First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move victim to fresh air. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing.
For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin with running water for at least 20 minutes. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing.
Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Symptoms: If eye irritation persists
If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious) Do NOT induce vomiting. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested the substance.
Immediate Medical Attention
If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Obtain medical attention immediately if ingested.
Medical Treatment
All treatments should be based on observed signs and symptoms of distress in the patient.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
LARGE FIRES: Dry chemical, CO2, alcohol-resistant foam or water spray. SMALL FIRES: Dry chemical, CO2 or water spray.
No data available
May emit toxic vapors of carbon oxides, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides.
SMALL FIRES: Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk.
Firefighter Protection
Structural firefighters' protective clothing provides limited protection in fire situations ONLY; it is not effective in spill situations where direct contact with the substance is possible. Wear chemical protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the manufacturer. It may provide little or no thermal protection. Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
No emergency procedures are expected to be necessary if material is used under ordinary conditions as recommended.
For small spills, wear gloves and absorb spill with paper towel.
Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.
absorb spill with paper towel
Materials: paper towel

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
No special handling necessary. If cartridge is broken avoid contact with spilled reagents. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Store according to product labeling. Keep container/package tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store locked up.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable.
Wear chemical splash safety goggles.
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29 CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or symptoms are experienced.
Wear protective clothing
Follow best practice for site management and disposal of waste.
