First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove from exposure, lie down. Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention.
Symptoms: Difficulty in breathing.
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Do NOT induce vomiting. Get medical attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention.
Medical Treatment

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Wear personal protective equipment/face protection. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe mist/vapors/spray. Do not ingest. If swallowed then seek immediate medical assistance. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Use only non-sparking tools. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Remove and wash contaminated clothing and gloves, including the inside, before re-use. Wash hands before breaks and after work.
Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting equipment. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Wherever possible, engineering control measures such as the isolation or enclosure of the process, the introduction of process or equipment changes to minimise release or contact, and the use of properly designed ventilation systems, should be adopted to control hazardous materials at source
Protective gloves. Glove materials include Natural rubber, Butyl rubber, Nitrile rubber, Neoprene, PVC. Breakthrough time and glove thickness should follow manufacturers' recommendations. EU standard EN 374 (minimum requirement). Inspect gloves before use. Observe instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time from the supplier. Ensure gloves are suitable for the task considering chemical compatibility, dexterity, operational conditions, user susceptibility, and local conditions (e.g., cuts, abrasion). Remove gloves with care avoiding skin contamination.
Goggles (European standard - EN 166)
No protective equipment is needed under normal use conditions. For large scale/emergency use, use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 136 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. For small scale/Laboratory use, maintain adequate ventilation.
Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to prevent skin exposure.
