First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation. Supply fresh air. If required, provide artificial respiration. Keep patient warm.

Skin contact

Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. Seek immediate medical advice.

Eye contact

Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult a doctor.

Ingestion

Drink lots of water or milk. Induce vomiting if patient is conscious. Administer a solution of sodium carbonate.

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Properly operating chemical fume hood designed for hazardous chemicals and having an average face velocity of at least 100 feet per minute.

Hands

Impervious gloves. Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition. The selection of suitable gloves not only depends on the material, but also on quality. Quality will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Material of gloves Nitrile rubber, NBR. Penetration time of glove material (in minutes) 480. Glove thickness: 0.11 mm.

Eyes

Safety glasses with side shields / NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Respiratory

Use suitable respirator when high concentrations are present. Recommended filter device for short term use: Use a respirator with type P100 (USA) or P3 (EN 143) cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. Risk assessment should be performed to determine if air-purifying respirators are appropriate. 'Only use equipment tested and approved under appropriate government standards.

Skin/Body

Protective work clothing.
