4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Poisons Information Centre: Phone 131 126
Swallowed: If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons
Information Centre. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting due
to the hazard of solvent aspiration into the lungs. Rinse mouth
with water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person.
Eye: Immediately hold the eyes open and wash continuously for
at least 10 minutes with fresh running water. Ensure irrigation
under eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
Seek medical advice. Removal of contact lenses after an eye
injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
Skin: Remove any contaminated clothing and flush area with
water. Wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water. Seek
medical attention in the event of irritation.
Inhaled: Remove from the source of vapour, spray or fumes.
Remove patient to open space or fresh air, rest patient, keep
warm and seek medical advice. Give artificial respiration if
breathing stops. Provide oxygen if required.
Advice to Doctor: After vomiting, give water, milk or milk of
magnesia to drink.
5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire/Explosion Hazard: DLX is flammable.
Extinguishing media: Water fog, fine water spray, foam or dry
agent. Carbon dioxide and sand. Do not use water jets.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Firefighters should use self
contained breathing apparatus and protective gloves in case
of fire. In case of fire, the material can be violently or even
explosively reactive; wear appropriate protection gear. In case
of fire, prevent by any means possible spillage from entering
drains or water courses. Use water spray to cool containers.
Fire fighting PPE: SCBA and structural fire fighter’s uniform may
provide limited protection. Fully encapsulating, gas-tight suits
should be worn for maximum protection.
Fire/Explosion/Decomposition Hazards: No unusual fire or
explosion hazards. When heated to decomposition, acrid
smoke and fumes as well as CO and CO2 are emitted.
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Shut off all possible sources of ignition. Ventilate the spillage
area thoroughly. Personnel involved in clean-up require
adequate skin, eye and respiratory protection. Pump the liquid
away and soak up the rest with an absorbent, non-flammable
material. Wash the contaminated area with water and
detergent. Prevent entry into waterways, drains or confined
areas.
7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Storage and Transport: Keep the container tightly closed. Take
precautionary measures against static discharges. Store in a
cool, well-ventilated , low-fire risk area, away from sources of
heat or ignition. Keep away from strong oxidising agents. Keep
out of reach of children.
Reactivity Hazards: Thermal oxidative degradation products
include carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2)
Incompatibility (Materials to avoid for purposes of transport,
handling and storage only): Avoid all ignition sources. Vapour
may form explosive mixtures with air. Class 3 Flammable
Liquids shall not be loaded in the same vehicle with: Class 1,
2.1, 2.3, 4.2, 5.1, 5.2 or 7 substances.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
