First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Call a physician or poison control centre immediately. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Skin contact

Immediate medical treatment is necessary as untreated wounds from corrosion of the skin heal slowly and with difficulty. Take victim immediately to hospital. If on skin, rinse well with water. If on clothes, remove clothes.

Eye contact

In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital. Remove contact lenses. Keep eye wide open while rinsing. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

Symptoms: Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tissue damage and blindness.

Ingestion

Keep respiratory tract clear. Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If symptoms persist, call a physician. Take victim immediately to hospital.

Immediate Medical Attention

Take victim immediately to hospital. Call a physician or poison control centre immediately.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Water spray, Alcohol-resistant foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry chemical

Unsuitable media

Exercise caution when using a high volume water jet as it may scatter and spread fire

Specific hazards

Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.

Instructions

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Firefighter Protection

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.

Environmental

Prevent product from entering drains. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Cleanup methods

Soak up with inert absorbent material

Materials: sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust
