First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
After inhalation: fresh air. Immediately call in physician. If breathing stops: immediately apply artificial respiration, if necessary also oxygen.
In case of skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/ shower. Consult a physician.
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. 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 physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry powder
For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.
Carbon oxides. Combustible. Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Forms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating. Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.
Remove container from danger zone and cool with water.
Firefighter Protection
Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not breathe vapors, aerosols. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Do not let product enter drains.
Take up carefully with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb®). Clean up affected area.
