Section VII First aid measures
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skin: Flush the contact area with lukewarm running water for at least 15
minutes. Remove contaminated clothing, taking care not to spread the chemical.
If contamination is extensive, remove clothing under running water. Discard or
decontaminate clothing under running water. Discard or decontaminate clothing
before use. Unless contact has been slight, seek medical attention. Seek
medical attention if irritation persists.
Eye: Flush the contaminated eye(s) for at least 15 minutes with lukewarm
running water, holding the eyelids open. Take care not to rinse contaminated
water into the non-affected eye. Always seek medical attention for accidents
involving the eyes.
Inhalation: Take proper precautions to ensure your own safety before
attempting rescue. Remove source of contamination or move victim to fresh air.
If breathing has stopped, trained personnel should begin artificial
respiration, or if the heart has stopped, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
immediately. Seek medical attention.
Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth if victim is rapidly losing
consciousness, or is unconscious or convulsing. Rinse mouth thoroughly with
water. Do not induce vomiting. Have victim drink 200-400 ml of water to dilute.
If breathing has stopped, trained personnel should begin artificial
respiration, or if the heart has stopped, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
immediately. Seek medical attention.

Section VIII Preventive Measures
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Engineering Controls: Engineering control methods to reduce hazardous
exposures are preferred. Methods include mechanical ventilation (dilution and
local exhaust), process or personnel enclosure, control of process conditions,
and
process modification. Administrative controls and personal protective equipment
may also be required.
Personal protective equipment:
-gloves: Rubber
-respiratory protection: Fume hood, approved respirator as
appropriate
-eye protection: Chemical safety goggles or face shield
-clothing: Plastic apron, sleeves and boots as appropriate
Storage Requirements: Store in suitable labelled containers. Keep
containers tightly closed when not in use and when empty. Protect from damage.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight.
Handling Procedures and Equipment: Avoid generating dust. Follow routine
safe handling procedures.
Leak or Spill Clean-up: Before dealing with spillages take necessary
protective measures, inform others to keep at a safe distance and, for
flammable materials, shut off all possible sources of ignition. Transfer
carefully into container and arrange removal by disposal company. Wash site of
spillage thoroughly with water and detergent.
Disposal: Follow all federal, provincial and local regulations for
disposal
Use only licensed disposal and waste hauling companies. Disposal of small
amounts of spilled material may be handled as described under "Leak or
Spill Cleanup". Large spills must be dealt with separately and must be handled
by qualified disposal companies.
Special Shipping Information: Follow all TDG regulations and see
classification in Section I
