First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If inhaled, move person to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered. Get medical advice immediately (show the SDS or the label were possible).
Symptoms: May cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled.
Remove contaminated clothes and shoes. Wash immediately affected area with soap or mild detergent and plenty of water until the removal of the mixture (15-20 minutes). Get medical advice if adverse symptoms appear.
Symptoms: May be irritant for skin.
Wash immediately with plenty of water or normal saline for at least 15 minutes. Keep eyelid open with the finger. Get medical advice if adverse symptoms appear.
Symptoms: May cause irritation.
If swallowed rinse mouth with plenty of water provided person is conscious. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical advice if adverse symptoms appear.
Symptoms: may cause irritation to the gastrointestinal mucous membranes.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical advice immediately (for inhalation).
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water spray or regular foam, CO₂, dry powder.
Not known.

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Appropriate risk management measures, that must be adopted at the workplace, have to be selected and applied, following the risks assessment carried out by the employer, in connection with his working activity. If the results of this evaluation show that the general and collective prevention measures are not sufficient to reduce the risk, and if you cannot prevent exposure to the mixture by other means, adequate personal protective equipment must be adopted, complying with the relevant technical national/international standards.
Protective gloves.
Safety glasses.
Respiratory protection is not required. Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate, use masks with approved filter. Use only devices approved by the Competent Authorities such as NIOSH (USA) and CEN (EU).
Protective clothing, rubber gloves.
Avoid any release into the environment.
