3. COMPOSITION INFORMATION
If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre (Phone Australia 131 126, New Zealand 0800
764 766).
Inhalation: Remove victim from exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and
loosen remaining clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until
fully recovered. Seek medical advice if effects persist.
Skin Contact: If skin or hair contact occurs, immediately remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair
with running water. Continue flushing with water until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a
Doctor; or for 15 minutes and transport to Doctor or Hospital. For gross contamination, immediately drench with
water and remove clothing. Continue to flush skin and hair with plenty of water (and soap if material is insoluble).
For skin burns, cover with a clean, dry dressing until medical help is available. If blistering occurs, do NOT break
blisters. If swelling, redness, blistering, or irritation occurs seek medical assistance.
Eye contact: If in eyes wash out immediately with water. In all cases of eye contamination it is a sensible
precaution to seek medical advice.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water to drink.
Never give anything by the mouth to an unconscious patient. If vomiting occurs give further water. Seek medical
advice.
Hazchem Code:
Suitable extinguishing media: If material is involved in a fire use alcohol resistant foam or dry agent (carbon
dioxide, dry chemical powder).
Fire fighting further advice: On burning or decomposing may emit toxic fumes. Fire fighters to wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of
combustion or decomposition.
SMALL SPILLS
Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination. Avoid inhalation of vapours or dust. Wipe up
with absorbent (clean rag or paper towels). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal.
LARGE SPILLS
If safe to do so, shut off all possible sources of ignition. Clear area of all unprotected personnel. Slippery when
spilt. Avoid accidents, clean up immediately. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination
and the inhalation of vapours. Work up wind or increase ventilation. Contain - prevent run off into drains and
waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert material). Use a spark-free shovel. Collect and seal in
properly labelled containers or drums for disposal. If contamination of crops, sewers or waterways has occurred
advise local emergency services.
Handling: Avoid eye contact and skin contact. Avoid inhalation of vapour, mist or aerosols.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from foodstuffs. Store
away from incompatible materials described in Section 10. Store away from sourc es of heat and/or ignition.
Store locked up. Keep container standing upright. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for
leaks.
TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working
week over an entire working life.
These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept too as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as
fine dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative
toxicity.
If the directions for use on the product label are followed, exposure of individuals using the product should not
exceed the above standard. The standard was created for workers who are routinely, potentially exposed during
product manufacture.
Engineering Measures: Ensure ventilation is adequate to maintain air concentrations below Exposure
Standards. Use only in well ventilated areas. Use with local exhaust ventilation or while wearing appropriate
respirator.
Wear safety shoes, overalls, gloves, safety glasses.Available information suggests that gloves made from nitrile
rubber should be suitable for intermittent contact. However, due to variations in glove construction and local
conditions, the user should make a final assessment. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or
using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storing or re-using.
Hygiene measures: Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. When using do not eat, drink or
smoke. Wash hands prior to eating, drinking or smoking. Avoid contact with clothing. Avoid eye contact and skin
contact. Avoid inhalation of vapour, mist or aerosols. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close
to the workstation location.

Chemical stability: This material is thermally stable when stored and used as directed.
Hazardous decomposition products: Oxides of carbon and nitrogen, smoke and other toxic fumes .
No adverse health effects expected if the product is handled in accordance with this Safety Data Sheet and the
product label. Symptoms or effects that may arise if the product is mishandled and overexposure occurs are:
Acute Effects
Inhalation: Material may be an irritant to mucous membranes and respiratory tract. Inhalation of vapour can
result in headaches, dizziness and possible nausea. Inhalation of high concentrations can produce cen tral
nervous system depression, which can lead to loss of co-ordination, impaired judgement and if exposure is
prolonged, unconsciousness.
Ingestion: Swallowing can result in nausea, vomiting and irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.
Acute toxicity
Inhalation: This material has been classified as non-hazardous. Acute toxicity estimate (based on ingredients):
>20 mg/L
Skin contact: This material has been classified as non-hazardous. Acute toxicity estimate (based on
ingredients): >2,000 mg/Kg
Ingestion: This material has been classified as non-hazardous. Acute toxicity estimate (based on ingredients):
>2,000 mg/Kg
Corrosion/Irritancy: Eye: this material has been classified as not corrosive or irritating to eyes. Skin: this
material has been classified as a Category 2 Hazard (reversible effects to skin).

been classified as not a skin sensitiser.
Specific target organ toxicity (single exposure): This material has been classified as a Category 3 Hazard.
Exposure via inhalation may result in depression of the central nervous system.
Chronic Toxicity
Reproductive toxicity (including via lactation): This material has been classified as non-hazardous.
Specific target organ toxicity (repeat exposure): This material has been classified as non-hazardous.
Acute aquatic hazard: This material has been classified as non-hazardous. Acute toxicity estimate (based on
ingredients): >100 mg/L
Long-term aquatic hazard: This material has been classified as a Category Chronic 2 Hazard. Non-rapidly or
rapidly degradable substance for which there are adequate chronic toxicity data available OR in the absence of
chronic toxicity data, Acute toxicity estimate (based on ingredients): 1 - 10 mg/L, where the substance is not
rapidly degradable and/or BCF 500 and/or log K ow 4.
