First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Skin contact

Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 - 20 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. Immediate medical attention required.

Symptoms: skin corrosion, severe pain

Eye contact

Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing. Seek medical attention.

Symptoms: irritates the eyes, blindness, corneal injury, severe pain

Ingestion

Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200 - 300 ml water, do not induce vomiting, seek medical attention. Administer 50 ml of pure ethanol in a drinkable concentration. Seek medical attention.

Symptoms: nausea, acidosis, coma, blindness, headache, dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, circulatory collapse, death, stenosis, salivation, severe pain

Immediate Medical Attention

Immediate medical attention required for skin contact. Seek medical attention for eye contact and ingestion. Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions) is recommended.

Medical Treatment

Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions). Administer 50 ml of pure ethanol in a drinkable concentration.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Protect against moisture. Protect against heat. Solidified/precipitated product can be redissolved with a non-igniting heat source provided that the formation of an atmosphere capable to explode is suppressed by inertization or sources of ignition are absent. A possible rise in pressure caused by evaporating solvent has to be taken into account.

Storage

Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep under dry nitrogen. Protect against moisture. Protect against heat. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. The product crystallizes below the limit temperature.

Hygiene

When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. Change clothes immediately after contamination.

Fire prevention

Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Fire extinguishers should be kept handy. Sources of ignition should be kept well clear.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Hands

Chemical resistant protective gloves should be worn to prevent all skin contact., Suitable materials may include, butyl rubber, fluoroelastomer (Viton), Consult with glove manufacturer for testing data., Protective glove selection must be based on the user's assessment of the workplace hazards.

Eyes

Tightly fitting safety goggles (chemical goggles). Wear face shield if splashing hazard exists.

Respiratory

Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) organic vapour/particulate respirator. Do not exceed the maximum use concentration for the respirator facepiece/cartridge combination. For emergency or non-routine, high exposure situations, use a NIOSH-certified full facepiece pressure demand self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or a full facepiece pressure demand supplied-air respirator (SAR) with escape provisions. Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134).

Skin/Body

Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. head protection, apron, protective boots, chemical-protection suit.
