First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical advice/attention.
Wash with plenty of soap and water. Get medical advice/attention.
Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical advice/attention.
Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth out with water. Get medical advice/attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical advice/attention.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Alcohol resistant foam. Carbon dioxide. Dry powder. Water spray. Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.
Thermal decomposition generates: Carbon oxides. Nitrogen oxides. Risk of explosion if heated under confinement. May form flammable/explosive vapor-air mixture.
In case of fire: Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion.
Firefighter Protection
Wear gas tight chemically protective clothing in combination with self contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Ensure adequate air ventilation. Do not breathe gas, fumes, vapor or spray. Gas/vapor heavier than air. May accumulate in confined spaces, particularly at or below ground level. Consider the risk of potentially explosive atmospheres.
Take up small spills with dry chemical absorbent. Sweep or shovel spills into appropriate container for disposal.
Take up large spills with pump or vacuum and finish with dry chemical absorbent. Use explosion-proof equipment.
Avoid release to the environment.
Take up large spills with pump or vacuum and finish with dry chemical absorbent. Use explosion-proof equipment. Take up small spills with dry chemical absorbent. Sweep or shovel spills into appropriate container for disposal. Ventilate area.
Materials: dry chemical absorbent
