First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Move victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Keep victim warm and quiet.

Symptoms: Cough.

Skin contact

In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin with running water for at least 20 minutes. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Symptoms: Redness.

Eye contact

IMMEDIATELY flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids open. Check for and remove any contact lenses.

Symptoms: Contact with material may irritate or burn eyes.

Ingestion

Do not induce vomiting with out medical advice. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If a person vomits place them in the recovery position so that vomit will not reenter the mouth and throat. Rinse mouth.

Immediate Medical Attention

If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Use first aid treatment according to the nature of the injury. For severe burns, immediate medical attention is required.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically and supportively.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Dry chemical, CO2, water spray, or alcohol-resistant foam. Consult with local fire authorities before attempting large scale fire fighting operations.

Unsuitable media

Do not use straight streams.

Specific hazards

Closed containers may explode from heat of a fire. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.

Instructions

Use water spray or fog. Dike fire-control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk.

Firefighter Protection

Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Structural fire fighters' protective clothing provides limited protection in fire situations ONLY; it may not be effective in spill situations. Wear chemical protective clothing which is specifically recommended by the manufacturer.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Isolate area until gas has dispersed. Do not clean-up or dispose except under supervision of a specialist. In case of a spill and/or a leak, always shut off any sources of ignition, ventilate the area, and exercise caution. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Warn personnel to move away. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed.

Environmental

Environmental hazard. Do not let product enter drains. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Water runoff can cause environmental damage.

Cleanup methods

Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal container. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.

Materials: inert material

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Do NOT breath gas, fumes, vapor, or spray. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not ingest. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Use explosion-proof equipment. Use only non-sparking hand tool when handling this product. Ground all equipment containing material. Take measures to prevent build up of electrostatic charge. Keep container dry. Handle and open container with care. Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. When using do not eat, drink, or smoke.

Storage

Store locked up. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flame, or any other ignition source. Keep away from incompatibles. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Avoid prolonged storage periods.

Hygiene

When using do not eat, drink, or smoke.

Fire prevention

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Use explosion-proof equipment. Use only non-sparking hand tool when handling this product. Ground all equipment containing material. Take measures to prevent build up of electrostatic charge.
