First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Symptoms: Irritation to the nose, throat, and upper respiratory tract. May cause drowsiness or dizziness.

Skin contact

Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. Use Collodion Remover or acetone to remove Collodion residue. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

Symptoms: Direct contact with skin can cause irritation or redness.

Eye contact

Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.

Ingestion

If conscious give 2 glasses of water to dilute. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention. Rinse mouth.

Symptoms: Harmful if swallowed. May cause nausea, vomiting, stomach ache, and diarrhea.

Immediate Medical Attention

Seek medical attention (Ingestion), call a physician (Inhalation/Skin/Eye if persistent).

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical. Alcohol resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers.

Unsuitable media

Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Specific hazards

Highly flammable liquid and vapor. Closed containers may explode due to buildup of pressure when exposed to extreme heat. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Vapors may cause flash fire.

Firefighter Protection

As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment as required. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ventilate affected area.

Environmental

Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater.

Cleanup methods

Absorb spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material. Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.

Materials: non-combustible, absorbent material

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wash face, hands, and any exposed skin thoroughly after handling. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. — No smoking. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment. Use non-sparking hand tools and explosion-proof electrical equipment. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Containers, even those that have been emptied, can contain explosive vapors. Do not cut, drill, grind, weld or perform similar operations on or near containers. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.

Storage

Keep container tightly closed and store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Protect container from physical damage.

Hygiene

Wash face, hands, and any exposed skin thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.

Fire prevention

Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. — No smoking. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment. Use non-sparking hand tools and explosion-proof electrical equipment. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Apply technical measures to comply with the occupational exposure limits. Eyewash stations. Showers.

Hands

Neoprene or rubber gloves with cuffs.

Eyes

Chemical anti-splash safety goggles. Eye protection must be provided in accordance with OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.133), ANSI Z87.1, or European Standard EN 166, as applicable.

Respiratory

None required; however, if misting occurs, NIOSH approved respirator capable of removing particulate from air must be worn. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) or European Standard EN 149, as applicable. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.

Skin/Body

Suitable protective clothing.
