First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Call a physician immediately. If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If the victim is unconscious: Lay in a stable manner on victim's side. Induce artificial respiration with mask fitted with one-way valve or other suitable device; not mouth-to-mouth.
Symptoms: Aspiration of the product into the lungs may cause very serious pneumonia. Depression of the central nervous system, headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, loss of coordination.
Remove affected clothing and wash all exposed skin areas with mild soap and water, followed by warm water rinse. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Symptoms: Irritation (itching, redness, blistering).
IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Symptoms: Mild eye irritation. Redness, itching, tears.
Call a physician immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs.
Symptoms: May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Risk of lung edema.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call a physician immediately. IF exposed: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Dry chemical, CO2, or water spray or regular foam.
Do not use a heavy water stream.
Combustible liquid.
In case of fire: Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion. Large fires: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting devices or discoloration from tank. Cool affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Prevent firefighting water from entering environment.
Firefighter Protection
Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. Self-contained breathing apparatus. Complete protective clothing.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Evacuate the danger area. If outdoors, move to an area upwind of the danger area. Prevent other non-emergency personnel from entering the danger area. If possible without taking personal risks, remove ignition sources, ventilate area. No open flames, no sparks, and no smoking. Only qualified personnel equipped with suitable protective equipment may intervene. Do not breathe mist, spray, vapors.
Do not let the product reach soil, drains, sewers, or surface and ground water.
Take up in non-combustible inert absorbent and place into container for disposal. Decontaminate surfaces and equipment with water and detergent.
Materials: non-combustible inert absorbent
