4. First-aid Measures
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air, if not breathing give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen and get immediate medical attention. Skin: After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap. If clothing is contaminated, remove and launder before reuse. Immediate medical attention required. Eyes: Immediately flush the eye(s) with lukewarm, gently flowing water for 15 minutes or until the chemical is removed. Get immediate medical attention if irritation persists. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have casualty lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Seek medical attention immediately.

5. Fire-fighting Measures
Suitable extinguishing media: carbon dioxide, dry powder, foam, water spray Hazardous combustion products: Carbon and nitrogen oxides. Hazards during fire-fighting: Standard procedure for chemical fires. The product is slippery when wet. Protective equipment for fire-fighting: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Cleanup: Pick up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, earth etc.). Place into approved waste containers. Wear suitable protective equipment. Should not be released into the environment. Spills are very slippery.

Safety Data Sheet

ZETAG 8848FS
Revision date : 05.07.2010 Version: 1.2 Page: 3/6 (30510570/SDU_GEN_CA/EN) As with all industrial chemicals, use good industrial practices when handling. Avoid eye, skin, and clothing contact. Do not inhale. Do not taste or swallow. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Storage

General advice: Keep container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Avoid extremes of temperature. Keep from freezing. > for industrial use only <

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Exposure Guidelines

Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light (64742-47-8)

ACGIH

200 mg/m3 TWA: 200 mg/m3 Non-aerosol (as total hydrocarbon vapor) P: Application restricted to conditions in which there are negligible aerosol exposures. SKIN_DES: Non-aerosol (as total hydrocarbon vapor) Can be absorbed through the skin

Engineering Controls: Work in well ventilated areas. Do not breathe vapors or mist. Ensure good ventilation and local exhaust.
Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection: Wear a NIOSH-certified respirator as necessary. Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash goggles) (EN 166) Body protection: Wear chemical resistant gloves and protective clothing. General safety and hygiene measures: Eye wash station and safety shower should be available in immediate work area., Select additional protective equipment based upon potential for exposure.
