First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove to fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Skin contact

Wash off with soap and water. If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

Eye contact

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water, also under the eyelids. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

Ingestion

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If symptoms persist, call a physician. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Unsuitable media

High volume water jet

Specific hazards

Vapors may produce explosive mixtures with air at temperatures over the flash point. The vapour may be invisible, heavier than air and spread along ground.

Instructions

Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.

Firefighter Protection

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Choose protective equipment according to size of fire.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Environmental

Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Avoid subsoil penetration.

Cleanup methods

Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Materials: sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders
