First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove source of contamination, or move victim to fresh air. Keep affected person warm and at rest. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Administration of oxygen should be performed by qualified personnel. Get medical attention if effects persist.
Move the victim to fresh air and remove all contaminated clothing, shoes and leather goods. Gently wipe off excess chemical. Wash affected skin areas gently and thoroughly with water and non-abrasive soap. Do not rub the skin. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.
Immediately flush the eyes with clean, gently flowing lukewarm water or saline solution for 20 minutes, holding the eyelid(s) open. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically and supportively as and when required. Remove by gastric lavage and catharsis, but not if victim is unconscious. Give oxygen if respiration is depressed.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
carbon dioxide, dry powder, or alcohol-resistant foam. Water spray can be used for cooling of unaffected stock. Use spray or fog.
Avoid water coming in contact with the product. Use as little water as possible. Solid stream may cause spreading.
Fire may produce irritating or poisonous vapours (toxic fumes of carbon monoxide, phosphorous oxides and nitrogen oxides), mists or other products of combustion.
Remove spectators from surrounding area. Remove container from fire area if possible. Contain fire control agents for later disposal. Use a recommended extinguishing agent for the type of surrounding fire. Avoid inhaling hazardous vapours and fumes from burning materials. Keep upwind.
Firefighter Protection
Fire fighters and others that may be exposed should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not breathe in mist or fumes. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Remove all sources of flames and sparks. Keep spectators away.
For small liquid spills, soak up with lime, damp earth or sand, or other non-combustible absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal.
For large liquid spills, contain the liquid for later disposal.
Do not allow entering drains or watercourses. Spillage or uncontrolled discharges into water courses (or public waters) to be reported immediately to the Police and to the Department of Water/Environmental Affairs.
