First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

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.

Skin contact

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: Chemical burns to sensitive skin. Repeated skin exposure can lead to dermatitis.

Eye contact

Flush contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm gently running water for 30 minutes, holding eyelids open. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do, and continue to irrigate eyes until medical assistance arrives. Seek immediate medical attention.

Symptoms: Severe irritation that could lead to permanent eye damage.

Ingestion

Ingestion by a child is a severe fatality risk due to a high dose to body-weight ratio. Get IMMEDIATE medical attention for gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube. 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 vomiting occurs naturally, have patient lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Contact a POISON CENTER / doctor for immediate medical attention.

Symptoms: Severe gastrointestinal irritation leading to nausea and vomiting. Ingestion of a large volume may be fatal.

Immediate Medical Attention

Get IMMEDIATE medical attention for gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube for ingestion. Seek immediate medical attention for eye contact.

Medical Treatment

Gastric lavage with a cuffed endotracheal tube.

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use water, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, halon or others.

Unsuitable media

None known.

Specific hazards

Corrosive, oxidizing material

Firefighter Protection

Wear appropriate personal protection equipment.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

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.

Small spill

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.

Large spill

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.

Environmental

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.

Cleanup methods

Absorb spilled solution with absorbent pads or other suitable material. Neutralize the absorbed materials with soda ash, sodium bicarbonate or lime and collect in sealed containers for disposal at an approved waste disposal facility. Decontaminate the spill area with a neutralizing solution of soda ash or sodium bicarbonate.

Materials: absorbent pads, soda ash, sodium bicarbonate, lime

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Persons using this product must become familiar with the potential hazards associated with the product, and take precautions to ensure its safe use. Be prepared in advance to take the required remedial action if there is a health exposure or a spill. Have emergency equipment readily available. Keep containers closed and in a secure location when not in use. Keep out of reach of children.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. Store away from incompatible materials such as oxidizing materials, reducing materials, and strong bases. Keep storage area separate from populated work areas, and display warning signs to inform of the contents of the area. Ensure containers are correctly labeled and not damaged. Ensure caps are tightly closed to prevent venting of vapours.

Hygiene

Do not to eat, drink or smoke in the vicinity where this product is used. Avoid contact with skin or eyes. Do not rub eyes with hands that have been exposed to the solution.

Remove contaminated clothing before entering eating areas. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

None needed under normal conditions of use. Use general or local exhaust ventilation to maintain exposure below the exposure limits.

Hands

Neoprene gloves should be used for spill response. Latex gloves are sufficient for general use.

Eyes

Eye protection is required. Chemical safety goggles are recommended. Wearing contact lenses is not recommended.

Respiratory

None needed under normal conditions of use. If respiratory protection is required use a NIOSH cartridge respirator with inorganic acid vapor cartridges.

Skin/Body

Use protection suitable to the task, such as lab coat, chemical apron or coveralls. Footwear: As required by worksite rules.
