Loosen clothing as necessary and position individual ina comfortable medical advice if discomfort or irritation not use mouth-to-mouthresuscitation. If victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with a respiratory skin contact: Wash affected area with soap and water. Rinse/flush exposed skin gently using water for15-20 minutes. Seek medical advice if discomfort or irritation eye contact: Protect unexposed eye. Rinse/flush exposed eye(s) gently using water for 15-20 contact lens(es) if able to do so during rinsing. Seek medical attention if irritation persists or swallowing: Rinse mouth thoroughly. Do not induce vomiting. Have exposed individual drink sips ofwater.

5 Call Poison Control important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:Irritation, Nausea,Headache, Shortness of breath.;Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:If seeking medical attention, provide SDS document to 5 : Firefighting measuresExtinguishing mediaSuitable extinguishing agents: If in laboratory setting, follow laboratory fire suppression procedures. Useappropriate fire suppression agents for adjacent combustible materials or sources of ignition. CO2, drychemical, dry sand, alcohol-resistant Safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: No information hazards arising from the substance or mixture:Hydrogen chloride gas, Zinc/zinc products may include carbon oxides or other decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and generating dust; finedust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dustexplosion for firefighters:Protective equipment: Use NIOSH-approved respiratory protection/breathing information (precautions): Move product containers away from fire or keep cool with waterspray as a protective measure, where spark-proof tools and explosion-proof 6 : Accidental release measuresPersonal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:Wear protective equipment.

6 Transfer to a disposal or recovery contact with skin, eyes spark-proof tools and explosion-proof respiratory protective device against theeffects of fumes/dust/aerosol. Keep unprotected persons away. Ensure adequate away fromignition sources. Protect from the spill, if possible. Contain spilled material by diking or using precautions:Prevent from reaching drains, sewer or waterway. Collect contaminated soil for characterization per Section 13 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Safety data Sheetaccording to 29 CFR1910/1200 and GHS Rev. 3 Effective date : 4 of 8 Zinc Chloride, Reagent GradeCreated by Global Safety Management, Inc. -Tel: 1-813-435-5161 - in a laboratory setting, follow Chemical Hygiene Plan into properly labeled containers forrecovery or disposal. If necessary, use trained response deposits should not be allowed toaccumulate on surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere insufficient concentration.

7 Avoid dispersal of dust in the air ( , clearing dust surfaces with compressed air).Collect solids in powder form using vacuum with (HEPA filter)Reference to other sections:SECTION 7 : Handling and storagePrecautions for safe handling:Wash hands after handling. Store protected from good hygiene procedures when handlingchemical materials. Do not eat, drink, smoke, or use personal products when handling chemical substances. Ifin a laboratory setting, follow Chemical Hygiene only in well ventilated contact with eyes,skin, and for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:Store in a cool location. Do not store in metal ventilation for containers. Avoid storage nearextreme heat, ignition sources or open flame. Store away from foodstuffs. Store away from in cool, dry conditions in well sealed containers. Keep container tightly with likehazards.

Ensure that dust-handling systems (such as exhaust ducts, dustcollectors, vessels, and processing equipment) are designed in a mannerto prevent the escape of dust into the work area ( , there is no leakagefrom the equipment).Respiratory protection:Not required under normal conditions of use. Use suitable respiratoryprotective device when high concentrations are present.

9 Use suitablerespiratory protective device when aerosol or mist is formed. For spills,respiratory protection may be of skin:The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/the substance/ the preparation being of the glovematerial on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion andthe protection: Safety glasses with side shields or hygienic measures:The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handlingchemicals. Keep away from food, beverages and feed remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Wash handsbefore breaks and at the end of work. Do not inhalegases/fumes/dust/mist/vapor/aeroso ls.
