Section 4. First Aid Measures
    Eye Contact        Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes,    
    keeping eyelids open. Cold water may be used. Do not use an eye ointment. Seek medical attention.

    with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin.
    Cold water may be used. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
    Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.
    Serious Skin Contact        Wash with a disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream. Seek immediate    
    medical attention.
    Inhalation        Allow the victim to rest in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.    
    Serious Inhalation        Not available.

Section 7. Handling and Storage
    Precautions        Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Empty containers pose a fire risk, evaporate the    
    residue under a fume hood. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe gas/fumes/
    vapour/spray. Wear suitable protective clothing In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory
    equipment If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Avoid contact with
    skin and eyes
    Storage        Keep container dry. Keep in a cool place. Ground all equipment containing material. Keep container tightly    
    closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Combustible materials should be stored away from extreme heat
    and away from strong oxidizing agents.

Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
    Engineering Controls        Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their    
    respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are proximal to the
    work-station location.
    Personal Protection        Splash goggles. Lab coat. Vapor respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent.    
    Gloves.
    Personal Protection in Case of Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapor respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be
    a Large Spill        used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist    
    BEFORE handling this product.
