4. FIRST AID MEASURES

     In case of inhalation: If tightness in the chest, irritation or coughing occurs, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms persist.


     In case of splashes in eye: If the material gets in the eyes, immediately wash the eyes with copious amounts of water, occasionally lifting the lower

     and upper eyelids. Continue for 15 minutes and get medical attention immediately.

     In case of skin contact: If the material gets on the skin, immediately wash the area with soap and water and flush with water.   If irritation develops  

     get medical attention.


     In case of clothing spattering: Discard or wash contaminated clothing before reuse.


     In case of ingestion: If the material has been swallowed, dilute with milk or water if the victim is alert. See doctor as soon as possible.


5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

        Extinguishing Media recommended:    Carbon Dioxide, foam, dry chemical

         Sensitivity to Impact: None
         Sensitivity to Static Discharge: None


6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Measures for personal safety:

GLOVES: Use gloves made from an impervious material, e.g. nitrile, butyl or latex rubber. Latex rubber may soften and become pervious if also exposed to organic solvents.

        RESPIRATOR: Not required under normal operating conditions. Respiratory protection may be needed in unusual circumstances where significant
exposure to fumes or mists can occur. A NIOSH approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge would then be recommended.   Use must comply with OSHA (29 CFR 1910.134) and other regulatory standards.
 
EYE: Wear safety glasses.
 
FOOTWEAR: Impervious shoes, e.g. leather, not cloth or sandals.
 
Ventilation Requirements:
A fume hood is not generally required. The room should have adequate ventilation to avoid potential for concentration of mist or vapors.
 
Environmental measures:
Stop the product from entering the drainage system and the natural environment.  Limit leakage with earth.
 
Cleaning methods:
Recovery: Absorb material with paper towel or other absorbent. Place in container for disposal. If possible, expose absorbed resin to UV
light or sunlight to solidify the resin.
 
Cleaning/decontamination: Clean up with soap and water.
 
Elimination: Eliminate according to local and national regulations.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
