- Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested. - Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. - Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN Treat symptomatically. Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FIRE FIGHTING ■ Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. - May be violently or explosively reactive. - Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. - Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. - Consider evacuation (or protect in place). Fight fire from a safe distance, with adequate cover. Cool fire exposed containers with water spray from a protected location. DO NOT approach containers suspected to be hot. If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD ■ Explosive. Dangerous hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Decomposes on heating and produces toxic fumes of: carbon monoxide (CO). nitrogen oxides (NOx). and. metal oxides. HAZCHEM 1YE (AE CODE) Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES MINOR SPILLS ■ Clean up all spills immediately. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear impervious gloves and safety glasses.

Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. - May be violently or explosively reactive. - Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. - Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. - Consider evacuation (or protect in place). No smoking, naked lights or ignition sources. Increase ventilation. Stop leak if safe to do so. Use dry clean up procedures and avoid generating dust. Spills of contents should be wetted. Use only spark-free shovels and explosion proof equipment. Collect recoverable product into labelled containers for recycling. Collect residues and seal in labelled drums for disposal. - After clean up operations, decontaminate and launder all protective clothing and equipment before storing and re-using.

MATERIAL DATA GUANYL NITROSAMINOGUANYLTETRAZENE: ZINC:
■ It is the goal of the ACGIH (and other Agencies) to recommend TLVs (or their equivalent) for all substances for which there
is evidence of health effects at airborne concentrations encountered in the workplace.
At this time no TLV has been established, even though this material may produce adverse health effects (as evidenced in animal
experiments or clinical experience).
NOTE: The ACGIH occupational exposure standard for Particles Not Otherwise Specified (P.N.O.S) does NOT apply.
■ Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on the eyes, nose or throat.
Historically occupational exposure standards for these irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to variousairborne concentrations.
■ Workplace exposure to nitroglycerin should be controlled to concentrations that will not cause vasodilation (as indicated by
throbbing headache and/or decrease in blood pressure). The TLV-TWA recognises the development of tolerance to the action oforganic nitrates, the fact that wide variations in individual susceptibility occur and takes into account industrial experiencewith propylene glycol dinitrate including the development of tolerance to headache resulting from repeated 8-hour exposures at0.2 ppm.
■ For dibutyl phthalate:In animal testing the reproductive system has been the prime target. Exposure at or below the TLV has not caused either

systemic effects or irritation in man.
■ for nitrogen dioxideOdour Threshold Value: 0.11-0.14 ppmNOTE: Detector tubes for nitrogen dioxide, measuring in excess of 0.5 ppm, are commercially available. The TLV-TWA is considered to be sufficiently low to reduce the potential for immediate injury or adverse physiological effects
Short exposures of workmen to nitrogen dioxide concentrations averaging 25 to 38 ppm resulted in observable physiological
response, but exposures of 3 to 5 minutes at 80 ppm produced tightness of the chest.
■ The lead concentration in air is to be maintained so that the lead concentration in workers' blood remains below 0.060
mg/100 g of whole blood. The recommended TLV-TWA has been derived following a review of reports of adverse effects onreproduction, blood-pressure and other end-points of toxicity.
■ for barium compounds:The recommended TLV-TWA is based on satisfactory results achieved while employing an internal limit for barium nitrate at a
national laboratory. It is not known what degree of added safety this limit incorporates. PERSONAL PROTECTION RESPIRATOR •Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:2001, ANSI Z88 or national equivalent) EYE ■ - Safety glasses with side shields. - Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent]. HANDS/FEET ■ - Wear physical protective gloves, eg. leather. - Wear safety footwear. ENGINEERING CONTROLS ■ Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection. The basic types of engineering controls are: Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk. Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment.
