 eyelids. A victim may need assistance in keeping their eyelids open. Get immediate competent medical attention.
 SKIN EXPOSURE: Wash affected area with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Seek medical assistance if
 irritation persists.
 INHALATION: Remove to fresh air and keep at rest.  If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.  If not breathing, give artificial
 respiration. Get medical attention.
 INGESTION: Seek medical assistance immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give the victim water (only if conscious). Induce
 vomiting only if directed by medical personnel.

SECTION 5   FIREFIGHTING MEASURES

 FLASH POINT: Product is an oxidizer – Contact with combustible may cause fire.
 AUTO IGNITION TEMPERATURE: Not available
 EXPLOSION LIMITS: Not available
 EXTINGUISHING MEDIUM: Use carbon dioxide, extinguishing powder or foam. Water may be ineffective but may be used for cooling
 exposed containers. Do NOT use halocarbon extinguisher
 SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear self-contained, approved breathing apparatus and full protective clothing,
 including eye protection and boots.
 HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION AND DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Nitrogen oxides and yttrium oxide.

SECTION 6   ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

 PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS: Wear all appropriate equipment when using this material. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid the
 formation of dust. Avoid breathing vapors, mist, gas, or dust.
 ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Prevent spillage from entering drains or allowing to be released into the environment.
