First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove victim into fresh air. In case of respiratory problems, consult a doctor/medical service.
Symptoms: Irritation of the respiratory tract. Irritation of the nasal mucous membranes. Coughing. Dry/sore throat. Dizziness. Drowsiness. EXPOSURE TO HIGH CONCENTRATIONS: Headache. Nausea. Respiratory difficulties. Central nervous system depression. Disturbances of consciousness. Coordination disorders. Mental confusion. Disturbances of heart rate.
If possible, wipe up/dry remove chemical. Then rinse/shower immediately with (lukewarm) water. If irritation persists, consult a doctor/medical service.
Symptoms: Tingling/irritation of the skin. Red skin. Swelling of the skin.
Rinse immediately with (lukewarm) water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If irritation persists, consult a doctor/medical service.
Symptoms: No effects known.
Rinse mouth with water. If you feel unwell, consult a doctor/medical service. Do not wait for symptoms to occur to consult Poison Center.
Symptoms: Nausea. Gastrointestinal complaints. Risk of aspiration pneumonia. Central nervous system depression. Symptoms similar to those listed under inhalation.
Immediate Medical Attention
In case of injury and/or intoxication, call the European emergency number 112.

DIRECT FIRE HAZARD: Highly flammable liquid and vapour. Gas/vapour flammable with air within explosion limits. INDIRECT FIRE HAZARD: May be ignited by sparks. May build up electrostatic charges: risk of ignition. DIRECT EXPLOSION HAZARD: Gas/vapour explosive with air within explosion limits. INDIRECT EXPLOSION HAZARD: may be ignited by sparks.
Cool tanks/drums with water spray/remove them into safety. Do not move the load if exposed to heat.
Firefighter Protection
Heat/fire exposure: self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 136 + EN 137).
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Keep upwind. Mark the danger area. Consider evacuation. Close doors and windows of adjacent premises. Stop engines and no smoking. No naked flames or sparks. Spark- and explosionproof appliances and lighting equipment. Keep containers closed. Wash contaminated clothes.
Large spills/in enclosed spaces: self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 136 + EN 137). Large spills/in enclosed spaces: gas-tight suit (EN 943).
Prevent soil and water pollution.
Take up liquid spill into a non combustible material e.g.: sand, earth, vermiculite. Scoop absorbed substance into closing containers. Carefully collect the spill/leftovers. Damaged/cooled tanks must be emptied. Clean contaminated surfaces with an excess of water. Take collected spill to manufacturer/competent authority. Wash clothing and equipment after handling.
Materials: sand, earth, vermiculite
