Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Move to fresh air, consult doctor if complaint persists.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Do not pull bonded skin apart. It may be gently peeled apart using a blunt object such as a spoon, preferably after soaking in warm soapy water. Burns should be treated normally after the adhesive has been removed from the skin. If lips are accidentally stuck together apply warm water to the lips and encourage maximum wetting and pressure from saliva inside the mouth. Peel or roll lips apart. Do not try to pull the lips apart with direct opposing action.
Symptoms:
Cyanoacrylates give off heat on solidification. In rare cases a large drop will generate enough heat to cause a burn.
👁️ Eye Contact
If the eye is bonded closed, release eyelashes with warm water by covering with wet pad. Keep eye covered until debonding is complete, usually within 1-3 days. Do not force eye open. Medical advice should be sought in case solid particles of cyanoacrylate trapped behind the eyelid cause any abrasive damage.
Symptoms:
Cyanoacrylate will bond to eye protein and will cause periods of weeping which will help to debond the adhesive.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Ensure that breathing passages are not obstructed. Saliva will slowly separate the solidified product from the mouth (several hours).
Symptoms:
The product will polymerise immediately in the mouth making it almost impossible to swallow.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
Medical advice should be sought in case solid particles of cyanoacrylate trapped behind the eyelid cause any abrasive damage.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically. Surgery is not necessary to separate accidentally bonded tissues. Experience has shown that bonded tissues are best treated by passive, non-surgical first aid. If rapid curing has caused thermal burns they should be treated symptomatically after adhesive is removed.

🏭 Engineering Controls
Ensure good ventilation/extraction.
🧤 Hand Protection
The use of chemical resistant gloves such as Nitrile is recommended. Polyethylene or polypropylene gloves are recommended when using large volumes. Do not use PVC, rubber or nylon gloves. Please note that in practice the working life of chemical resistant gloves may be considerably reduced as a result of many influencing factors (e.g. temperature). Suitable risk assessment should be carried out by the end user. If signs of wear and tear are noticed then the gloves should be replaced.
👁️ Eye Protection
Wear protective glasses.
😷 Respiratory Protection
If inhalation risk exists, wear a respirator or air supplied mask complying with the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Protective clothing that covers arms and legs.
