First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON CENTER or doctor if you feel unwell.
Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 (30 or 60) minutes. Immediate medical attention is required. Call a physician immediately. Removal of solidified molten material from skin requires medical assistance. In case of contact with Hydrogen fluoride, anhydrous (UN1052), flush skin and eyes with water for 5 minutes; then, for skin exposures rub on a calcium/jelly combination; for eyes flush with a water/calcium solution for 15 minutes. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Flush eyes for at least 15 minutes. Immediate medical attention is required.
