If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.

Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops.

Symptoms: irritation

In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately.

DO NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. If affected person is fully conscious, give one glass of water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get immediate medical attention.

Symptoms: diarrhea, abdominal cramps and pain

Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value.

Hand Protection: Wear chemical resistant gloves. Nitrile gloves of minimum thickness 0.4 mm have an expected breakthrough time of 480 minutes or less when in frequent contact with the product. Due to variable exposure conditions the user must consider that the practical use of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time above. Manufacturer's directions for use, especially about the minimum thickness and the minimum breakthrough time, must be observed. This information does not replace suitability tests by the end user since glove protection varies depending on the conditions under which the product is used.

Safety goggles are considered minimum protection. Goggles with a face shield may be necessary depending on quantity of material and conditions of use.

Use appropriate respiratory protection if there is the potential to exceed the exposure limit(s).

Disposable outer garments when there is a risk of contact with the material.

Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
