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.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Remove contaminated clothing and dispose of safely to prevent any exposure. Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist. Burns caused by molten material require hospital treatment. Areas affected by molten material should be quickly placed under cold running water.
👁️ 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. Do not induce vomiting.
Medical Treatment
Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.
