Precautionary
Statements
Prevention: Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition
sources. No smoking. Keep container tightly closed. Ground and bond
container and receiving equipment. Use explosion-proof electrical
equipment. Use non-sparking tools. Take action to prevent static
discharges. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face
protection. Wash thoroughly after handling. Obtain special instructions
before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and
understood. Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid release
to the environment.
Response: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove
contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation
persists: Get medical advice/attention. IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off
immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water [or shower]. If
skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. IF SWALLOWED:
Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/ physician. Do NOT induce
vomiting. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. Specific
treatment (see on this label). Take off contaminated clothing. In case of fire:
Use… to extinguish.
Hazard(s) not otherwise Static accumulating flammable liquid can become electrostatically charged
classified (HNOC): even in bonded and grounded equipment.

Description of necessary first-aid measures
Skin Contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Immediately flush with
plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated
clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Get
medical attention.
Eye contact: Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy
to do, remove contact lenses. Get medical attention.
Personal Protection for First- Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame
aid Responders: retardant coat, helmet with face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in
enclosed spaces, SCBA.
5. Fire-fighting measures
General Fire Hazards: Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Water may be
ineffective in fighting the fire. Fight fire from a protected location. Move
containers from fire area if you can do so without risk.

media:
Specific hazards arising from Vapors may travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash
the chemical: back. Vapors may cause a flash fire or ignite explosively. Prevent buildup of
vapors or gases to explosive concentrations.
Special protective equipment Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame
for fire-fighters: retardant coat, helmet with face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in
enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Personal precautions, Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. ELIMINATE all ignition
protective equipment and sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Keep
emergency procedures: upwind. See Section 8 of the SDS for Personal Protective Equipment. Do
not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
appropriate protective clothing. Keep unauthorized personnel away.
Accidental release measures: In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in
accordance with all applicable regulations.
Methods and material for Dam and absorb spillages with sand, earth or other non-combustible
containment and cleaning material. Collect spillage in containers, seal securely and deliver for
up: disposal according to local regulations.
Environmental Precautions: Avoid release to the environment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe
to do so. Do not contaminate water sources or sewer.
Technical measures (e.g. Local Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Observe occupational exposure
and general ventilation): limits and minimize the risk of inhalation of vapors and mist. Mechanical
ventilation or local exhaust ventilation may be required.

Other effects: Constituents of this product may include crystalline silica which, if in
inhalable form, may cause silicosis, a form of progressive pulmonary
fibrosis. Inhalable crystalline silica is listed by IARC as a group I carcinogen
(lung) based on sufficient evidence in occupationally exposed humans and
sufficient evidence in animals. Crystalline silica is also listed by the NTP as
a known human carcinogen. Constituents may also contain asbestiform or
non-asbestiform tremolite or other silicates as impurities, and above de
minimis exposure to these impurities in inhalable form may be carcinogenic
or cause other serious lung problems.
