General advice: First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and use the
recommended protective clothing (chemical resistant gloves, splash protection). If potential for
exposure exists refer to Section 8 for specific personal protective equipment.

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air; if effects occur, consult a physician.

Skin contact: Wash off with plenty of water. Suitable emergency safety shower facility should be
immediately available.

Eye contact: Flush eyes thoroughly with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses after the
initial 1-2 minutes and continue flushing for several additional minutes. If effects occur, consult a
physician, preferably an ophthalmologist. Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be available in
work area.

Ingestion: If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Aside from the information found
under Description of first aid measures (above) and Indication of immediate medical attention and
special treatment needed (below), any additional important symptoms and effects are described in
Section 11: Toxicology Information.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Notes to physician: If burn is present, treat as any thermal burn, after decontamination. No specific
antidote. Treatment of exposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical
condition of the patient.

5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media: Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon
dioxide fire extinguishers. Foam. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred. General purpose
synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but will be less effective.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Hazardous combustion products: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition
to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating. Combustion
products may include and are not limited to: Carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide.
Product name: VORANOL*4701 Polyol Issue Date: 07/09/2017

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Container may rupture from gas generation in a fire situation.
Violent steam generation or eruption may occur upon application of direct water stream to hot liquids.

Advice for firefighters

Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Use water
spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is out and danger of reignition has
passed. Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider the use of unmanned hose
holders or monitor nozzles. Immediately withdraw all personnel from the area in case of rising sound
from venting safety device or discoloration of the container. Do not use direct water stream. May
spread fire. Move container from fire area if this is possible without hazard. Burning liquids may be
moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage. Contain fire water
run-off if possible. Fire water run-off, if not contained, may cause environmental damage. Review the
"Accidental Release Measures" and the "Ecological Information" sections of this (M)SDS.

Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing

apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers,
boots, and gloves). Avoid contact with this material during fire fighting operations. If contact is likely,
change to full chemical resistant fire fighting clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus. If this is
not available, wear full chemical resistant clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus and fight
fire from a remote location. For protective equipment in post-fire or non-fire clean-up situations, refer
to the relevant sections.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Isolate area. Keep
unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering the area. Spilled material may cause a slipping
hazard. Refer to section 7, Handling, for additional precautionary measures. Use appropriate safety
equipment. For additional information, refer to Section 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection.

Environmental precautions: Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or
groundwater. See Section 12, Ecological Information.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Contain spilled material if possible.
Absorb with materials such as: Dirt. Sand. Collect in suitable and properly labeled containers. Wash
the spill site with water. See Section 13, Disposal Considerations, for additional information.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling: Avoid contact with eyes. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep
container closed. Product shipped/handled hot can cause thermal burns. This material is hygroscopic
in nature. See Section 8, EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION.
Spills of these organic materials on hot fibrous insulations may lead to lowering of the autoignition
temperatures possibly resulting in spontaneous combustion.

Conditions for safe storage: Protect from atmospheric moisture. Store in a dry place. Avoid
prolonged exposure to heat and air. Store in the following material(s): Carbon steel. Stainless steel.
Polypropylene. Polyethylene-lined container. Teflon. Glass-lined container. Aluminum. Plasite 3066
lined container. Plasite 3070 lined container. 316 stainless steel. See Section 10 for more specific
information.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters
Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist.
Exposure limits have not been established for those substances listed in the composition, if any have
been disclosed.

Exposure controls
Engineering controls: Use local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain
airborne levels below exposure limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure
limit requirements or guidelines, general ventilation should be sufficient for most operations. Local
exhaust ventilation may be necessary for some operations.

Individual protection measures

Eye/face protection: Use safety glasses (with side shields). Safety glasses (with side
shields) should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent. When handling hot material: Use
chemical goggles. Chemical goggles should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent. Wear a
face-shield which allows use of chemical goggles, or wear a full-face respirator, to protect face
and eyes when there is any likelihood of splashes.
Skin protection
Hand protection: Use gloves chemically resistant to this material when prolonged or
frequently repeated contact could occur. Use chemical resistant gloves classified
under Standard EN374: Protective gloves against chemicals and micro-organisms. If
hands are cut or scratched, use gloves chemically resistant to this material even for
brief exposures. Use gloves with insulation for thermal protection (EN 407), when
needed. Examples of preferred glove barrier materials include: Butyl rubber. Natural
rubber ("latex"). Neoprene. Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR").
Polyethylene. Ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate ("EVAL"). Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA").
Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl"). When prolonged or frequently repeated contact
may occur, a glove with a protection class of 3 or higher (breakthrough time greater
than 60 minutes according to EN 374) is recommended. Glove thickness alone is not
a good indicator of the level of protection a glove provides against a chemical
substance as this level of protection is also highly dependent on the specific
composition of the material that the glove is fabricated from. The thickness of the
glove must, depending on model and type of material, generally be more than 0.35
mm to offer sufficient protection for prolonged and frequent contact with the
substance. As an exception to this general rule it is known that multilayer laminate
gloves may offer prolonged protection at thicknesses less than 0.35 mm. Other glove
materials with a thickness of less than 0.35 mm may offer sufficient protection when
only brief contact is expected.
NOTICE: The selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration of
use in a workplace should also take into account all relevant workplace factors such
as, but not limited to: Other chemicals which may be handled, physical requirements
(cut/puncture protection, dexterity, thermal protection), potential body reactions to
glove materials, as well as the instructions/specifications provided by the glove
supplier.
Product name: VORANOL*4701 Polyol Issue Date: 07/09/2017

Other protection: Wear clean, body-covering clothing. When handling hot material,
protect skin from thermal burns. Selection of specific items will depend on the
operation.
Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when there is a potential to
exceed the exposure limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit
requirements or guidelines, wear respiratory protection when adverse effects, such as
respiratory irritation or discomfort have been experienced, or where indicated by your risk
assessment process. For most conditions, no respiratory protection should be needed;
however, if material is heated or sprayed, use an approved air-purifying respirator.
Use the following CE approved air-purifying respirator: Organic vapor cartridge with a
particulate pre-filter, type AP2.
See SECTION 7: Handling and storage and SECTION 13: Disposal considerations for measures
to prevent excessive environmental exposure during use and waste disposal.
