First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. Immediately administer a corticosteroid from a controlled/metered dose inhaler.
Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
Medical Treatment
Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
water spray, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides
Firefighter Protection

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Segregate from acids and acid forming substances. Storage temperature: < 40 °C. May discolour after lengthy storage.
When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift.
fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN ISO 374-1). Performance level 6, corresponding to a breakthrough time of >480 min according to EN ISO 374-1. Recommended materials: fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness, Polyethylene-Laminate (PE laminate) - ca. 0.1 mm coating thickness, butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness, polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness, nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness, chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness. Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Wear chemical resistant protective gloves.
Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Breathing protection if breathable aerosols/dust are formed. Combination filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds and solid and liquid particles (f.e. EN 14387 Type A-P2)
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of dust).
