First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Supply fresh air and to be sure call for a doctor.
Symptoms: Irritation of respiratory tract; at higher concentrations: effects on nervous system, headache, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, up to narcosis.
Immediately flush affected area with plenty of water. In case of irritation, swelling or redness, consult a doctor. Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product.
Symptoms: Skin irritations and dermatitis.
Irrigate eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 10-15 min, holding eyelids apart to ensure thorough rinsing. Call a doctor immediately.
Symptoms: Conjunctival irritation; corneal ulcerations may occur.
Wash the mouth with clean water. Call a doctor and/or carry immediately to first aid.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call a doctor immediately. Involve doctor immediately.

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Ensure good ventilation / exhaustion at the workplace. Ensure good interior ventilation, especially at floor level. (Fumes are heavier than air).
Protective gloves The following materials may provide suitable chemical protection: Butyl rubber (Recommended thickness of the material: 0.35 mm; Permeation time: > >480 min) The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed. Scelta del materiale dei guanti in considerazione dei tempi di passaggio, dei tassi di permeazione e della degradazione 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. Not suitable are gloves made of the following materials: Nitrile rubber, NBR Natural rubber, NR Neoprene gloves PVC gloves Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton)
In case of possible or foreseeable exposure to vapours or aerosol (and anyway in case of simultaneous use of respiratory protective equipment), it is preferable to wear a EN 136 certified full face mask for a better eye/face protection.
Wear a EN 136 certified full face mask equipped with a EN 14387 certified gas filter of type A (Colour code: brown) In case filter respirators are not suitable (e.g.: high concentration of particles or aerosol, oxygen concentrations below 17% volume, unknown concentrations of vapours and/or gases or concentrations above the usage limits for filter devices as specified by the manufacturer, presence of other vapours and gases in the air, etc.) use EN 14594 certified continuous flow compressed air line breathing apparatus or EN 14593-1 certified compressed air line breathing apparatus with demand valve or EN 145 certified selfcontained closed-circuit breathing apparatus or EN 137 certified self-contained open-circuit compressed air breathing apparatus.
If release of liquid chemicals is possible or foreseeable, wear a EN 14605 certified full-body protective clothing against liquid chemicals with liquid-tight (Type 3) connections, equipped with hood, protective gloves and overboots made of materials that have at least the same resistance to permeation of liquids as the suit constituent materials. Wear flameproof (according to EN ISO 11612) and electrostatic dissipative (according to EN 1149-5) protective clothing. Chemical-resistant boots (conforming EN 20345 & 13832). Footwear should be anti-static.
