Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
Eyes - Flush with water for at least 15 minutes, raising and lowering eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
Skin - Thoroughly wash exposed area for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
Ingestion - If Polyvinyl Alcohol is swallowed, if conscious, give plenty of water. Immediately call a physician. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation - Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen if breathing is difficult; give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. Get medical attention.

Special Fire fighting Procedures: Firefighters should wear full protective equipment and NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus.

Steps to be taken in Case Polyvinyl Alcohol is Released or Spilled:
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be used to avoid dust dispersal. Do not let product enter drains. Small amounts of residue may be flushed to sewer with plenty of water.

Keep in a well closed container stored under cold to warm conditions, 2 to 40 C, (36 to 104F) in a ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.

Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): None needed under normal conditions of use with adequate ventilation. NIOSH approved equipment should be worn if PELs are exceeded.
Ventilation Local Exhaust: Yes
Eye Protection: Splash proof chemical safety goggles should be worn at all times.
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Lab apron, eye wash, and safety shower.
