First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Keep patient warm and at rest. Consult a physician. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.
Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. Use a mild soap if available. Consult a physician. If skin irritation occurs, seek medical advice/attention.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids. Take victim immediately to hospital. Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital.
Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Rinse mouth with water. Do not give anything to drink. Keep at rest. Consult a physician if necessary. If a large amount is swallowed, get medical attention.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Multi-purpose powders, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) for small fires. Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) for large fires.
Water may be ineffective. Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
Flammable liquid and vapour. The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of heat. In case of heating, highly flammable gas is released, which increases fire/explosion hazards. Flash back possible over considerable distance. In case of heating, harmful or toxic vapours are released. Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. High concentrations of toxic or harmful products may remain in the residual liquid once the fire has been extinguished.
Stay upwind. Pay attention to flashback. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion. Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet. Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire. Cool down the containers/equipment exposed to heat with a water spray. Ensure that there is NO direct contact between the water and the product. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Firefighter Protection
Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Personal protective equipment comprising: suitable protective gloves, safety goggles and protective clothing.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Immediately evacuate personnel to safe areas. Stay upwind. Only qualified personnel equipped with suitable protective equipment may intervene. Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. Ventilate the area. Stop leak if safe to do so. If spillage occurs on the public highway, indicate the danger and notify the authorities (police, fire brigade).
Take all necessary measures to avoid accidental discharge of products into drains and waterways due to the rupture of containers or transfer systems. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Contain the spilled material by bunding. The product should not be allowed to enter drains, water courses or the soil. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities. If the spill area is porous, the contaminated material must be collected for subsequent treatment or disposal.
No sparking tools should be used. Stop leak if safe to do so. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder). Shovel or sweep up. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Never return spills in original containers for re-use. Wash with plenty of water and detergent. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Recover the cleaning water for subsequent disposal.
Materials: Inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder), water and detergent.

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Effective exhaust ventilation system. Ensure adequate ventilation. Extract at emission point. Ensure that extracted air cannot be returned to the workplace through the ventilation system. Avoid splashes. Avoid formation of aerosol.
Where there is a risk of contact with hands, use appropriate gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time. Gloves should be discarded and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it. Suitable material: Nitrile rubber
Tightly fitting safety goggles. Face-shield
Recommended Filter type: Combined particulates and organic vapour type. This should be achieved by a good general extraction and -if practically feasible- by the use of a local exhaust ventilation. Use a respirator with an approved filter if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.
Wear fire resistant and antistatic coveralls. Workers should wear antistatic footwear. Full protective suit. Footwear protecting against chemicals. Choose body protection according to the amount and concentration of the dangerous substance at the work place.
