PERSONAL PROTECTION;

Do not spray directly into eyes, mouth or nose. Avoid spraying directly onto the skin. Do not smoke while using this product; solvent vapours drawn into lighted cigarettes will decompose to form toxic products of combustion.

Personal protection to be selected from those recommended below, as appropriate to mode of use, quantity handled and degree of hazard;

Self contained breathing apparatus, Supplied-air hood, Face shield or safety glasses, Gloves, rubber or plastic, Overalls.

SAFE HANDLING INFORMATION STORAGE ADVICE;

Store in a cool, <50°C, well ventilated place, out of reach of children. Large quantities should be stored in a dangerous goods store. Store out of direct sunlight. No smoking or welding. Prevent vapours from collecting in enclosed spaces. Protect from physical damage. Attend to leaking cans immediately; avoid secondary accidents.

SPILLS AND DISPOSALS;

Leaking cans should be carried to a safe, open area for atmospheric evaporation. Ventilate area to dispel any residual vapours.

FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD; Yes, contents under pressure

Solvent vapour/air mixture may be decomposed by very high temperatures to form toxic products. Cans may rupture violently if involved in a fire. Evacuate Immediate Area.

DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS;

Carbon Dioxide, Hydrochloric Acid, Hydrofluoric Acid, and Carbonyl Halides such as Phosgene. Solvent incompatible with finely divided active metals, alkali earth metals. (May cause strong exothermic reaction.) Strong oxidising agents and some desiccants may react. Solvent vapour/air mixture may be decomposed at very high temperatures eg. by welding or other high temperature source.

HAZCHEM CODE; 2 Y

Extinguishant; Water fog or fine water spray.
