First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and use the recommended protective
clothing (chemical resistant gloves, splash protection). If potential for exposure exists refer to Section
8 for specific personal protective equipment.

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration; if by mouth to mouth
use rescuer protection (pocket mask, etc). If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by
qualified personnel. Call a physician or transport to a medical facility.

Skin contact: Wash off with plenty of water. Suitable emergency safety shower facility should be
available in work area.

Eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with water; remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5
minutes, then continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention without delay,
preferably from an ophthalmologist. Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be immediately
available.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician and/or transport to emergency facility
immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

Aside from the information found under Description of first aid measures (above) and Indication of
immediate medical attention and special treatment needed (below), any additional important
symptoms and effects are described in Section 11: Toxicology Information.

Product name: DOWSIL™ 1201 RTV Prime Coat Issue Date: 07/26/2019

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Notes to physician: Maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation of the patient. If lavage is
performed, suggest endotracheal and/or esophageal control. Danger from lung aspiration must be
weighed against toxicity when considering emptying the stomach. The decision of whether to induce
vomiting or not should be made by a physician. No specific antidote. Treatment of exposure should
be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. Skin contact may
aggravate preexisting dermatitis.

5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray. Alcohol-resistant foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Dry chemical.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet. Do not use direct water stream..

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Hazardous combustion products: Carbon oxides. Chlorine compounds. Silicon oxides.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Flash back possible over considerable distance..
Exposure to combustion products may be a hazard to health.. Vapours may form explosive
mixtures with air..

Advice for firefighters

Fire Fighting Procedures: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This
must not be discharged into drains.. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water
must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.. Contain fire water run-off if
possible. Fire water run-off, if not contained, may cause environmental damage.. Use water
spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is out and danger of
reignition has passed.. Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire..
Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding
environment. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Collect contaminated fire
extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Remove undamaged
containers from fire area if it is safe to do so. Evacuate area.

Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained
breathing apparatus.. Use personal protective equipment..

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Remove all sources of
ignition. Ventilate the area. Use personal protective equipment. Follow safe handling advice and
personal protective equipment recommendations.

Environmental precautions: Do not release the product to the aquatic environment above defined
regulatory levels Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent spreading over a wide
area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers). Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water. Local
authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Page 4 of 18
Product name: DOWSIL™ 1201 RTV Prime Coat Issue Date: 07/26/2019

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Non-sparking tools should be used.
Soak up with inert absorbent material. Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water
spray jet. Clean up remaining materials from spill with suitable absorbant. Local or national
regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and items
employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which regulations are applicable. For
large spills, provide dyking or other appropriate containment to keep material from spreading. If dyked
material can be pumped, Sections 13 and 15 of this SDS provide information regarding certain local
or national requirements.
See sections: 7, 8, 11, 12 and 13.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling: Do not get on skin or clothing. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist.
Do not swallow. Do not get in eyes. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat and sources
of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Take care to prevent spills, waste
and minimize release to the environment. Non-sparking tools should be used. Handle in accordance
with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Use with local exhaust ventilation. Use only in an area equipped with explosion proof exhaust
ventilation. Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded before beginning transfer operations. This
material can accumulate static charge due to its inherent physical properties and can therefore cause
an electrical ignition source to vapors. In order to prevent a fire hazard, as bonding and grounding may
be insufficient to remove static electricity, it isnecessary to provide an inert gas purge before beginning
transfer operations. Restrict flow velocity in order to reduce the accumulation of static electricity.
Ground and bond container and receiving equipment.

Conditions for safe storage: Keep in properly labelled containers. Store locked up. Keep tightly
closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store in accordance with the particular national
regulations. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Do not store with the following product types: Strong oxidizing agents. Organic peroxides.
Flammable solids. Pyrophoric liquids. Pyrophoric solids. Self-heating substances and mixtures.
Substances and mixtures, which in contact with water, emit flammable gases . Explosives. Gases.
Unsuitable materials for containers: None known.
