First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to fresh air and keep quiet. Supply fresh air or oxygen; call for doctor. In case of unconsciousness, place patient stably in side position for transportation. In case of pulmonary irritation, administer glucocorticoid metered dose inhaler.
Symptoms: Danger of impaired breathing, danger of pulmonary oedema, danger of pneumonia.
Flush contaminated skin with soap and plenty of water. Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product. Take care of a possibility of inhalation at the same time. After prolonged contact or any signs of skin changes (redness or other signs of inflammation) seek medical attention.
Symptoms: Signs of skin changes (redness or other signs of inflammation).
Protect unharmed eye. Rinse out opened eye for several minutes under running water. Seek immediate medical advice.
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Seek immediate medical advice. A person vomiting while laying on their back should be turned onto their side.
Symptoms: Gastric or intestinal disorders. If swallowed or in case of vomiting, danger of entering the lungs.
Immediate Medical Attention
Seek immediate medical advice for eye contact or swallowing. If swallowed or in case of vomiting, danger of entering the lungs. Monitor circulation.
Medical Treatment
Symptomatic treatment. Monitor circulation.

No further data; see item 7.
Solvent resistant gloves Protective gloves The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation Material of gloves Butyl rubber, BR The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Penetration time of glove material level 6 for application > 480 min The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
Tightly sealed goggles
Not necessary if room is well-ventilated.
Protective work clothing (e. g. safety shoes EN ISO 20345, long-sleeved protective working garments).
