First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

IF INHALED: remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. Medical examination necessary even merely on suspicion of intoxication.

Skin contact

After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap. In case of skin irritation, consult a physician

Eye contact

In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist

Ingestion

If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).

Immediate Medical Attention

Medical examination necessary even merely on suspicion of intoxication.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

None. The product develops itself in oxidising atmosphere and can't explode.

Firefighter Protection

Wear usual appropriate PPE

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Wear suitable protective clothing and eye/face protection. During emergency procedure, avoid direct contact.

Environmental

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhalation of dust.

Storage

Store on a dry place.

Hygiene

For general occupational hygiene, store away from food and drink.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Use adequate exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentration below the allowable exposure limit. Engineering controls (like ventilation) and safe systems of work should be used in preference to PPE to minimize the risk of exposure and keep airborne concentration below the allowable exposure limit.

Hands

Use glove while handling the product.

Eyes

Wear safety glasses with lateral protection. Eye wash equipment should be available at the workplace.

Respiratory

If exposure is likely to result in the exceedance of OEL concentrations, the following table specifies suitable respiratory protection. Breathing apparatus according to EN 149 is recommended in case of exceeding TLV.

Skin/Body

Protect skin from exposure with usual work ware.

Environmental

Avoid discharge to sewers, storm drains, surface waters and soil. Collect the quantities of products spilled on the ground.
