First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Wash skin with plenty of water. Get medical advice if skin irritation persists.
Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult doctor. Consult an ophtalmologist if irritation persists.
Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Do not give an unconscious person anything to drink. If symptoms persist call a doctor.
Symptoms: Vomiting. Nausea. Diarrhoea.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water spray. Dry powder. Carbon dioxide. Use fire fighting measures suiting the environment.
Strong water jet.
Heat may build pressure, rupturing closed containers, spreading fire and increasing risk of burns and injuries.
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Firefighter Protection
Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. Self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Ventilate spillage area. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
Prevent entry to sewers and public waters. Avoid sub-soil penetration.
Take up liquid spill into absorbent material.

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Ensure good ventilation of the work station.
In case of repeated or prolonged contact wear gloves. Choosing the proper glove is a decision that depends not only on the type of material, but also on other quality features, which differ for each manufacturer. The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed. Do not use : Natural rubber, Nitrile rubber, Polyvinylchloride (PVC), Chloroprene rubber. Recommended: Chemically resistant protective gloves (Material: Butyl rubber, Permeation: 6 (> 480 minutes), Thickness: 0,5 mm, Standard: EN 374).
Chemical goggles
Not necessary with sufficient ventilation. If the occupational exposure limit is exceeded: Breathing apparatus with filter, Filter A (colour code: brown).
Wear suitable protective clothing
Avoid release to the environment.
