- Inhalation
- Move victim to fresh air. Apply resuscitation if victim is not breathing.
- Skin Contact
- If material is splashed onto the skin, remove any contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists transport to hospital or doctor.
- Eye Contact
- If material is splashed into eyes, immediately, flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes, ensuring eye lids are held open. If irritation persists transport to hospital or doctor.
- Other Information
- Additional information for Skin If product contains less than 25 % phenol, then remove any contaminated clothing, wash thoroughly with soap and water, then methylated spirits. If product contains greater than 25 % phenol, then remove any contaminated clothing, swab repeatedly with glycerin, PEG (polyethylene glycol) or PEG - methylated spirits mixture or if necessary or available methylated spirits alone.
5. Firefighting Measures
Suitable extinguishing equipment
- Fire
- Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding fire situation.
- HAZCHEM
- Not available.
Special protective equipment and precautions for fire fighters
- Decomposes on heating emitting oxides of carbon.
- Emits smoke and fumes when heated to decomposition. Fire fighters to wear Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) in confined spaces, in oxygen deficient atmospheres or if exposed to products of decomposition. Full protective clothing is also recommended.
- If safe to do so, move undamaged containers from fire area.
6. Accidental Release Measures
- Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
- Material may be slippery when spilt. Walk cautiously. Ventilate area. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact, as outlined under personal protection in this MSDS.
- Environmental precautions
- Not available.
- Methods and materials for containment and clean up
- Bund area using sand or soil - to prevent run off into drains and waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand, vermiculite or other inert material). Collect and seal in properly labeled containers for disposal.
7. Handling and Storage
- Precautions for safe handling
- Not available.
- Conditions for safe storage
- Store in a cool place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from sources of heat or ignition. Store away from oxidising agents. Keep containers closed, when not using the product. Store in original packages as approved by manufacturer.
8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

- Engineering controls
- Maintain adequate ventilation at all times. In most circumstances natural ventilation systems are adequate unless the material is heated, reacted or otherwise changed in some type of chemical reaction, then the use of a local exhaust ventilation system is recommended.
Personal protective equipment
- Eye and face protection
- Chemical goggles or faceshield to protect eyes.
- Skin protection
- Not normally required, however, if handling large quantities or if the skin is likely to be exposed to this product over prolonged periods, then the use of PVC or natural rubber is recommended.
- Body protection
- No information available.
- Respiratory protection
- Avoid breathing of vapours/gases. Select and use respirators in accordance with AS/NZS 1715/1716. The use of a dust mask (disposable) or a half-face respirator with P1 filter is recommended. Filter capacity and respirator type depends on exposure levels and type of contaminant. If entering spaces where the airborne concentration of a contaminant is unknown then the use of a Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with positive pressure air supply complying with AS/NZS 1715 / 1716, or any other acceptable International Standard is recommended.
