First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If victim has been exposed to vapour, remove to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, a trained person should perform artificial respiration. Get medical attention if you feel unwell.
Wash affected area immediately with mild soap and water and continue for 15 minutes. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Remove any contaminated clothing and launder before re-use.
Symptoms: Overexposure can result in chemical burns to sensitive skin. Repeated skin exposure can lead to dermatitis.
Flush contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm gently running water for 30 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek immediate medical attention.
Symptoms: Exposure to eyes is likely to result in severe irritation that could lead to permanent eye damage if not treated immediately.
If a small amount has been ingested, DO NOT induce vomiting. Dilute contents of stomach with 1-2 glasses of water and seek medical attention / advice. If a large amount has been ingested, get IMMEDIATE medical attention for gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube. If vomiting occurs naturally, have patient lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Contact a POISON CENTER / doctor for immediate medical attention.
Symptoms: Ingestion by a child is a severe fatality risk due to a high dose to body-weight ratio.
Immediate Medical Attention
Seek immediate medical attention (Eye). Get medical attention if you feel unwell (Inhalation). Get IMMEDIATE medical attention for gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube (Ingestion).
Medical Treatment
Gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
No specific media is recommended. Use water, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, halon or others.
None known.
Corrosive, oxidizing material
Firefighter Protection
Wear appropriate personal protection equipment.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
For small spills under 1 gallon, wear appropriate personal protective equipment, rubber gloves and safety glasses. Ventilate area. Do not touch spilled product without proper personal protection. Neutralize with soda ash, sodium bicarbonate or lime, but be aware this will cause an exothermic reaction. Absorb spilled solution with non-combustible absorbent pad or other suitable absorbent material.
For small spills under 1 gallon, wear appropriate personal protective equipment, rubber gloves and safety glasses. Ventilate area. Do not touch spilled product without proper personal protection. Neutralize with soda ash, sodium bicarbonate or lime, but be aware this will cause an exothermic reaction. Absorb spilled solution with non-combustible absorbent pad or other suitable absorbent material.
For spills over 1 gallon, wear rubber gloves, safety glasses or goggles, chemical resistant coveralls or apron, rubber boots and a respirator with an organic acid vapour cartridge. Absorb spilled solution with non-combustible absorbent pad or other suitable absorbent material.
Implement spill control plan. Stop or reduce leak if safe to do so. Prevent from entering sanitary or storm sewers, waterways, or confined spaces. Use inert materials such as earth or sand to form dike. Keep from contacting aquatic life.
Absorb spilled solution with non-combustible absorbent pad or other suitable absorbent material.
Materials: non-combustible absorbent pad or other suitable absorbent material
