SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of first aid measures
First-aid measures after inhalation : If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for
breathing. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
First-aid measures after skin contact : In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing
and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get
medical advice/attention.
First-aid measures after eye contact : In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to
do, remove contact lenses, if worn. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
First-aid measures after ingestion : If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms/injuries after inhalation : May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Symptoms/injuries after skin contact : Causes skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness, edema, drying, defatting and cracking
of the skin. May cause an allergic skin reaction.
Symptoms/injuries after eye contact : Causes serious eye irritation. Symptoms may include discomfort or pain, excess blinking and
tear production, with marked redness and swelling of the conjunctiva.
Symptoms/injuries after ingestion : May be harmful if swallowed. May cause stomach distress, nausea or vomiting.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Symptoms may not appear immediately. In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label or SDS where
possible).

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For containment : Contain and/or absorb spill with inert material (e.g. sand, vermiculite), then place in a suitable
container. Do not flush to sewer or allow to enter waterways. Use appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE).
Methods for cleaning up : Scoop up material and place in a disposal container. Provide ventilation.
Reference to other sections
See section 8 for further information on protective clothing and equipment and section 13 for advice on waste disposal.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Precautions for safe handling : Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing dust, fume, gas, mist, vapors, spray. Do not
swallow. Handle and open container with care. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. When
mixed with epoxy curing agents this product causes an exothermic reaction, which in large
masses, can produce enough heat to damage or ignite surrounding materials and emit fumes
and vapors that vary widely in composition and toxicity.
Hygiene measures : Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking.
Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage conditions : Keep out of the reach of children. Keep container tightly closed. Store in dry, cool, well-
ventilated area. Protect from moisture. Storage temperature : 40 F (4 C) – 120 F (49 C).
SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection

Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls : Use ventilation adequate to keep exposures (airborne levels of dust, fume, vapor, etc.) below
recommended exposure limits.
Hand protection : Wear chemically resistant protective gloves.
Eye protection : Wear eye/face protection.
Skin and body protection : Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection : In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Respirator selection
must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the
safe working limits of the selected respirator.
Environmental exposure controls : Maintain levels below Community environmental protection thresholds.
Other information : Do not eat, smoke or drink where material is handled, processed or stored. Wash hands
