Composition/Information on Ingredients Component CAS-No Weight % Zinc chloride >95 4. First-aid measures General Advice Eye Contact Skin Contact Inhalation Ingestion Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Immediate medical attention is required. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Immediate medical attention is required. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. Call a physician immediately. Move to fresh air. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Do not induce vomiting. Immediate medical attention is required. Drink plenty of water.

3 Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Most important symptoms and effects Notes to Physician Suitable Extinguishing Media Unsuitable Extinguishing Media Flash Point Method - Causes burns by all exposure routes. Product is a corrosive material. Use of gastric lavage or emesis is contraindicated. Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should be investigated: Ingestion causes severe swelling, severe damage to the delicate tissue and danger of perforation Treat symptomatically 5. Fire-fighting measures CO 2, dry chemical, dry sand, alcohol-resistant foam. Autoignition Temperature Explosion Limits Upper Lower Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact Sensitivity to Static Discharge Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical The product causes burns of eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses. Hazardous Combustion Products Hydrogen chloride gas zinc Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors. NFPA Health 3 Flammability 0 Instability 1 Physical hazards N/A Personal Precautions Environmental Precautions 6. Accidental release measures Use personal protective equipment. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system. Prevent product from entering drains. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. Methods for Containment and Clean Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal. Avoid dust Up formation. Handling Storage Exposure Guidelines 7. Handling and storage Use only under a chemical fume hood. Wear personal protective equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe dust. Do not ingest.
