Section 4. First Aid Measures
Eye ContactCheck 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.
Skin ContactNo known effect on skin contact, rinse with water for a few minutes.
Serious Skin ContactNot available.
InhalationAllow the victim to rest in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.

IngestionDo not induce vomiting. Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues are damaged, a possible
indication that the toxic material was ingested; the absence of such signs, however, is not conclusive. Loosen
tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Seek immediate medical attention.

Section 7. Handling and Storage
PrecautionsKeep 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 dust.
Avoid contact with eyes Wear suitable protective clothing If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show
the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents.
StorageKeep 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.
