Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
Symptoms:
Hazards: When inhaled (e.g. during vomiting) risk of pulmonary oedema and/or pneumonia.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Immediately wash thoroughly with soap and water, seek medical attention.
👁️ Eye Contact
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
Ensure adequate ventilation.
🧤 Hand Protection
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN ISO 374-1): fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness, nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness. Suitable materials for short-term contact (recommended: At least protective index 2, corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN ISO 374-1): butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness, chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
👁️ Eye Protection
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
😷 Respiratory Protection
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Suitable respiratory protection for lower concentrations or short-term effect: Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A). Suitable respiratory protection for higher concentrations or long-term effect: Self-contained breathing apparatus.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of dust).
