Section 4: First-aid measures

General advice : Move out of dangerous area.

Consult a physician.
Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

If inhaled : Move to fresh air.

Consult a physician after significant exposure.

In case of skin contact : Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.
Wash off with soap and plenty of water.
Immediate medical treatment is necessary as untreated
wounds from corrosion of the skin heal slowly and with difficul-
ty.

In case of eye contact : Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tis-
sue damage and blindness.
In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty
of water and seek medical advice.
Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital.

Respiratory protection : Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust

ventilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates
that exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.
The filter class for the respirator must be suitable for the max-
imum expected contaminant concentration
(gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when han-
dling the product. If this concentration is exceeded, self-
contained breathing apparatus must be used.

Hand protection : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an

approved standard should be worn at all times when handling
chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is nec-
essary.

Eye protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should

be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.

Skin and body protection : Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concen-
tration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the spe-
cific work-place.
