4. FIRST AID MEASURES

If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre (Phone Australia 131 126, New Zealand 0800
764 766).

Inhalation: Remove victim from 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. Seek medical advice if effects persist.

Skin Contact: If skin or hair contact occurs, immediately remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair
with running water. Continue flushing with water until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a
Doctor; or for 15 minutes and transport to Doctor or Hospital.

Eye contact: Immediately irrigate with copious quantities of water for 15 minutes. Eyelids to be held open.
Remove clothing if contaminated and wash skin. Urgently seek medical assistance. Transport to hospital or
medical centre.

Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water to drink.
Never give anything by the mouth to an unconscious patient. If vomiting occurs give further water. Seek medical
advice.

PPE for First Aiders: Wear safety shoes, overalls, gloves, safety glasses, dust mask. Available information
suggests that gloves made from nitrile rubber should be suitable for intermittent contact. However, due to

variations in glove construction and local conditions, the user should make a final assessment. Always wash
hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective
equipment before storing or re-using.

Notes to physician: Treat symptomatically. Can cause corneal burns.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Hazchem Code: Not applicable.

Suitable extinguishing media: If material is involved in a fire use water fog (or if unavailable fine water spray),
alcohol resistant foam, standard foam, dry agent (carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder).

Specific hazards: Non-combustible material.

Fire fighting further advice: Not applicable.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

SMALL SPILLS
Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination. Avoid inhalation of vapours or dust. Wipe up
with absorbent (clean rag or paper towels). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal.

LARGE SPILLS
Clear area of all unprotected personnel. Slippery when spilt. Avoid accidents, clean up immediately. Wear
protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contamination and the inhalation of dust. Work up wind or increase
ventilation. Cover with damp absorbent (inert material, sand or soil). Sweep or vacuum up, but avoid generating
dust. Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal. If contamination of crops, sewers or
waterways has occurred advise local emergency services.

Dangerous Goods - Initial Emergency Response Guide No: Not applicable

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling: Avoid eye contact and skin contact. Avoid inhalation of dust.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from foodstuffs. Store
away from incompatible materials described in Section 10. Store away from sources of heat and/or ignition.
Store locked up. Keep container standing upright. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for
spills.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

National occupational exposure limits:

TWA STEL NOTICES

ppm mg/m3 ppm mg/m3

Calcium oxide - 2 - - -
Portland cement - 10 - - -

As published by Safe Work Australia.

Product Name: FOSROC CONBEXTRA GP Reference No: PARGHSEN000102

Issued: 22 October 2021 Version: 3.0 Page 3 of 7
 Safety Data Sheet

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

STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) - the average airborne concentration over a 15 minute period which should not
be exceeded at any time during a normal eight-hour workday.

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.

If the directions for use on the product label are followed, exposure of individuals using the product should not
exceed the above standard. The standard was created for workers who are routinely, potentially exposed during
product manufacture.

Biological Limit Values: As per the "National Model Regulations for the Control of Workplace Hazardous
Substances (Safe Work Australia)" the ingredients in this material do not have a Biological Limit Allocated.

Engineering Measures: Ensure ventilation is adequate to maintain air concentrations below Exposure
Standards. Use only in well ventilated areas. Avoid generating and inhaling dusts. Use with local exhaust
ventilation or while wearing dust mask.

Personal Protection Equipment: SAFETY SHOES, OVERALLS, GLOVES, SAFETY GLASSES, DUST MASK.

Wear safety shoes, overalls, gloves, safety glasses, dust mask. Available information suggests that gloves made
from nitrile rubber should be suitable for intermittent contact. However, due to variations in glove construction
and local conditions, the user should make a final assessment. Always wash hands before smoking, eating,
drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storing or re-
using.

Hygiene measures: Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. When using do not eat, drink or
smoke. Wash hands prior to eating, drinking or smoking. Avoid contact with clothing. Avoid eye contact and skin
contact. Avoid inhalation of dust. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation
location.
