4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation : Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If not breathing,
if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or
oxygen by trained personnel. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get
medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway.
Ingestion : Wash out mouth with water. If material has been swallowed and the exposed
person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink. If vomiting occurs, the
head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. If unconscious,
place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open
airway.
Skin contact : Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and
shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse.
Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Continue to rinse for at least 15
minutes. Get medical attention.
Protection of first-aiders : No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. It
may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Notes to physician : No specific treatment. Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist
immediately if large quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
See section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable
Not suitable
Special protective
equipment for fire-fighters
: Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.
: None known.
: Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure
mode.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions : No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Avoid breathing vapour or
mist. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is
inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8).
Environmental precautions : Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Small spill : Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dilute with water and mop
up if water-soluble or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate
waste disposal container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large spill : Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach the release
from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined
areas. Wash spillages into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows.
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand,
earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal
according to local regulations (see section 13). Dispose of via a licensed waste
disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard
as the spilt product. Note: see section 1 for emergency contact information and
section 13 for waste disposal.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling : Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8). Eating, drinking
and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and
processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and
smoking. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing
vapour or mist. Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from
a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain
product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Storage : Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from
direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible
materials (see section 10) and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and
sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully
resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabelled containers.
Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
Packaging materials
Recommended : Use original container.
Specific uses : Scale Inhibitor

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Exposure limit values
Ingredient name Occupational exposure limits
No exposure limit value known.

Recommended monitoring : If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal, workplace
procedures atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness
of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory
protective equipment. Reference should be made to European Standard EN 689 for
methods for the assessment of exposure by inhalation to chemical agents and
national guidance documents for methods for the determination of hazardous
substances.
Occupational exposure : No special ventilation requirements. Good general ventilation should be sufficient to
controls control worker exposure to airborne contaminants. If this product contains
ingredients with exposure limits, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or
other engineering controls to keep worker exposure below any recommended or
statutory limits.
Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Wash
contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
Respiratory protection : Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must
be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and
the safe working limits of the selected respirator.
Hand protection : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should
be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates
this is necessary.
Eye protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists or
dusts.
Skin protection : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task
being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist
before handling this product.
Environmental exposure : Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
controls they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation.
