Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
๐ซ Inhalation Exposure
If breathing is irregular or stopped, immediately seek medical assistance and start first aid actions. Provide fresh air.
๐๏ธ Skin Contact
Wash with plenty of soap and water.
๐๏ธ Eye Contact
Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water, holding the eyelids apart. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
๐ฝ๏ธ Ingestion/Swallowing
Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
๐ญ Engineering Controls
Technical measures and the appliance of appropriate working methods take priority over the use of personal protective equipment. Safety and necessary control measures vary according to exposure conditions. Appropriate measures are: Open windows, door, to allow sufficient ventilation. If this is not possible employ a fan to increase air exchange (see attached exposure scenarios).
๐งค Hand Protection
Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Short-term contact with the skin: Disposable gloves. Long-term contact with the skin: Gloves with long cuffs. Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. Type of material: NBR: acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber, FKM: fluoro-elastomer. Material thickness: 0,40 mm. Breakthrough times of the glove material: >480 minutes (permeation: level 6).
๐๏ธ Eye Protection
Use safety goggle with side protection.
๐ฆบ Skin/Body Protection
Suitable protective clothing: Flame resistant clothing. Suitable safety shoes: Anti static safety shoes according to EN 345 S3.
