Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES<br />
SKIN<br />
■ If skin contact occurs:<br />
• Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.<br />
• Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).<br />
• Seek medical attention in event of irritation.<br />
INHALED<br />
• If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.<br />
• Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.<br />
• Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.<br />
• Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained.<br />
Perform CPR if necessary.<br />
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN<br />
■ When systemic reaction to local anaesthetic occurs, steps should be taken to maintain circulation and respiration and control convulsions. A clear<br />
airway should be established and oxygen given together with assisted ventilation if necessary.<br />
Metabolism of amide-type anaesthetics occurs in the liver and in some cases in the kidney. Because these undergo extensive and rapid hepatic<br />
metabolism, only about 1/3 of an oral dose reaches the systemic circulation.<br />
Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES<br />
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA<br />
• There is no restriction on the type of extinguisher which may be used.<br />
• Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding area.<br />
FIRE FIGHTING<br />
• Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.<br />
• Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus.<br />
• Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.<br />
• Use water delivered as a fine spray to control fire and cool adjacent area.<br />
FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD<br />
• The material is not readily combustible under normal conditions.<br />
• However, it will break down under fire conditions and the organic component may burn.<br />
• Not considered to be a significant fire risk.<br />
• Heat may cause expansion or decomposition with violent rupture of containers.<br />
Combustion products include: carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen chloride, phosgene, nitrogen oxides (NOx), other pyrolysis products<br />
typical of burning organic material.<br />
May emit poisonous fumes.<br />
May emit corrosive fumes.<br />
FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY<br />
• Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result.<br />
HAZCHEM<br />
None<br />
PERSONAL PROTECTION<br />
Glasses:<br />
Chemical goggles.<br />
Respirator:<br />
Particulate<br />
Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES<br />
MINOR SPILLS<br />
• Remove all ignition sources.<br />
• Clean up all spills immediately.<br />
• Avoid breathing vapours and contact with skin and eyes.<br />
• Control personal contact by using protective equipment.<br />
MAJOR SPILLS<br />
■ Moderate hazard.<br />
• Clear area of personnel and move upwind.<br />
• Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.<br />
• Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves.<br />
• Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.<br />
Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the <strong>MSDS</strong>.<br />
