First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

If uncomfortable during dust-raising work: Move into fresh air and keep at rest.

Skin contact

Wash skin with soap and water.

Eye contact

If irritation occurs during dust-raising work, flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.

Ingestion

Immediately rinse mouth and drink plenty of water. Keep person under observation.

Immediate Medical Attention

If person becomes uncomfortable seek hospital and bring these instructions.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.
