4. First-aid measures
First-aid measures
General : In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery
position and seek medical advice.
Inhalation : Remove to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If not breathing, if breathing is
irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by
trained personnel.
Skin contact : Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and
water or use recognised skin cleanser. Do NOT use solvents or thinners.
Eye contact : Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with running water
for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids open. Seek immediate medical attention.
Ingestion : If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or label.
Keep person warm and at rest. Do not induce vomiting.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media : Recommended: alcohol-resistant foam, CO2, powders, water spray.
Extinguishing media not to : Do not use water jet.
be used
Recommendations : Fire will produce dense black smoke. Exposure to decomposition products may
cause a health hazard. Appropriate breathing apparatus may be required.
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water. Do not release runoff from fire to
drains or watercourses.

6. Accidental release measures


Personal precautions : Exclude sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Avoid breathing vapour or mist.
Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
Spill : Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand,
earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal
according to local regulations (see section 13). Preferably clean with a detergent.
Avoid using solvents.
Note: see section 8 for personal protective equipment and section 13 for waste disposal.

7. Handling and storage


Handling : Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapours in air and
avoid vapour concentrations higher than the occupational exposure limits.
In addition, the product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and
other sources of ignition have been excluded. Electrical equipment should be
protected to the appropriate standard.
To dissipate static electricity during transfer, earth drum and connect to receiving
container with bonding strap. Operators should wear antistatic footwear and clothing
and floors should be of the conducting type.
Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. No sparking tools should be used.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid the inhalation of dust, particulates, spray or
mist arising from the application of this preparation. Avoid inhalation of dust from
sanding.
Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is
handled, stored and processed.
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8).
Never use pressure to empty. Container is not a pressure vessel.
Always keep in containers made from the same material as the original one.
Comply with the health and safety at work laws.
Information on fire and explosion protection
Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapours may form
explosive mixtures with air.

When operators, whether spraying or not, have to work inside the spray booth,
ventilation is unlikely to be sufficient to control particulates and solvent vapour in all
cases. In such circumstances they should wear a compressed air-fed respirator
during the spraying process and until such time as the particulates and solvent
vapour concentration has fallen below the exposure limits.

Storage : Store in accordance with local regulations.


Notes on joint storage
Keep away from: oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strong acids.
Additional information on storage conditions
Observe label precautions. Store in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area. Keep away
from heat and direct sunlight. Keep away from sources of ignition. No smoking.
Prevent unauthorised access. Containers that have been opened must be carefully
resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.

8. Exposure controls/personal protection


Engineering measures : Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable, this should be achieved
by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these are not
sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and solvent vapours below the
OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

Personal protective equipment


Respiratory system : If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit, they must use
appropriate, certified respirators. Use respiratory mask with charcoal and dust filter
when spraying this product.(as filter combination A2-P2). In confined spaces, use
compressed-air or fresh-air respiratory equipment. When use of roller or brush,
consider use of charcoalfilter.

Skin and body : Personnel should wear antistatic clothing made of natural fibres or of high-
temperature-resistant synthetic fibres.
Hands : For prolonged or repeated handling, use the following type of gloves: gloves:
polyvinyl alcohol or nitrile.

Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin but should not be
applied once exposure has occurred.
For right choice of glove materials, with focus on chemical resistance and time of
penetration, seek advice by the supplier of chemical resistant gloves.
The user must check that the final choice of type of glove selected for handling this
product is the most appropriate and takes into account the particular conditions of

11. Toxicological information


There are no data available on the preparation itself. The preparation has been assessed following the conventional
method of the Dangerous Preparations Directive 1999/45/EC and classified for toxicological hazards accordingly. See
sections 2 and 15 for details.

Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in
adverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys,
liver and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness,
drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with the
preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin, resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption
through the skin.
If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause irritation and reversible damage.
Ingestion may cause nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
This takes into account, where known, delayed and immediate effects and also chronic effects of components from
short-term and long-term exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye contact.

Contains epoxy resin (MW 700-1200). May produce an allergic reaction.


Carcinogenicity : May cause cancer. Risk of cancer depends on duration and level of exposure.
Reproductive toxicity : Can cause birth defects.
