First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Symptoms: Difficulty in breathing. May cause central nervous system depression: Inhalation of high vapor concentrations may cause symptoms like headache, dizziness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
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.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting equipment. 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 are required. Recommended glove materials include Butyl rubber (480 minutes breakthrough, 0.5 mm thickness), Nitrile rubber (360-480 minutes breakthrough, 0.35-0.55 mm thickness), Viton (R) (480 minutes breakthrough, 0.4 mm thickness), and Neoprene (< 40 minutes breakthrough, 0.7 mm thickness). All should conform to EN 374. Specific permeation rate for Nitrile rubber is < 0.9 g/cm²/min as tested under EN374-3 Determination of Resistance to Permeation by Chemicals. Inspect gloves before use and refer to manufacturer/supplier for permeability and breakthrough time information. Ensure suitability for task considering chemical compatibility, dexterity, operational conditions, user susceptibility, and local conditions. Remove gloves carefully to avoid skin contamination.
Goggles (European standard - EN 166)
Appropriate certified respirators must be used when concentrations exceed exposure limits, ensuring correct fit, usage, and maintenance. For large scale/emergency use, a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 136 approved respirator is recommended, with an Organic gases and vapours filter Type A Brown conforming to EN14387. For small scale/laboratory use, a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149:2001 approved respirator is recommended, or a half mask (EN405/EN140) with filter (EN 141). A face piece Fit Test should be conducted when RPE is used.
Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to prevent skin exposure.
