Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. If breathing has stopped, perform artificial resuscitation. Keep person warm and at rest. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Seek medical attention immediately. Qualified medical personnel should consider administering oxygen.
Symptoms:
Irritation of mucous membrane, coughing and shortness of breath.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap and water. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention. When using high pressure equipment, injection of product under the skin can occur. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be sent immediately to a hospital. Do not wait for symptoms to develop.
Symptoms:
Injection of product under the skin can occur (when using high pressure equipment). High pressure injuries.
👁️ Eye Contact
Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Give large amounts of fresh water or milk immediately. Do not give anything by mouth if person is unconscious or otherwise unable to swallow. If vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Seek medical attention immediately.
Symptoms:
May cause burns to the mouth, throat or stomach if swallowed. After swallowing danger of stomach perforation.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
Seek medical attention immediately. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be sent immediately to a hospital; do not wait for symptoms to develop. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
Medical Treatment
Qualified medical personnel should consider administering oxygen. All treatments should be based on observed signs and symptoms of distress in the patient.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
🧤 Hand Protection
Chemical resistant, impermeable gloves. Gloves should be tested to determine suitability for prolonged contact.
👁️ Eye Protection
Wear chemical goggles; face shield (if splashing is possible).
😷 Respiratory Protection
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn. In the United States of America, if respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA Standard 63 FR 1152, January 8, 1998. Respirator type: Air-purifying respirator with an appropriate, government approved (where applicable), air-purifying filter, cartridge or canister. Contact health and safety professional or manufacturer for specific information.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Use of impervious apron or chemical suit and chemical resistant boots are recommended.
