First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Skin contact

Remove contaminated, saturated clothing immediately. After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap. In case of skin reactions, consult a physician.

Symptoms: Contact with skin can cause burns

Eye contact

After contact with the eyes, rinse with water with the eyelids open for a sufficient length of time, then consult an ophthalmologist immediately.

Symptoms: Contact with eyes can cause burns

Ingestion

If accidentally ingested, seek immediate medical attention, NEVER induce vomiting.

Symptoms: ingestion can cause internal damage

Immediate Medical Attention

If accidentally ingested, seek immediate medical attention. If internal damage or burns occur, immediate medical assistance is required. In case of doubt or when symptoms of feeling unwell persist, get medical attention.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Extinguisher powder or CO2. In case of more serious fires, also alcohol-resistant foam and water spray.

Unsuitable media

Do not use a direct stream of water to extinguish. In the presence of electrical voltage, you cannot use water or foam as extinguishing media.

Specific hazards

Fire can cause thick, black smoke. As a result of thermal decomposition, dangerous products can form: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. Exposure to combustion or decomposition products can be harmful to your health.

Instructions

Use water to cool tanks, cisterns, or containers close to the heat source or fire. Take wind direction into account.

Firefighter Protection

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. Do not inhale explosion and combustion gases.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Clear spills immediately. Remove persons to safety. Eliminate possible ignition points and ventilate the area. No smoking. Avoid breathing fumes.

Environmental

Dangerous product for the environment. Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Retain contaminated washing water and dispose it.

Cleanup methods

The contaminated area should be cleaned up immediately with: Water. Soak up inert absorbent and dispose as waste requiring special attention. Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents).

Materials: Water, inert absorbent, liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents)

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

When using do not eat, drink, smoke, sniff. personal protection equipment (refer to section 8). Handle with care - avoid bumps, friction and impact. Only use the material in places where open light, fire and other flammable sources can be kept away.

Storage

Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Protect against UV-radiation/sunlight Humidity.

Hygiene

Take care for general good hygiene and housekeeping.

Fire prevention

Only use the material in places where open light, fire and other flammable sources can be kept away. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Hands

Tested protective gloves must be worn EN ISO 374. The quality of the protective gloves resistant to chemicals must be chosen as a function of the specific working place concentration and quantity of hazardous substances.

Eyes

Eye glasses with side protection Face protection shield EN 166

Respiratory

If technical exhaust or ventilation measures are not possible or insufficient, respiratory protection must be worn. The filter class must be suitable for the maximum contaminant concentration (gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when handling the product. If the concentration is exceeded, self-contained breathing apparatus must be used. Particle filter device (EN 143).

Skin/Body

Full protection suit Wash contaminated clothing prior to re-use.
