Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
fresh air.
Symptoms:
pneumonia, in some cases also pulmonary oedema, upon direct inhalation, i.e. in conditions that can occur only in very special circumstances (nebulizations, spraying, inhalation of aerosols and similar). After absorption of very large quantities: narcosis.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/ shower.
👁️ Eye Contact
rinse out with plenty of water.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Keep airways free.
Symptoms:
caution if victim vomits. Risk of aspiration! Pulmonary failure possible after aspiration of vomit.

🏭 Engineering Controls
Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment. See section 7.1.
🧤 Hand Protection
full contact: Glove material: Nitrile rubber Glove thickness: 0,40 mm Break through time: - 480 min splash contact: Glove material: polychloroprene Glove thickness: 0,65 mm Break through time: - 120 min The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 730 Camatril -Velours (full contact), KCL 720 Camapren (splash contact). The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types. This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet, supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN374 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves (e.g. KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Internet: www.kcl.de).
👁️ Eye Protection
Safety glasses
😷 Respiratory Protection
required when vapours/aerosols are generated. Recommended Filter type: Filter A (acc. to DIN 3181) for vapours of organic compounds The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing
🌍 Environmental Exposure Controls
Do not empty into drains. Risk of explosion.
