First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
After inhalation: fresh air.
In case of skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/ shower.
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. Immediately call in ophthalmologist. Remove contact lenses.
After swallowing: immediately make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult a physician.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediately call in ophthalmologist. Consult a physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry powder

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Material: butyl-rubber, Break through time: 480 min, Glove thickness: 0,7 mm, Protective index: Full contact, Manufacturer: Butoject® (KCL 898); Material: butyl-rubber, Break through time: 480 min, Glove thickness: 0,7 mm, Protective index: Splash contact, Manufacturer: Butoject® (KCL 898). Remarks: This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet, supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN 16523-1 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves (e.g. KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Internet: www.kcl.de).
Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU). Tightly fitting safety goggles
required when vapours/aerosols are generated. Our recommendations on filtering respiratory protection are based on the following standards: DIN EN 143, DIN 14387 and other accompanying standards relating to the used respiratory protection system. Recommended Filter : Filter A-(P2) type: The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.
