First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Do not apply mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration. Get medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: Coughing, sneezes.

Skin contact

Wash skin with plenty of water and soap. Remove clothing while washing. Get medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: Redness. Itching.

Eye contact

Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Call a physician immediately.

Symptoms: Serious damage to eyes. Burning sensation. Redness. Pain.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth with water. Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: May cause irritation to the digestive tract.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Alcohol-resistant foam. Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide.

Unsuitable media

Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Specific hazards

Flammable liquid and vapour. Vapour could travel to source of ignition and flash back. Heating will cause a rise in pressure with a risk of bursting.

Instructions

Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.

Firefighter Protection

Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. Self-contained breathing apparatus. Complete protective clothing.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

No flames, no sparks. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Ventilate spillage area. Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Wear personal protective equipment. Do not breathe mist, vapours. Do not touch or walk on the spilled product. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Environmental

Avoid release to the environment.

Cleanup methods

Take up liquid spill into absorbent material. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible.

Materials: inert absorbent material (for example sand, sawdust, a universal binder, silica gel)
