First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove casualty from exposure ensuring one's own safety whilst doing so. Consult a doctor.
Symptoms: There may be a feeling of tightness in the chest with shortness of breath.
Remove all contaminated clothes and footwear immediately unless stuck to skin. Drench the affected skin with running water for 10 minutes or longer if substance is still on skin.
Symptoms: There may be mild irritation at the site of contact.
Bathe the eye with running water for 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Symptoms: There may be irritation and redness.
Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, give half a litre of water to drink immediately. Consult a doctor.
Symptoms: There may be irritation of the throat.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, foam. Suitable extinguishing media for the surrounding fire should be used.
Highly flammable. Forms explosive air-vapour mixture. Vapour may travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back. In combustion emits toxic fumes. Hydrogen fluoride (HF).
Firefighter Protection
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Notify the police and fire brigade immediately. Turn leaking containers leak-side up to prevent the escape of liquid.
Do not discharge into drains or rivers. Contain the spillage using bunding.
Absorb into dry earth or sand.
Materials: dry earth or sand
