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. Remove contact lenses.
After swallowing: make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult doctor if feeling unwell.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
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.
Firefighter Protection
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not breathe vapors, aerosols. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Do not let product enter drains.
Take up with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb®). Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.
Materials: liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb®)
