First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Call a poison centre or physician if you feel unwell. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration.
Where Diphoterine is not available, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap. Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Immediately seek medical attention.
Where Diphoterine is not available, rinse eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 20 minutes. Protect uninjured eye. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing and seek immediate medical attention.
Where Diphoterine is not available, rinse mouth with copious amounts of water. Seek urgent medical advice.
Immediate Medical Attention
If exposed or concerned, seek immediate medical attention. Seek urgent medical advice for ingestion. Immediately seek medical attention for skin contact.
Medical Treatment
No special immediate treatment required.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Carbon dioxide, alcohol resistant foam or dry chemical powder., Use water to extinguish fire.
No known unsuitable media.
Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapours.
Firefighter Protection
As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep personnel away from spill/leak.
Prevent further leakage if safe to do so. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Absorb the spilled material with an inert absorbent before transferring into an airtight container.
Materials: sand, silica gel, rag, vermiculite

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Use only under a chemical fume hood. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flame/hot surfaces. Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge. Ensure adequate exhaust ventilation, especially if dust, aerosol or fumes will be generated. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Keep container tightly closed and upright. Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed in a cool area away from sunlight or heat sources.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before and after use. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Keep away from heat/sparks/open flame/hot surfaces. Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge. Where possible, use anti static and spark proof equipment when handling.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use only under a chemical fume hood ensuring adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting/equipment. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Handle with impermeable gloves. Inspect gloves before use. Gloves must satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN374 derived from it. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles which adhere to European standard EN 166. Ensure eye bath is to hand.
Product should be handled in a fume cupboard with adequate extraction. No respiratory equipment is needed under normal use conditions.
Wear appropriate protective clothing ensuring all skin is covered. Wear safety shoes that meet at least S1 standards. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Avoid discharge into the environment, see section 6.2.
