Administrative data

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air.  If breathing is impiared,

assisted respiration may be indicated.  Supplemental oxygen

may be indicated.  Seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediatley flush eyes with large quantities of water for a

minimum of 15 minutes.  Use fingers to assure that the

eyelids are seperated and that the eye is being irrigated.

It is also recommended a medical check is performed.

Emergency measure - Skin: Immediatley wash skin with soap and water for at least 15

minutes.  If skin irritation occurs seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Wash out mouth with water and give water to drink.  Do not

induce vomiting.  Seek medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, water spray or fog, dry chemical or alcohol

foam.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg oxides of carbon and

nitrogen) However, there is no experimental evidence to

support the anticipated combustion products.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to

the relevant national or international standards as

mentioned in section 2.3.10.

Spilled material should be contained and pumped into steel

containers for recovery or disposal.  Vermiculite absorbent

should be spread over the spill area to absorb as much as

the remaining product as possible.  Scoop up soild absorbent

for waste disposal.  The area should then be washed down to

dilute and remove traces of material.  Remove all sources of

ignition.

Dispose of waste material by incineration.

Handling and storage

Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.  Use adequate

ventilation and protective clothing, including chemical

goggles and neoprene or butyl rubber gloves.  Wash

thoroughly after handling.

Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate

international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166

When necessary appropriate respiratory protection should be

used. e.g. a vapour mask conforming to EN405 FFA1.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Keep containers tightly closed.  Minimise exposure to

atmosphere.  Store in a cool, dry area.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 5 gallon steel pails, 55 gallon steel pails and 1000L

Intermediate Bulk Containers (composite with plastic inner

and steel outer).

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Methods of recycling of the final foam product involve

incineration for energy value or griding and recombining

with virgin polyol for other foam applications.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Product when shipped as an active form could be diluted with

water and absorbed by any type of absorbant material.

Dilution of the product is the best method to render the

product harmless.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: No.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration under controlled conditions, in an adequate

facility, and accordance with local regulation.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: No.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None.
