, preferably
mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is difficult give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Skin Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation persists. Remove
contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.
Eyes In case of contact, or suspected contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention immediately after flushing.
Ingestion Get medical attention! If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent
aspiration.

Notes to Physician Not Applicable
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam.
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons
Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to danger of boilover.
Special Exposure Hazards Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces. Closed containers may explode in
fire. Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to danger of
boilover. Decomposition in fire may produce toxic gases. Vapors are heavier than
air and may accumulate in low areas. Vapors may travel along the ground to be
ignited at distant locations.
Special Protective Equipment Full protective clothing and approved self-contained breathing apparatus required
for Fire-Fighters for fire fighting personnel.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautionary Use appropriate protective equipment. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus in
Measures enclosed areas.
Environmental Precautionary Prevent from entering sewers, waterways, or low areas.
Measures
Procedure for Cleaning / Remove ignition sources and work with non-sparking tools. Isolate spill and stop
Absorption leak where safe. Contain spill with sand or other inert materials. Scoop up and
remove.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Precautions Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing. Avoid breathing vapors. Wash hands
after use. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Ground and bond
containers when transferring from one container to another. Avoid breathing mist.
Material is slippery underfoot. Open container slowly to release pressure.
Storage Information Store away from oxidizers. Keep from heat, sparks, and open flames. Store in a
cool well ventilated area. Keep container closed when not in use. Store locked up.
Product has a shelf life of 36 months.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls Use in a well ventilated area. Local exhaust ventilation should be used in areas
without good cross ventilation.
Respiratory Protection If engineering controls and work practices cannot keep exposure below
occupational exposure limits or if exposure is unknown, wear a NIOSH certified,
European Standard EN 149, or equivalent respirator when using this product.
Selection of and instruction on using all personal protective equipment, including
respirators, should be performed by an Industrial Hygienist or other qualified
professional.
Organic vapor respirator.
Hand Protection Impervious rubber gloves.

Skin Protection Rubber apron.
Eye Protection Chemical goggles; also wear a face shield if splashing hazard exists.
Other Precautions Eyewash fountains and safety showers must be easily accessible.

Sympotoms related to exposure
Acute Toxicity
Inhalation May cause respiratory irritation. May cause central nervous system depression including
headache, dizziness, drowsiness, incoordination, slowed reaction time, slurred speech,
giddiness and unconsciousness.
Eye Contact May cause eye irritation
Skin Contact May cause skin irritation.
Ingestion Aspiration into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis including coughing, difficulty
breathing, wheezing, coughing up blood and pneumonia, which can be fatal. May cause
central nervous system depression including headache, dizziness, drowsiness, muscular
weakness, incoordination, slowed reaction time, fatigue blurred vision, slurred speech,
giddiness, tremors and convulsions.
Chronic Effects/Carcinogenicity
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated naphthalene and
determined it to be a possible carcinogen to humans (Group 2B, based on sufficient
evidence in experimental animals and inadequate evidence in humans).
