First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

After inhalation of greater quantities of dust, take affected person to fresh air.

Symptoms: cough or other symptoms

Skin contact

Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.

Eye contact

Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Check and remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing.

Ingestion

Rinse out mouth and then drink plenty of water. If swallowed, contact physician or poison control center immediately. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration.

Immediate Medical Attention

If symptoms persist, consult doctor. If swallowed, contact physician or poison control center immediately.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically and supportively.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use fire extinguishing methods suitable to surrounding conditions. Dry chemical, water spray or regular foam.

Unsuitable media

High volume water jet

Specific hazards

Hydrogen chloride gas, Lithium oxides. Ambient fire may liberate hazardous vapors.

Instructions

Use standard firefighting procedures. If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. Use water delivered as a fine spray to control fire and cool adjacent area.

Firefighter Protection

Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus. Equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Avoid formation of dust. Avoid inhalation of dusts. Ensure adequate ventilation. Wear protective clothing. Keep unprotected persons away.

Environmental

Do not allow to enter sewers/ surface or ground water.

Cleanup methods

Take up dry. Clean up affected area.

Similar products with comparable safety profiles

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Breathing must be protected when large quantities are decanted without local exhaust ventilation.

Storage

Keep container tightly sealed. Store in original container. Keep upright to prevent any leakage.

Hygiene

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Fire prevention

Keep ignition sources away. Do not smoke.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Good ventilation is desirable

Hands

Protective gloves. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/the substance/ the preparation. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation. The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

Eyes

Tightly sealed goggles

Respiratory

respiratory protection during dust formation.

Skin/Body

Protective work clothing
