Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Remove to fresh air. If rapid recovery does not occur, transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment.
Symptoms:
Coughing, choking, wheezing, difficulty in breathing, chest congestion, shortness of breath, and/or fever. The onset of respiratory symptoms may be delayed for several hours after exposure. Breathing of high vapour concentrations may cause central nervous system (CNS) depression resulting in dizziness, light-headedness, headache, nausea and loss of coordination. Continued inhalation may result in unconsciousness and death.
🖐️ 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. If redness, swelling, pain and/or blisters occur, transport to the nearest medical facility for additional treatment.
Symptoms:
Burning sensation, redness, swelling, pain, and/or blisters.
👁️ Eye Contact
Flush eyes with water while holding eyelids open. Rest eyes for 30 minutes. If redness, burning, blurred vision, or swelling persist, transport to the nearest medical facility for additional treatment.
Symptoms:
Burning sensation, temporary redness of the eye, blurred vision, swelling.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration. If any of the following delayed signs and symptoms appear within the next 6 hours, transport to the nearest medical facility: fever greater than 101 F (38.3C), shortness of breath, chest congestion or continued coughing or wheezing.
Symptoms:
If vomiting occurs spontaneously, aspiration is a risk. Delayed signs and symptoms (within 6 hours) may include fever greater than 101 F (38.3C), shortness of breath, chest congestion or continued coughing or wheezing.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
If rapid recovery does not occur after inhalation, transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment. If redness, swelling, pain and/or blisters occur after skin contact, transport to the nearest medical facility for additional treatment. If redness, burning, blurred vision, or swelling persist after eye contact, transport to the nearest medical facility for additional treatment. If swallowed, transport to nearest medical facility for additional treatment. If any of the following delayed signs and symptoms appear within the next 6 hours after ingestion, transport to the nearest medical facility. Treat symptomatically.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
Use sealed systems as far as possible. Adequate explosion-proof ventilation to control airborne concentrations below the exposure guidelines/limits. Local exhaust ventilation is recommended.
🧤 Hand Protection
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care. Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical resistance of glove material, glove thickness, dexterity. Always seek advice from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced. Select gloves tested to a relevant standard (e.g. Europe EN374, US F739). When prolonged or frequent repeated contact occurs, Nitrile gloves may be suitable. (Breakthrough time of > 240 minutes.) For incidental contact/splash protection Neoprene, PVC gloves may be suitable.
👁️ Eye Protection
Chemical splash goggles (chemical monogoggles). Approved to EU Standard EN166.
😷 Respiratory Protection
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. Where air-filtering respirators are unsuitable (e.g. airborne concentrations are high, risk of oxygen deficiency, confined space) use appropriate positive pressure breathing apparatus. All respiratory protection equipment and use must be in accordance with local regulations. Select a filter suitable for combined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point >65 C (149 F)] meeting EN14387.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Chemical resistant gloves/gauntlets, boots, and apron (where risk of splashing).
🌍 Environmental Exposure Controls
Local guidelines on emission limits for volatile substances must be observed for the discharge of exhaust air containing vapour.
