First-aid measures

Description of First Aid Measures:

On contact with eyes : Immediately flush with water. Obtain medical attention immediately.

On skin contact : Wipe off and wash with soap and water. Obtain medical attention.

If inhaled : Remove to fresh air. Obtain medical attention.

On ingestion : Obtain medical attention.

Most important

symptoms/effects, acute

and delayed

: Harmful if swallowed.

Causes serious eye damage.

Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

On large fires use dry chemical, foam or water spray (fog). On small fires use carbon

dioxide (CO2), dry chemical or water spray. Water can be used to cool fire exposed

containers.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

None known.

Hazards during fire fighting:

None known.

Hazardous Combustion Products:

Thermal breakdown of this product during fire or very high heat conditions may evolve

the following decomposition products: Silica. Carbon oxides and traces of incompletely

burned carbon compounds. Formaldehyde. Nitrogen products.

Special protective equipment/procedures:

A self-contained respirator and protective clothing should be worn. Determine the need to

evacuate or isolate the area according to your local emergency plan. Use water spray to

keep fire exposed containers cool.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear proper protective equipment.

Environmental precautions:

Do not empty into drains. Prevent from spreading or entering into drains, ditches or rivers

by using sand, earth or other appropriate barriers.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

Determine the need to evacuate or isolate the area according to your local emergency plan.

Very large spills should be contained by bunding, etc... procedures. Mop, wipe or soak up

with absorbent material and place in a container with a lid. The spilled product produces

an extremely slippery surface.

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling:

General ventilation is required. Local ventilation is required. Avoid skin and eye contact.

Do not breathe vapour. Do not ingest. Do not empty into drains.

Advice on storage:

Do not store with oxidizing agents.

Storage temperature: minimum 0 °C, maximum 40 °C

Specific uses:

Refer to technical data sheet available on request.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

Name CAS-No. Exposure Limits

None of the components have assigned exposure limits.

Exposure controls

Engineering Controls : Ventilation : Refer to Section 7.1 of MSDS.

Personal protection equipment

Respiratory protection : Suitable respiratory protection should be worn if the product is used in large quantities,

confined spaces or in other circumstances where the OEL may be approached or

exceeded.

The choice of a filter type depends on the amount and type of chemical being handled in

the workplace. Regarding filter characteristics, contact your respiratory protection

supplier.

Hand protection : Chemical protective gloves should be worn: Silver shield(TM). 4H(TM). Regarding

glove's breakthrough time,contact your chemical protective glove supplier.

Eye/face protection : Face shield or safety goggles.

Skin protection : Wear impervious overalls in circumstances where significant skin contact can occur.

Hygiene measures : Exercise good industrial hygiene practice. Wash after handling, especially before eating,

drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing.

Additional information : These precautions are for room temperature handling. Use at elevated temperature or

aerosol/spray applications may require added precautions. For further information

regarding the use of silicones / organic oils in consumer aerosol applications, please refer

to the guidance document regarding the use of these types of materials in consumer

aerosol applications that has been developed by the silicone industry (www.SEHSC.com)

or contact the Dow Corning customer service group.

Environmental exposure controls: Refer to section 6 and 12 of MSDS.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity:

None known.

Stability:

Stable under normal usage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions:

None known.

Conditions to avoid:

None established.

Materials to avoid:

Can react with strong oxidising agents.

Hazardous decomposition products:

Thermal breakdown of this product during fire or very high heat conditions may evolve

the following decomposition products: Silica. Carbon oxides and traces of incompletely

burned carbon compounds. Formaldehyde. Nitrogen products.

Disposal considerations

Product and packaging disposal:

Dispose of in accordance with local regulations. According to the European Waste

Catalogue, Waste Codes are not product specific, but application specific. Waste codes

should be assigned by the user, preferably in discussion with the waste disposal

authorities.
