Wash skin thoroughly after handling. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
RESPONSE:
IF SWALLOWED: Do Not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth. Immediately drink 1 to 2 glasses of water or milk. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
If in EYES: In case of contact, immediately flush thoroughly with plenty of cool running water. Remove contact lenses if worn. Continue flushing for at least 15
minutes holding eyelids apart. If irritation persists, get medical attention promptly.
IF on SKIN (or HAIR): In case of contact, immediately flush thoroughly with plenty of cool running water for at least 15 minutes. Immediately remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash prior to reuse.
IF INHALED: If discomfort is experienced from exposure to spray mist, the person should employ respiratory protection or leave the contaminated area until
proper ventilation is restored. Breathe fresh air. If irritation persists, get medical attention.

4. HEALTH HAZARD DATA & FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES : Immediately flush the eyes with large quantities of running water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Hold the eyelids apart during the flushing to ensure rinsing
of the entire surface of the eyes and lids with water. DO NOT attempt to neutralize with chemical agents. Obtain medical attention as soon as possible. Oils or
ointments should not be used. Continue the flushing for an additional 15 minutes if the physician is not immediately available.
SKIN : Immediately remove contaminated clothing under safety shower. Flush all affected areas with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT
attempt to neutralize with chemical agents. Obtain medical advice immediately.
INGESTION : If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Immediately give large quantities of water or milk, if available. If vomiting does occur, give fluids again.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician or nearest Poison Control Center immediately.
INHALATION : Remove from contaminated atmosphere. If breathing has ceased, clear the victim's airway and start mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, which
may be supplemented by the use of a bag-mask respirator, or a manually-triggered, oxygen supply capable of delivering 1 liter/second or more. If the victim is
breathing, oxygen may be administered from a demand-type or continuous-flow inhalator, preferably with a physician's advice. Contact a physician immediately.
EYES : Immediately flush the eyes with large quantities of running water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Hold the eyelids apart during the flushing to ensure rinsing
of the entire surface of the eyes and lids with water. DO NOT attempt to neutralize with chemical agents. Obtain medical attention as soon as possible. Oils or
ointments should not be used. Continue the flushing for an additional 15 minutes if the physician is not immediately available.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Treat symptomatically.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PRODCDURES: Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep people away from and upwind of
spill/leak. Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes. When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators. Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR CONTAINMENT AND CLEANING UP: To contain spilled material, dike area involved. Neutralize with the following acids:
vinegar, citric acid, muriatic or hydrochloric acid. To absorb product, use porous material such as diatomaceous earth, sand or a commercial absorbent. Using a
shovel, place into leak proof containers.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Do not allow contact with soil, surface or ground water.
7. PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING/STORAGE/USE
SAFE HANDLING: Do not ingest. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe dust/ fume/ gas/ mist/ vapors/ spray. Use only with adequate
ventilation. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
GENERAL PROCEDURES : Store in a tightly closed container. Do not store near oxidizers, alkalies, acids and bleach. Do not mix with other chemicals. Store away
from excessive heat.
Do not freeze. Keep away from food stuffs. Keep out of reach of children.
