SWALLOWED » Not considered a normal route of entry. - Avoid giving milk or oils. - Avoid giving alcohol. EYE » If aerosols come in contact with the eyes: - Immediately hold the eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously for at least 15 minutes with fresh running water. - Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. - Transport to hospital or doctor without delay. - Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel. SKIN » If solids or aerosol mists are deposited upon the skin: - Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). - Remove any adhering solids with industrial skin cleansing cream. - DO NOT use solvents. - Seek medical attention in the event of irritation. INHALED » If aerosols, fumes or combustion products are inhaled: - Remove to fresh air. - Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested. - Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. - If breathing is shallow or has stopped, ensure clear airway and apply resuscitation, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN » for poisons (where specific treatment regime is absent): -------------------------------------------------------------- BASIC TREATMENT -------------------------------------------------------------- - Establish a patent airway with suction where necessary. - Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilation as necessary. - Administer oxygen by non-rebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. - Monitor and treat, where necessary, for pulmonary oedema . for intoxication due to Freons/ Halons;
- Maintain an open airway and assist ventilation if necessary- Treat coma and arrhythmias if they occur. Avoid (adrenaline) epinephrine or other sympathomimetic amines that may precipitate ventriculararrhythmias. Tachyarrhythmias caused by increased myocardial sensitisation may be treated with propranolol, 1-2 mg IV or esmolol 25-100microgm/kg/min IV. - Monitor the ECG for 4-6 hoursB: Specific drugs and antidotes:- There is no specific antidote. Treat symptomatically. continued.

FIRE FIGHTING » - Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. - May be violently or explosively reactive. - Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. - Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course. When any large container (including road and rail tankers) is involved in a fire, consider evacuation by FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD » - Non combustible. - Not considered to be a significant fire risk. - Heating may cause expansion or decomposition leading to violent rupture of containers. - Aerosol cans may explode on exposure to naked flames. Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of: carbon monoxide (CO). Combustion products include: carbon dioxide (CO2), acrolein, hydrogen chloride, phosgene, other pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material. - Non flammable liquid. - However vapour will burn when in contact with high temperature flame. - Ignition ceases on removal of flame. - May form a flammable / explosive mixture in an oxygen enriched atmosphere. FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY » - Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result. Personal Protective Equipment Gas tight chemical resistant suit. Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES EMERGENCY PROCEDURES MINOR SPILLS » - Clean up all spills immediately. - Avoid breathing vapours and contact with skin and eyes. - Wear protective clothing, impervious gloves and safety glasses. - Shut off all possible sources of ignition and increase ventilation. MAJOR SPILLS » - Remove leaking cylinders to a safe place. - Fit vent pipes. Release pressure under safe, controlled conditions - Burn issuing gas at vent pipes. - DO NOT exert excessive pressure on valve; DO NOT attempt to operate damaged valve. - Clear area of personnel and move upwind. - Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. - May be violently or explosively reactive. - Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS. Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING » - Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation. - Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs. - Use in a well-ventilated area. - Prevent concentration in hollows and sumps. SUITABLE CONTAINER » - DO NOT use aluminium or galvanised containers. - Aerosol dispenser. - Check that containers are clearly labelled. STORAGE INCOMPATIBILITY » Methylene chloride - is a combustible liquid under certain circumstances even though there is no measurable flash point and it is difficult to ignite continued.

- its is flammable in ambient air in the range 12-23%; increased oxygen content can greatly enhance fire and explosion potential- contact with hot surfaces and elevated temperatures can form fumes of hydrogen chloride and phosgene- reacts violently with active metals, aluminium, lithium, methanol,, peroxydisulfuryl difluoride, potassium, potassium tert-butoxide, sodium- forms explosive mixtures with nitric acid- is incompatible with strong oxidisers, strong caustics, alkaline earths and alkali metals- attacks some plastics, coatings and rubber- may generate electrostatic charge due to low conductivity. - Segregate from alcohol, water. - Avoid reaction with oxidising agents. STORAGE REQUIREMENTS » - Keep dry to avoid corrosion of cans. Corrosion may result in container perforation and internal pressure may eject contents of can. Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION EXPOSURE CONTROLS Source PERSONAL PROTECTION RESPIRATOR Type AXNO-P Filter of sufficient capacity EYE » No special equipment for minor exposure i.e. when handling small quantities.
OTHERWISE: For potentially moderate or heavy exposures:
- NOTE: Contact lenses pose a special hazard; soft lenses may absorb irritants and ALL lenses concentrate them. HANDS/FEET » - No special equipment needed when handling small quantities. - OTHERWISE: OTHER » No special equipment needed when handling small quantities. OTHERWISE: - Overalls. - Skin cleansing cream. - Eyewash unit. - Do not spray on hot surfaces. ENGINEERING CONTROLS » General exhaust is adequate under normal conditions. If risk of overexposure exists, wear SAA approved respirator.
Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage areas. Section 9 - PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES APPEARANCE Clear to hazy colourless to pale yellow liquid with an ether-like odour; not miscible with water. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Liquid. Gas. Does not mix with water. Sinks in water.
