SECTION 4- FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1 Description of first aid measures
Eye:
Skin:
Inhalation:
Ingestion:
Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyes open with fingers and
occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. Use lukewarm water if possible. If present and easy to do so, remove contact
lenses, If irritation persists, get medical attention.
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water. Foam will stick to skin, gently wipe product from skin
with a damp cloth and wash with plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before
reuse. Call a physician if irritation persists.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Obtain medical
attention.
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical advice/attention.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Eye:
Skin:
Inhalation
Ingestion:
Chronic:
May cause eye irritation.
May cause skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness, edema, drying, defatting and cracking of the skin. May cause an
allergic reaction. Prolonged skin exposure is unlikely to result in absorption of harmful amounts
May be harmful if inhaled. May cause respiratory irritation. May cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if
inhaled. Inhalation of propellant may cause headache, lightheadedness and lethargy.
May be harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation: stomach distress, nausea, or vomiting.
Chlorinated paraffin (C14-C17) may cause harm to breastfed children. Refer to section 12.2
4.3 Notes to the physician
Symptoms may not appear immediately. If case of an accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show label or SDS if
possible).

SECTION 5- FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable methods of extinction: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, Halon 1211 and water spray or fog.
Unsuitable methods of extinction: Do not use water jets and high pressure water as these may spread the fire
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Contains compressed gas. Eliminate all ignition sources. Closed containers may explode due to buildup of pressure when exposed to
extreme heat. Aerosol cans exposed to fire or high temperature can rupture and rocket. Cured foam will burn in the presence of heat,
oxygen and an ignition source.
5.3 Advice to firefighters
Products of combustion: May include and are not limited to: oxides of carbon, oxides of nitrogen, hydrogen fluoride, and traces of
hydrogen cyanide.
Keep upwind of fire. Wear full fire-fighting turn-out gear (full Bunker gear) and respiratory protection (SCBA). Use water spray to keep fireexposed containers cool. Containers may explode if heated.
SECTION 6- ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment recommended in Section 8. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected
personnel. Eliminate sources of ignition.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter sewers, drains, or waterways
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Method for containment: Uncured product is very sticky; carefully remove the bulk of the foam by scraping it up and then immediately
remove the residue with a rag and solvent such as Handi-Cleaner, mineral spirits, acetone (nail polish remover), paint thinner, etc. Once
the product is cured it can only be removed mechanically by scraping, buffing, etc. Use appropriate PPE.
Methods for cleaning up: Scoop up material and place in a disposal container. Dispose of as plastic waste in accordance with all
applicable guidelines and regulations. Vapors can accumulate in low areas. Provide ventilation
6.4 Reference to other sections
For indications about waste treatment, see Section 13
SECTION 7- HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Pressurized container: do not pierce or burn, even after use. Container may explode if heated. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not
breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Do not swallow. Use only in a well-ventilated area or outdoors. Avoid welding or other “hot
work” in the vicinity of exposed cured foam. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. (See section 8)
General hygiene advice: Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash hands before eating, drinking or smoking.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities
Store in a dry place. Ideal use temperature is 65F to 80F (18C to 27C). Do not expose aerosol cans to open flame or store at
temperatures above 122F (50C). Excessive heat can cause premature aging of components resulting in a shorter shelf life. Storage
below 55F (12.7C) may affect foam quality if chemicals are not warmed to room temperature before using. Protect containers from
physical abuse. Keep containers upright. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.

8.2 Exposure Controls:
Engineering measures: Use ventilation adequate to keep exposures below recommended exposure limits.
Eye/face Protection: Wear protective safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
Hand Protection: Use chemically resistant gloves (i.e. Nitrile gloves). Nitrile/butadiene rubber, butyl rubber, polyethylene, PVC (vinyl), or
neoprene gloves are also effective. Glove selection should take into account potential body reactions to certain materials and
manufacturer’s instructions for use. Break through time of selected gloves must be greater than the intended use period.
Other Protective Equipment: Use clothing that protects against dermal exposure. Appropriate protective clothing varies depending on the
potential for exposure. To ensure proper skin protection, wear PPE in such a manner that no skin is exposed.

Respiratory Protection: If atmospheric levels are expected to exceed the exposure levels, use a NIOSH approved air purifying respirator
equipped with an organic vapor cartridge and particulate filter. If atmospheric levels exceed 10 times the TLV or PEL level for which an airpurifying respirator is effective, use a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR). The type of respiratory protection selected must comply with
the requirements set forth in OSHA’s Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134).
Hygiene Measures: An eye wash station or portable eye wash station should be in the area. Wash hands thoroughly after use, before
eating, drinking or using the lavatory. Employees/Users should be educated and trained in the safe use and handling of this product.

11.2 Delayed, Immediate, and Chronic Effects of Short and Long Term Exposure
MDI and PMDI: IARC Group 3 carcinogen- Not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans. Not listed as a carcinogen by ACGIH,
OSHA or NTP. MDI/PMDI did not cause birth defects in laboratory animals; fetal effects occurred only at high doses which were toxic to the
mother. Lung tumors have been observed in laboratory animals exposed to respirable aerosol droplets of MDI/PMDI (6mg/m3) for their
lifetime. Tumors occurred concurrently with respiratory irritation and lung injury. Current exposure guidelines are expected to protect
against these effects. Chlorinated paraffins (C14-C16) may accumulate in body tissues and fluids rich in lipid content; therefore, this
material may cause harm to breastfed children.

Product is not readily biodegradable. In aquatic and terrestrial environments, this material reacts with water, which forms predominately
insoluble polyureas.
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
Bioaccumulation potential is low
12.4 Mobility in soil
