Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical advice/attention. In case of doubt or persistent symptoms, consult always a physician.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
carbon dioxide (CO2), powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray.
Strong water jet.
Not flammable. Heating will cause a rise in pressure with a risk of bursting.
Evacuate area. Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers. Contain the extinguishing fluids by bunding. Prevent fire fighting water from entering the environment.
Firefighter Protection
Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. Self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Keep upwind. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear recommended personal protective equipment. Do not breathe vapours. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking.
Small quantities of liquid spill: take up in non-combustible absorbent material and shovel into container for disposal.
Recover large spills by pumping (use an explosion proof or hand pump).
Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Notify authorities if product enters sewers or public waters.
