Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of vapours or decomposition products. Call a physician immediately. If patient is not breathing, apply artificial respiration.
🖐️ Skin Contact
In case of contact with skin wash off with soap and water. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists.
Symptoms:
Contact with eyes, skin or oral tissues may cause irritation.
👁️ Eye Contact
Remove contact lens. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical treatment by eye specialist.
Symptoms:
Contact with eyes, skin or oral tissues may cause irritation.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Rinse out mouth and give plenty of water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Induce vomiting only upon the advice of a physician.
Symptoms:
Contact with eyes, skin or oral tissues may cause irritation. Ingestion causes irritation of upper respiratory system and gastrointestinal disturbance.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🧤 Hand Protection
Short time contact: Solvent-resistant gloves (nitrile rubber). (EN 374) Glove material must be impermeable and resistant against product / substance / preparation. Gloves material should comply with breakthrough times, permeation rates, and degradation. Requirements can vary as a function of the use. Therefore it is necessary to adhere additionally to the recommendations given by the manufacturer of protective gloves.
👁️ Eye Protection
Safety goggles (EN 166).
😷 Respiratory Protection
No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. In case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment (gas filter type A) (EN 14387).
