4. First aid measures
Inhalation Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a physician
or poison control center immediately.
Skin contact Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Call a
physician or poison control center immediately. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on
unaffected skin.
Eye contact Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do.
Continue rinsing. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Ingestion 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.
Most important Corrosive effects. Irritation of eyes and mucous membranes. May cause temporary blindness and
symptoms/effects, acute and severe eye damage. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision.
delayed May cause allergic skin reaction.
Personal protection for Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
first-aid responders protect themselves. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Notes to physician In case of shortness of breath, give oxygen. Keep victim warm. Keep victim under observation.
Symptoms may be delayed.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media Water fog.
Extinguishing media to avoid Water. Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Specific hazards during fire None.
fighting
Special fire fighting None.
procedures
Protection of fire-fighters None.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, Keep unnecessary personnel away. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages
protective equipment and cannot be contained. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
emergency procedures appropriate protective clothing. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Ensure adequate
ventilation. Avoid inhalation of vapors or mists.
Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Spill cleanup methods Large Spills: Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent
spreading. Absorb spillage to prevent material damage. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth
and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.

Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the
MSDS.
