First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
No specific intervention is indicated as the compound is not likely to be hazardous by inhalation. Consult the physician if necessary. If exposed to fumes from over heating or combustion, move to fresh air. Consult the physician if symptoms persist.
Symptoms: Polymer fume fever, a temporary flu-like condition with fever chills, nausea, shortness of breath, chest tightness, muscle or joint ache.
The compound is not likely to be hazardous by skin contact, but clean sing the skin after use is advisable. If molten polymer get son skin, cool rapidly with cold water. Do not attempt to peel polymer from skin. Obtain medical treatment for thermal burn.
Symptoms: Irritation, pain or blurred vision may result.
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. Call a physician
Symptoms: Irritation, pain or blurred vision may result.
No specific intervention is indicated as compound is not likely to be hazardous by ingestion. Obtain medical attention if necessary.
Symptoms: No toxic.
