First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Place unconscious person on their side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place. When breathing is difficult, properly trained personnel may assist affected person by administering oxygen. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.

Symptoms: This is unlikely to occur but symptoms similar to those of ingestion may develop. In case of overexposure, organic solvents may depress the central nervous system causing dizziness and intoxication, and at very high concentrations unconsciousness and death.

Skin contact

Immediately remove contaminated clothing. Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing.

Symptoms: Skin irritation.

Eye contact

Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention promptly if symptoms occur after washing.

Symptoms: May cause blurred vision and serious eye damage.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Give plenty of water to drink. Give milk instead of water if readily available. Keep affected person under observation. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention immediately. Show this Safety Data Sheet to the medical personnel.

Symptoms: May cause unconsciousness, blindness and possibly death.

Immediate Medical Attention

Get medical attention immediately (Ingestion), Get medical attention if any discomfort continues (General/Inhalation), Get medical attention promptly if symptoms occur after washing (Eye contact).

Medical Treatment

No specific recommendations.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Alcohol-resistant foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemicals, sand, dolomite etc. Do not use water, if avoidable.

Unsuitable media

Instructions

Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours.

Firefighter Protection

Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Environmental

Spillages or uncontrolled discharges into watercourses must be reported immediately to the Environmental Agency or other appropriate regulatory body.

Cleanup methods

Collect and place in suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely.

Materials: vermiculite, dry sand or earth

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. Observe any occupational exposure limits for the product or ingredients.

Hands

Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. In case of intensive contact, wear protective gloves (EN 374). Adhere to the manufacturer's instructions and information relating to the use, storage, care and replacement of protective gloves. protective gloves shall be replaced immediately when physically damaged or worn. Appropriate Material - Butyl, Material Thickness - 0.6 to 0.8mm, Breakthrough Time - 8Hrs

Eyes

Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical. The following protection should be worn: Chemical splash goggles.

Respiratory

If ventilation is inadequate, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. Wear a respirator fitted with the following cartridge: Gas filter, type A2.

Skin/Body

Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of liquid contact and repeated or prolonged vapour contact.

Environmental

Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
