Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. Keep warm. Get immediate medical attention.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Immediately wash skin with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes, while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention especially, if irritation develops, persists, or symptoms of overexposure become apparent.
👁️ Eye Contact
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes, while separating the eyelids with fingers. Get immediate medical attention if irritation persists, or symptoms of overexposure become apparent.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
If swallowed, call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed by medical personnel. Get medical attention.
Fire Fighting Measures & Emergency Response
Fire suppression methods, extinguishing media, and firefighting safety procedures
✅ Suitable Extinguishing Media
If water is compatible with the other materials involved in the fire, cool container with water spray from a safe distance. If it is safe do so, move container away from fire, then use an extinguisher suitable for the materials involved in the fire.
⚠️ Specific Fire Hazards
This material is non-combustible but pressurised container can be a hazard in the presence of fire.
🛡️ Firefighter Protection Equipment
As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
Accidental Release Measures & Spill Response
Emergency spill cleanup procedures, containment methods, and environmental protection
🚨 Emergency Procedures
Keep upwind of leak. Evacuate area until gas has dispersed. Shut off source of leak if it is safe to do so. See also section 8.
💧 Small Spill Procedures
Shut off leak if it is safe to do so. Ventilate spill area and allow to evaporate. Refer to section 13 for disposal or reporting requirements.
🌍 Environmental Precautions
Do not allow material to enter drains or streams.

Safe Handling & Storage Procedures
Industrial handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace safety requirements
⚠️ Handling Precautions
• This product should be handled only by, or under the close supervision of, those properly qualified in the handling and use of potentially hazardous chemicals, who should take into account the fire, health and chemical hazard data.
• It should always be handled in an efficient fume hood or equivalent system.
• The user should consider that the toxicological and physiological properties of many compounds are not yet well determined and that new hazardous products may arise from reactions between chemicals.
• Care should be taken to prevent any chemical from coming into contact with the skin or eyes and from contaminating personal clothing.
🏪 Storage Conditions
• Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from sources of heat and incompatible substances.
• Keep container tightly closed when not in use.
🧼 General Hygiene Measures
Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhaling vapor or mist.
Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Where such systems are not effective wear suitable personal protective equipment, which performs satisfactorily and meets OSHA or other recognized standards. Consult with local procedures for selection, training, inspection and maintenance of the personal protective equipment.
🧤 Hand Protection
Wear appropriate protective gloves. Consult glove manufacturers for glove permeability data.
👁️ Eye Protection
Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 1910.133, OSHA eye and face protection regulation, or the European standard EN 166.
😷 Respiratory Protection
A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an appropriate cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited to airborne concentrations that are typically within 10 times the exposure limit. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. A respiratory protection program that meets OSHAs 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirators use.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Wear suitable protective clothing to prevent contact with skin.
