4. FIRST AID MEASURES


For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre (e.g. phone Australia 131 126; New Zealand 0800 764 766) or a doctor.

Inhalation:
Remove victim from area of exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and loosen remaining
clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until fully recovered. If patient
finds breathing difficult and develops a bluish discolouration of the skin (which suggests a lack of oxygen in the blood -
cyanosis), ensure airways are clear of any obstruction and have a qualified person give oxygen through a face mask.
Apply artificial respiration if patient is not breathing. Seek immediate medical advice.
Skin Contact:
If skin contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with running water. If irritation occurs seek
medical advice.

Safety Data Sheet

Eye Contact:
If in eyes, wash out immediately with water. In all cases of eye contamination it is a sensible precaution to seek
medical advice.

Ingestion:
Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water. Seek medical advice.

Medical attention and special treatment:


Treat symptomatically.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES


Hazards from combustion products:
Flammable gas. On burning will emit toxic fumes.

Precautions for fire fighters and special protective equipment:


Heating can cause expansion or decomposition of the material, which can lead to the containers exploding. If safe to do
so, remove containers from the path of fire. Keep containers cool with water spray. Fire fighters to wear self-contained
breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of combustion.

Suitable Extinguishing Media:


Fine water spray, normal foam, dry agent (carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder).

Hazchem Code: 2YE

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES


Methods and materials for containment and clean up:
Shut off all possible sources of ignition. In the event of an aerosol can developing a leak, allow to fully discharge in the
open air before disposal.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE


Conditions for safe storage:
Store in 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 in use - check regularly for leaks.

Precautions for safe handling:


Avoid skin and eye contact and breathing in vapour, mists and aerosols. Ensure spray nozzle is always directed away
from the user. May form flammable vapour mixtures with air. All potential sources of ignition (open flames, pilot lights,
furnaces, spark producing switches and electrical equipment etc) must be eliminated both in and near the work area. Do
NOT smoke. Vapour may travel a considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION


Occupational Exposure Limits: No value assigned for this specific material by the National Occupational Health
and Safety Commission. However, Exposure Standard(s) for constituent(s):
3
Butane: 8hr TWA = 1900 mg/m (800 ppm)
Propane: Asphyxiant
3
White spirits: 8hr TWA = 790 mg/m

Safety Data Sheet

As published by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission.

No Exposure Standards assigned to other constituents.

TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working week
over an entire working life.

Asphyxiant - gases which can lead to reduction of oxygen concentration by displacement or dilution. The minimum
oxygen content in air should be 18% by volume under normal atmospheric pressure.

These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept to as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as fine
dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative toxicity.

Engineering controls:
Ensure ventilation is adequate and that air concentrations of components are controlled below quoted Exposure Standards. Use in well
ventilated areas. Keep containers closed when not in use. An asphyxiant gas which can lead to the displacement or dilution of oxygen.
The minimum oxygen content in air should be 18% by volume under normal atmospheric pressure.

Personal Protective Equipment:


The selection of PPE is dependant on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work
situation, the physical form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors.

Selleys Factory Safe Handling Code: Green

MANUFACTURE, PACKAGING AND TRANSPORT: Green - Wear overalls (or 'issued' long pants and long sleeve
tops), safety boots, gloves and safety glasses. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the
toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage or re-use.
For leaking aerosol cans: Blue - Wear overalls (or 'issued' long pants and long sleeve tops), safety boots, gloves and face
shield or chemical goggles. If risk of inhalation exists, wear organic vapour/particulate respirator meeting the requirements
of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716.
FOR CONSUMER USE: Use with adequate ventilation. No special personal protective equipment required.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION


No adverse health effects expected if the product is handled in accordance with this Safety Data Sheet and the
product label. Symptoms or effects that may arise if the product is mishandled and overexposure occurs are:

Ingestion: Swallowing can result in nausea, vomiting and central nervous system depression. If
the victim is showing signs of central system depression (like those of drunkeness)
there is greater likelihood of the patient breathing in vomit and causing damage to the
lungs.

Eye contact: May be an eye irritant.

Skin contact: Contact with skin may result in irritation. Will have a degreasing action on the skin.
Repeated or prolonged skin contact may lead to irritant contact dermatitis.

Inhalation: Breathing in vapour can result in headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, and possible
nausea. Breathing in high concentrations can produce central nervous system
depression, which can lead to loss of co-ordination, impaired judgement and if
exposure is prolonged, unconsciousness. Intentional misuse by deliberately
concentrating and breathing the contents can be harmful or fatal.
