4: First Aid Measures

Symptoms: Toxic, mainly via inhalation. Irritating to eyes and respiratory tract. Depresses
the nervous system. In high enough concentrations, may cause dizziness,
breathing difficulties, confusion, drowsiness, loss of consciousness.

Skin: Flush with large amounts of water; use soap if available. Remove contaminated
clothing, including shoes, after flushing has begun. If irritation persists, get
medical attention.

Eyes: Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation
persists, get medical attention.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. If
ingested, DO NOT induce vomiting; call a physician immediately.

Inhalation: Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim
from exposure. Administer artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at
rest. Call for prompt medical attention.

5: Fire-Fighting Measures

Danger of fire or combustion.

Extinguishing media: foam or dry chemicals.

Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool, long after the fire is out.
Vapors are flammable and much heavier than air (heavy gas), may travel long distances along
ground before igniting and flashing back to vapor source, or may explode.
Use supplied-air breathing equipment for enclosed or confined spaces or as otherwise needed.

6: Accidental Release Measures

Wear full protective clothing. Flammable liquid. Eliminate possible sources of ignition. Stop
the leakage if you can do it without risk. Absorb the chemical onto sand, vermiculite, or
absorbent sleeves, and scoop into containers for disposal.
7: Handling and Storage

Keep away from incompatible materials (see section 10).

Combustible liquid. Keep away from flame, sparks, static electricity, friction or any other
heat source that may cause ignition.

Keep in well-ventilated area. In areas of storage and use, it is advisable that the
electrical system will be adjusted to working in an explosive atmosphere.
Safety phrases according to Israeli regulation:
Do not breath gas or smoke or fumes or spray.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
In case of fire use appropriate fire-igniting equipment.
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: seek medical advice immediately and show this
container or label.

8: Exposure Control and Personal Protection

Threshold values: For Xylene:

REL-NIOSH for 8 hours 100 ppm (TWA); for short time 150 pp (STEL) TLV-
ACGIH for 8 hours 100 ppm (TWA); for short time 150 pp (STEL) PEL-OSHA
for 8 hours 100 ppm (TWA); for short time 150 ppm (STEL) MAK-Ger for 8
hours 100 ppm (TWA);

Protective equipment: Generally, personal protection is a function of exposure. It is

recommended to use safety spectacles or goggles, working shoes,
working clothes or lab coat. Working should be done in a well-
ventilated area.
In addition: mask and filter for organic compounds type A gloves.

In case of an emergency: Full protective gear and a self-contained breathing apparatus should
be used, according to the severity.

13: Disposal Considerations

According to the Israeli regulations, a holder of this waste must evacuate it as soon as possible
and not later than 6 months after the production of the waste, to the Ramat-Hovav waste site.
The waste should be packed and transported according to the regulations. For packing group
and transport classification of the waste refer to section 14.

According to the Israeli regulations, industrial spillage into the sewage system will not contain:
any solid, liquid or gas, which may cause fire or explosion conditions in the sewage system;
For additional information, check local regulations.
