4. FIRST AID MEASURES
FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Move victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration ONLY if breathing has stopped. Give
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) if there is no breathing AND no pulse. Obtain medical attention
IMMEDIATELY.
Inhalation:
At ambient temperatures: Start flushing while removing contaminated clothing. Wash affected areas
thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation, redness, or a burning sensation develops and persists,
obtain medical advice.
At processing temperatures: For thermal skin burns, remove clothing, any jewelry, and gross debris
from the burned area. Immediately flush the affected area with large amounts of water. Do not attempt
to peel. Leave the blisters intact. Cover the wounded area with gauze dressing moistened with cool
water; keep the dressing moist. Seek medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
At ambient temperatures: Immediately flush eyes with running water for a minimum of 20 minutes. Hold
eyelids open during flushing. If irritation persists, repeat flushing. Obtain medical attention
IMMEDIATELY.
At processing temperatures: For thermal eye burns, remove any jewelry, and gross debris from the
burned area. Immediately flush the affected area with large amounts of water. Do not attempt to peel.
Leave the blisters intact. Cover the wounded area with gauze dressing moistened with cool water; keep
the dressing moist. Seek medical attention immediately.
Eye Contact:
Do not attempt to give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If victim is alert and not
convulsing, rinse mouth out and give 1/2 to 1 glass of water to dilute material. IMMEDIATELY contact
local Poison Control Centre. Vomiting should only be induced under the direction of a physician or a
poison control centre. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, have victim lean forward with head down to
avoid breathing in of vomitus, rinse mouth and administer more water. IMMEDIATELY transport victim
to an emergency facility.
Ingestion:
At ambient temperatures: Treat symptomatically.
At processing temperatures: Treatment for thermal, surface burns:
1. Immerse the burned part immediately in ice water to relieve pain and to prevent swelling and
blistering. Place cold packs, ice or wet cloths on the burned area if immersion is not possible.
2. Remove anything that is constrictive, such as rings, bracelets or footwear, before swelling begins.
3. Cover the burn with a clean, preferably sterile, lint-free dressing.
4. For severe burns, immediately seek medical attention and monitor breathing and treat for shock.
Medical conditions that may be aggravated by exposure to this product include diseases of the skin,
eyes or respiratory tract.
Note to Physicians:
At ambient temperatures: This product may cause mild, transient irritation.
At processing temperatures: Vapours from this product are irritating to the eyes. Burns (thermal) can
occur if not promptly removed. This product causes immediate pain, severe burns and permanent
corneal damage which may result in blindness.
Eye Contact:
Ingestion is not a likely route of exposure. At ambient temperatures: Ingestion of large amounts may
cause intestinal obstruction.
At elevated temperatures: Causes thermal burns.
Ingestion:
Effects (irritancy) on the skin and eyes may be delayed, and damage may occur without the sensation
or onset of pain. Strict adherence to first aid measures following any exposure is essential.
At ambient temperatures: Low hazard for usual industrial or commercial handling.
At elevated temperatures: Contact with heated material may cause thermal burns. May cause central
nervous system (CNS) depression and staining. CNS depression is characterized by headache,
dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting and incoordination. Severe overexposures may lead to coma
and possible death due to respiratory failure.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Use carbon dioxide or dry chemical media for small fires. If only water is available, use it in the form of
a fog. Most resins melt when they burn. Fire spread is accelerated by burning and dripping of flaming
melt. Once fire becomes established it will develop rapidly and application of large quantities of water
at early stage is necessary to effect extinguishment. (4)
Fire Extinguishing Media:
FIRE FIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS
Isolate materials that are not involved in the fire and protect personnel. Fire-exposed containers should
be kept cool by spraying with water to reduce pressure. Do not direct a solid stream of foam into hot,
burning pools. This may cause spattering and increase fire intensity. Clean up immediately to eliminate
slipping hazard. Do not allow to enter sewers or watercourses.
