Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
Inhalation Exposure
remove patient from exposure and give fresh air and rest. Obtain prompt medical attention.
Symptoms:
irritation of the airways, drowsiness, or dizziness
Skin Contact
remove contaminated clothing and wash affected area with soap and water. If irritation occurs, seek medical attention. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.
Symptoms:
Irritation
Eye Contact
In case of contact with eyes irrigate with water, occasionally lifting eyelids. Seek prompt medical attention for signs of irritation.
Symptoms:
Irritation
Ingestion/Swallowing
For industrial use of the liquid, if swallowed, wash out mouth thoroughly and give water to drink. Seek medical attention if significant amounts (e.g. more than a teaspoonful) are ingested, or for any symptoms occurring after ingestion. Do not induce vomiting, unless instructed by medical personnel.
Immediate Medical Attention Required
Prompt medical attention is required for adverse inhalation effects (e.g., irritation of airways, drowsiness, dizziness), signs of eye irritation, or if significant amounts are ingested. Seek medical attention for any symptoms occurring after ingestion or if skin irritation occurs.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptoms as they occur.
Fire Fighting Measures & Emergency Response
Fire suppression methods, extinguishing media, and firefighting safety procedures
Suitable Extinguishing Media
Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical and foam are compatible with the product.
Specific Fire Hazards
The liquid is expected to be flammable. Vapour may produce explosive mixture in air in confined space.
Fire Fighting Instructions
Remove containers from fire or cool them with water.
Firefighter Protection Equipment
Fire fighters should wear an approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
Accidental Release Measures & Spill Response
Emergency spill cleanup procedures, containment methods, and environmental protection
Emergency Procedures
For industrial spills of the liquid, ensure full personal protection is worn (see Section 8). Ensure all sources of ignition are extinguished. Keep unauthorised personnel from the spillage area.
Small Spill Procedures
Small spills can be mopped up with dry cloth.
Large Spill Procedures
Collect larger spill using techniques such as sorbent materials or pumping. Follow prescribed procedures for responding to large spills and reporting to appropriate authorities.
Environmental Precautions
Prevent leakage of product into water-courses or drainage system by diking with sand or other absorbent material. Contact authorities, water company, and waste-water treatment plant as appropriate if significant contamination occurs.
Cleanup Methods
Clean up spill as soon as possible using non-sparking equipment and machinery. Small spills can be mopped up with dry cloth. Collect larger spill using techniques such as sorbent materials or pumping. Wash contaminated surfaces with water and collect washings for safe disposal.
Cleanup Materials:
dry cloth; sorbent materials
