4. First-aid measures
Inhalation^ Move to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Chemical burns must be treated by a physician. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Skin contact
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Eye contact
Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs.
Ingestion
Burning pain and severe corrosive skin damage. Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Permanent eye damage including blindness could result.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Chemical burns: Flush with water immediately. While flushing, remove clothes which do not adhere to affected area. Call an ambulance. Continue flushing during transport to hospital. Keep victim under observation. Symptoms may be delayed.
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.
General information
5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Unsuitable extinguishing Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. media
The product is combustible, and heating may generate vapors which may form explosive vapor/air mixtures. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Special protective equipment^ Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. and precautions for firefighters
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk.
Fire fighting equipment/instructions
Specific methods Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
General fire hazards Combustible liquid.
6. Accidental release measures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
