AFTER THE LIQUID HAS BEEN SWALLOWED, TRY TO INDUCE VOMITING BY HAVING AFFECTED PERSON TOUCH BACK OF HIS THROAT WITH HIS FINGER. GET IMMED. MED. ATTN

SECTION VII - Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
Steps if Material Released/Spilled       VENTILATE, STOP FLOW OF GAS OR LIQUID IF POSSIBLE. DO NOT ALLOW CHEMICAL TO ENTER CONFINED SPACE. STOP LEAK IF POSSIBLE WITHOUT RISK. DO NOT TOUCH SPILLED MATERIAL! ABSORB SMALL QUANTITIES W/ PAPER TOWELS & EVAPORATE IN SAFE PLACE   ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME FOR VAPORS TO COMPLETELY CLEAR THE HOOD DUCTS, THEN BURN THE PAPER IN A LOCATION AWAY FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. LET EVAPORATE 
Waste Disposal Method                    INCINERATE IN SUITABLE COMBUSTIBLE CHAMBER. ABSORB IN VERMICULITE OR DRY SAND, DISPOSE IN LICENSED SPECIAL WASTE. COLLECT ON ABSROBENT MATERIAL, PLACE IN CARDBOARD KEGS & INCINERATE. CONFIRM DISPOSAL PROCEDURES W/ ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER & LOCAL REGS 
Handling and Storage Precautions         KEEP AWAY FROM OXIDIZERS, HEAT & FLAMES. MAY ATTACK SOME PLASTICS, RUBBER & COATINGS. KEEP IN COOL, DRY, VENTILATED STORAGE & CLOSED CONTAINERS. GROUND CONTAINER & TRANSFER EQUIPMENT TO ELIMINATE STATIC ELECTRIC SPARKS. FLAMMABLE LIQUID STORAGE 
Other Precautions                        KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS OR OPEN FLAMES. AVOID SPILLING, SKIN & EYE CONTACT. WEAR FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR FOR PROLONGED EXPOSURE &/OR HIGH CONCENTRATIONS. DO NOT USE CONTACT LENSES
