Section 4 – First Aid Measures General Advise:
Immediately remove contaminated clothing. Exposure symptoms can appear after several hours. If contaminated consult medical advise up to 48 hours after exposure. First Aid: Wear protective equipment (i.e. protective gloves). If victim is unconscious: position and transport in “stable sideways position” to prevent asphyxiation if vomiting. Keep air passages open, remove dentures and vomit. Control breathing and pulse. If breathing and heart activity stops, administer CPR and call immediately emergency services.
After Inhalation:
Remove subject to fresh air. Administer oxygen if difficulty with breathing. Consult a physician immediately. The exposed person may need to be kept under medical surveillance for 48 hours.
After Ingestion:
Immediately seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water to dilute stomach contents. Stop if the exposed person feels sick as vomiting may be dangerous.
After Skin Contact:
Instantly wash skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention immediately. Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician.
After Eye Contact:
Rinse opened eye with plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Remove contact lenses. Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician. Consult physician immediately.
Protection of First Aid Personnel: If it is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate mask or self-contained breathing apparatus. It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Notes to Physician:
In case of inhalation of decomposition products in a fire, symptoms may be delayed. The Page 2 of 6
exposed person may need to be kept under medical surveillance for 48 hours.
Section 5 – Fire Fighting Measures Flash Point:
Closed cup: 110 - 120o C (230 - 248 o F). [DIN 51758; EN 22719 (Pensky-
Flammability:
In a fire or heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst.
Martens Closed Cup)].
Hazardous Thermal Decomposition Products: Decomposition products may include the following materials: Carbon dioxide; carbon monoxide; nitrogen oxides. Extinguishing Media: Suitable Not suitable
Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire. None known.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
As in any fire, wear full protective gear and NIOSH-approved selfcontained breathing apparatus with full face-piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Bursting and explosion of container possible due to increase of pressure when exposed to increasing heat. In case of fire, cool nearby containers with water fog. Formation of poisonous gases during heating or in fires possible.
Section 6 – Accidental Release Measures Personal Precautions:
Provide plenty of fresh air. Avoid eye and skin contact. Avoid inhalation of vapors. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Remove or eliminate all ignition sources. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
Methods for Cleaning up:
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind. Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent materials. I.e. sand, earth, vermiculate, diatomaceous earth, universal binders, sawdust and place in container for disposal.
Waste Disposal Method:
Dispose in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Ecological Information:
Do not allow product to reach ground water, bodies of water, storm water or sewage systems. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Section 7 – Handling and Storage Handling:
Avoid eye and skin contact. Keep out of reach of children. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Storage:
Storage temperature: 2 - 40 C (35 - 104 F). Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well ventilated area in tightly closed containers. Store away from foodstuffs. Provide fresh air when handling in closed rooms (open windows and doors). Do not store in unlabeled containers. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers.

Section 8 – Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Engineering Controls:
Use only with adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. Page 3 of 6
Washing of the skin in the working area must be possible. Eye-wash station or bottle must be available. Respiratory Protection:
Respirator in well ventilated areas not necessary. Wear a properly fitted NIOSH approved respirator in poorly ventilated areas or spillage.
Skin Protection:
When installing, wear appropriate impervious gloves (neoprene) to prevent handskin exposure. Wear appropriate impervious clothing (acid and alkaline resistant) to prevent skin exposure (long sleeve shirt and long pants).
Hand Protection:
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approve standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Material of gloves for long term application (BTT>480 min): - butyl rubber - ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate (EVAL) - gauntlet type. Material of gloves for short term/splash application (10 min971 mg/kg (rat-male) Irritation/Corrosion: 2,4,6-tris((dimethylaminomethyl)phenol: Dermal Skin Corrosive (rabbit) Eyes Corrosive (rabbit) Bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenol: Dermal Skin Irritant (rabbit) Eyes Irritant (rabbit) Potential Acute Health Effects: - Inhalation: May give off gas, vapor or dust that is very irritating or corrosive to the respiratory system. - Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause burns to mouth, throat and stomach. Causes severe burns.. - Skin: - Eyes: Causes serious eye damage. Additional Information:
If ingested, highly corrosive to mouth and throat, as well as danger or perforation to esophagus and stomach.
Section 12 – Ecological Information Environment:
Toxic to aquatic systems. Do not allow product to reach into natural waterways, drains, storm water or wastewater systems.
