Remove contaminated clothing and wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.
Obtain medical advice if redness, pain, or irritation continues.
Eye Contact:
Immediately rinse the eyes cautiously with clean water for at least 15 minutes.
Remove contact lenses if easy to do and obtain medical attention because the material may cause serious eye irritation.
Ingestion:
Rinse the mouth and do not induce vomiting unless instructed by medical personnel.
Contact a physician or poison center after significant accidental ingestion.

Treat symptomatically and provide supportive care.
Consider gastrointestinal irritation and possible central-nervous-system effects after substantial exposure.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
