· If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
· If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
· Observe the patient carefully.
· Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
· Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can comfortably drink.
· Seek medical advice.
■ If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
· Wash out immediately 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.
· Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
· Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
■ If skin contact occurs:
· Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
· Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
· Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
· If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
· 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.
· Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
· Transport to hospital, or doctor.
■ Treat symptomatically.
· Water spray or fog. · Foam. · Dry chemical powder. · BCF (where regulations permit). · Carbon dioxide.
· Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. · Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves for fire only. · Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. · Use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area. · DO NOT approach containers suspected to be hot. · Cool fire exposed containers with water spray from a protected location. · If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. · Equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use.
· The material is not readily combustible under normal conditions. · However, it will break down under fire conditions and the organic component may burn. · Not considered to be a significant fire risk. · Heat may cause expansion or decomposition with violent rupture of containers. · Decomposes on heating and may produce toxic fumes of carbon monoxide (CO). · May emit acrid smoke. Other decomposition products include: carbon dioxide (CO2).
■ Avoid contamination with strong oxidising agents as ignition may result.
None

| Chemical goggles. | Neoprene. |
· Clean up all spills immediately. · Avoid breathing vapours and contact with skin and eyes. · Control personal contact by using protective equipment. · Contain and absorb spill with sand, earth, inert material or vermiculite. · Wipe up. · Place in a suitable, labelled container for waste disposal.
■ Minor hazard. · Clear area of personnel. · Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. · Control personal contact by using protective equipment as required. · Prevent spillage from entering drains or water ways. · Contain spill with sand, earth or vermiculite. · Collect recoverable product into labelled containers for recycling. · Absorb remaining product with sand, earth or vermiculite and place in appropriate containers for disposal. · Wash area and prevent runoff into drains or waterways. · If contamination of drains or waterways occurs, advise emergency services.
Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS.
· Limit all unnecessary personal contact.
· Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs.
· Use in a well-ventilated area.
· When handling DO NOT eat, drink or smoke.
· Always wash hands with soap and water after handling.
· Avoid physical damage to containers.
· Use good occupational work practice.
· Observe manufacturer's storing and handling recommendations.
· Polyethylene or polypropylene container.
· Packing as recommended by manufacturer.
· Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.
■ Avoid storage with oxidisers.
· Store in original containers.
· Keep containers securely sealed.
· Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area.
· DO NOT allow to freeze.
· Store away from incompatible materials.
· Protect containers against physical damage and check regularly for leaks.
· Observe manufacturer's storing and handling recommendations.
Store at 5 to 40 deg.C.
0890 031 - WURTH SKS GREY: ■ None assigned for mixture or identified for ingredient(s).
· Safety glasses with side shields; or as required, · Chemical goggles. · Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
· Neoprene gloves.
· Overalls. · Eyewash unit. The local concentration of material, quantity and conditions of use determine the type of personal protective equipment required. For further information consult site specific CHEMWATCH data (if available), or your Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.
■ General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. If risk of overexposure exists, wear SAA approved respirator. Correct fit is essential to obtain adequate protection. Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage areas.

■ Product is considered stable and hazardous polymerisation will not occur.
For incompatible materials - refer to Section 7 - Handling and Storage.
■ Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments.
■ The liquid may produce eye discomfort causing smarting, pain and redness.
■ The liquid may produce skin discomfort following prolonged contact. Defatting and/or drying of the skin may lead to dermatitis.
■ Not normally a hazard due to non-volatile nature of product.
■ Principal routes of exposure are by accidental skin and eye contact and by inhalation of vapours especially at higher temperatures. As with any chemical product, contact with unprotected bare skin; inhalation of vapour, mist or dust in work place atmosphere; or ingestion in any form, should be avoided by observing good occupational work practice.
■ unless otherwise specified data extracted from RTECS - Register of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances.

■ Classification of the preparation and its individual components has drawn on official and authoritative sources as well as independent review by the Chemwatch Classification committee using available literature references.
A list of reference resources used to assist the committee may be found at:

■ The (M)SDS is a Hazard Communication tool and should be used to assist in the Risk Assessment. Many factors determine whether the reported Hazards are Risks in the workplace or other settings. Risks may be determined by reference to Exposures Scenarios. Scale of use, frequency of use and current or available engineering controls must be considered.
