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; A: Emergency and Supportive Measures - 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 ventricular arrhythmias. Tachyarrhythmias caused by increased myocardial sensitisation may be treated with propranolol, 1-2 mg IV or esmolol 25-100 microgm/kg/min IV. - Monitor the ECG for 4-6 hours B: Specific drugs and antidotes: - There is no specific antidote. Treat symptomatically. Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES EXTINGUISHING MEDIA ■ SMALL FIRE: Use extinguishing agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. LARGE FIRE: Cool cylinder. DO NOT direct water at source of leak or venting safety devices as icing may occur. SMALL FIRE: - Water spray, dry chemical or CO2 LARGE FIRE: - Water spray or fog. 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 100 metres in all directions. 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), hydrogen chloride, phosgene, hydrogen fluoride, other pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material. Contains low boiling substance: Closed containers may rupture due to pressure buildup under fire conditions. FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY ■ - Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result. HAZCHEM 2YE

Gas tight chemical resistant suit. Limit exposure duration to 1 BA set 30 mins. Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 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 - 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. Haloalkanes: - are highly reactive:some of the more lightly substituted lower members are highly flammable; the more highly substituted may be used as fire suppressants, not always with the anticipated results. - may react with the lighter divalent metals to produce more reactive compounds analogous to Grignard reagents. - may produce explosive compounds following prolonged contact with metallic or other azides - may react on contact with potassium or its alloys - although apparently stable on contact with a wide rage of halocarbons, reaction products may be shock-sensitive and may explode with great violence on light impact; severity generally increases with the degree of halocarbon substitution and potassium-sodium alloys give extremely sensitive mixtures . - Segregate from alcohol, water. - Compressed gases may contain a large amount of kinetic energy over and above that potentially available from the energy of reaction produced by the gas in chemical reaction with other substances. STORAGE REQUIREMENTS ■ - Keep dry to avoid corrosion of cans. Corrosion may result in container perforation and internal pressure may eject contents of can.
