First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Call medical doctor or poison control center immediately. Move exposed person to fresh air. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular, or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. Loosen tight clothing, such as a collar, tie, belt, or waistband. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: No known significant effects or critical hazards.

Skin contact

In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly after handling. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: No known significant effects or critical hazards.

Eye contact

Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower eyelids. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: No known significant effects or critical hazards.

Ingestion

Wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: No known significant effects or critical hazards.

Immediate Medical Attention

Call medical doctor or poison control center immediately.

Medical Treatment

No immediate treatment is normally required. No specific treatment.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use dry chemical, alcohol foam, carbon dioxide (CO₂), or water spray.

Unsuitable media

None known.

Specific hazards

Unusual fire and explosion hazards : None known.

Instructions

Determine the need to evacuate or isolate the area according to your local emergency plan. Use water spray to keep fire exposed containers cool.

Firefighter Protection

Self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing should be worn in fighting large fires involving chemicals.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Small spill

Stop spill at the source if it is safe to do so. Collect material in a manner that minimizes the generation of airborne dusts, and place in appropriate container for disposal.

Large spill

Stop spill at the source if it is safe to do so. Collect material in a manner that minimizes the generation of airborne dusts, and place in appropriate container for disposal.

Environmental

Prevent entry in storm sewers and waterways.

Cleanup methods

Collect material in a manner that minimizes the generation of airborne dusts, and place in appropriate container for disposal.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid breathing dusts. Use with adequate ventilation.

Storage

Store in a cool area. Keep containers closed when not in use.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Use with adequate local exhaust ventilation to maintain exposure levels below the occupational exposure limits.

Hands

Impervious gloves recommended (butyl rubber).

Eyes

Wear safety glasses or chemical goggles.

Respiratory

None needed with adequate ventilation. If the occupational exposure limit is exceeded, use an approved organic vapor respirator. Selection of respiratory protection depends on the contaminant type, form, and concentration. Select in accordance with OSHA 1910.134 or other applicable regulations and good industrial hygiene practice.

Skin/Body

Impervious clothing as needed to avoid skin contact.
