In case of first degree burns (painful redness), and second degree burns (painful blisters), cool the affected area with cold running water for a long time. In case of third degree burns (redness, cracking pale skin, usually without pain), do not cool affected skin, dress the area with sterile dry gauze only.

Symptoms: First degree burns (painful redness), second degree burns (painful blisters), third degree burns (redness, cracking pale skin, usually without pain).

Immediately flush eyes with clean lukewarm water and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes – keep the eyelids widely apart and flush thoroughly with mild water stream from the inner to the outer. Seek medical advice.

Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, convulsions, irregular heartbeat.

Foam, powder, CO2.

Water.

Danger of violent reaction or explosion. Vapours may travel considerable far distances and cause subsequent ignition. Vapours are heavier than air, may cumulate along the ground and in enclosed spaces – danger of explosion. Containers with the substance exposed to excessive heat may explode.

Cool containers with water spray.

Isolate hazard area. Evacuate all unauthorized personnel not participating in rescue operations from the area. Avoid entry into danger area. Stop traffic and switch off the motors of the engines. Do not smoke and do not handle with naked flame. Use explosion-proof lamps and non-sparking tools. Avoid contact with the substance.

Prevent from further leaks of substance.

Pump off substance safely, soak up residues with compatible porous material

Materials: compatible porous material

Observe all fire-fighting measures (no smoking, do not handle with naked flame and remove all possible sources of ignition). Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Wear recommended personal protective equipment and observe instructions to prevent possible contact of substance with skin and eyes and inhalation.

Store in cool, well-ventilated place.

no smoking, do not handle with naked flame and remove all possible sources of ignition

General and local ventilation, effective exhaust.

Wear gloves of impervious material.

Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, wear a supplied air, full-face piece respirator, airline hood, or full face piece self-contained breathing apparatus. Protective mask with canister A (brown coloured, protecting against organic vapours), self-contained breathing apparatus.

Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact. Protective coverall antistatic design recommended, impervious when handling big amounts (nitrile rubber), sealed leather footwear (free from synthetic adhesives)
