First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Cold water may be used. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention. Wash with a disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream. Seek medical attention.
Symptoms: irritated skin
Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention.
Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical attention if symptoms appear.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
SMALL FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam.
Do not use water jet.
May be combustible at high temperature. Slightly flammable to flammable in presence of open flames and sparks, of heat. As with most organic solids, fire is possible at elevated temperatures.
SMALL FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Use appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal container. If necessary: Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements.
Use a shovel to put the material into a convenient waste disposal container. Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system.
