First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

DO NOT DELAY. Remove to fresh air. If rapid recovery does not occur, transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment.

Skin contact

Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately flush skin with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, and follow by washing with soap and water if available.

Symptoms: Redness, swelling, pain and/or blisters.

Eye contact

Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Transport to the nearest medical facility for additional treatment.

Ingestion

If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration. Give nothing by mouth.

Symptoms: Fever greater than 101 F (38.3 C), shortness of breath, chest congestion or continued coughing or wheezing.

Immediate Medical Attention

Obtain medical treatment immediately. Transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment if rapid recovery does not occur (inhalation), if redness, swelling, pain and/or blisters occur (skin), after flushing eyes, or if swallowed. For ingestion, transport to nearest medical facility if delayed signs and symptoms (fever greater than 101 F (38.3 C), shortness of breath, chest congestion or continued coughing or wheezing) appear within 6 hours.

Medical Treatment

Consider: oxygen therapy.

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Use sealed systems as far as possible. Adequate ventilation to control airborne concentrations below the exposure guidelines/limits. Adequate explosion-proof ventilation to control airborne concentrations. Firewater monitors and deluge systems are recommended. Eye washes and showers for emergency use.

Hands

Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374, US: F739, AS/NZS:2161) made from the following materials may provide suitable chemical protection: Longer term protection: Viton. Incidental contact/Splash protection: Nitrile rubber. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical resistance of glove material, dexterity. Always seek advice from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.

Eyes

Chemical splash goggles (chemical monogoggles). Approved to EU Standard EN166, AS/NZS:1337.

Respiratory

If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the specific conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation. Check with respiratory protective equipment suppliers. Where air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate combination of mask and filter. Select a filter suitable for combined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point <65 C (149 F)] meeting EN14387. Where respiratory protective equipment is required, use a full-face mask. Where air-filtering respirators are unsuitable (e.g., airborne concentrations are high, risk of oxygen deficiency, confined space) use appropriate positive pressure breathing apparatus.

Skin/Body

Chemical resistant gloves/gauntlets, boots, and apron. Where risk of splashing or in spillage clean up, use chemical resistant one-piece overall with integral hood. Wear antistatic and flame retardant clothing.

Environmental

Local guidelines on emission limits for volatile substances must be observed for the discharge of exhaust air containing vapour. Information on accidental release measures are to be found in section 6.
