Section 4. First Aid Measures

General advice : Have the product container, label or Safety Data Sheet with you when calling the emergency number, a poison control center or physician, or going for treatment. If inhaled : Move the victim to fresh air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Keep patient warm and at rest. Call a physician or poison control centre immediately. In case of skin contact : Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off immediately with plenty of water. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. In case of eye contact : Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses. Immediate medical attention is required. If swallowed : If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. Do NOT induce vomiting. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed : Nonspecific No symptoms known or expected. Notes to physician : There is no specific antidote available. Treat symptomatically.

Section 5. Firefighting Measures

Suitable extinguishing media : Extinguishing media - small fires Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Extinguishing media - large fires Alcohol-resistant foam or Water spray Unsuitable extinguishing media : Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire. Specific hazards during firefighting : As the product contains combustible organic components, fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous products of combustion (see section 10). Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health. Specific extinguishing methods : Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Special protective equipment for firefighters : Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Hazchem Code : •3Z

Section 6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures : Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. Environmental precautions : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up : Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Clean with detergents. Avoid solvents. Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.

Section 7. Handling and Storage

Advice on safe handling : No special protective measures against fire required. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. For personal protection see section 8. Conditions for safe storage : No special storage conditions required. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep out of the reach of children. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Further information on storage stability : Physically and chemically stable for at least 2 years when stored in the original unopened sales container at ambient temperatures.

Section 8. Exposure Controls/personal Protection

Components with workplace control parameters Engineering measures : THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION ARE INTENDED FOR THE MANUFACTURE, FORMULATION AND PACKAGING OF THE PRODUCT. FOR COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS AND/OR ON-FARM APPLICATIONS CONSULT THE PRODUCT LABEL.

Containment and/or segregation is the most reliable technical protection measure if exposure cannot be eliminated. The extent of these protection measures depends on the actual risks in use. Maintain air concentrations below occupational exposure standards. Where necessary, seek additional occupational hygiene advice.

Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection : No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. Hand protection Material : Nitrile rubber Break through time : > 480 min Glove thickness : 0.5 mm Remarks : Wear protective gloves. The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time. The break through time depends amongst other things on the material, the thickness and the type of glove and therefore has to be measured for each case. Gloves should be discarded and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough. Eye protection : No special protective equipment required. Skin and body protection : Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Wear as appropriate: Impervious clothing Protective measures : The use of technical measures should always have priority over the use of personal protective equipment. When selecting personal protective equipment, seek appropriate professional advice. Personal protective equipment should comply with relevant national standards

Section 13. Disposal Considerations

Disposal methods Waste from residues : Do not contaminate ponds, waterways or ditches with chemical or used container. Do not dispose of waste into sewer. Where possible recycling is preferred to disposal or incineration. If recycling is not practicable, dispose of in compliance with local regulations. Contaminated packaging : Non-returnable containers: Triple rinse containers. Add rinsings to spray tank If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. Containers marked with the drumMUSTER container logo can be taken to a drumMUSTER collection site (, ). Empty containers can be landfilled, when in accordance with the local regulations. If no landfill is available, bury the containers below 500 mm in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots. Empty containers and product should not be burnt. Returnable containers: Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to point of supply for refill or storage.
