First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

Skin

Immediately remove all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water / shower. Immediately remove contaminated clothing. Immediately call a poison center or

doctor. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.

Eyes

Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Immediately call a poison center or doctor.

Inhaled

If breathing is difficult remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Immediately call a poison center or doctor.

Swallowed

Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth. Immediately call a poison center or doctor.

Advice for first-aid providers

When providing first aid always protect yourself against exposure to chemicals or blood born diseases by wearing gloves, masks and eye protection. If providing CPR use mouthpieces, resuscitation bags, pocket masks or other ventilation devices. After providing first aid wash your exposed skin with soap and water.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing Media

CO2, dry chemical, or foam. Water can be used to cool and protect exposed material.

Special hazards arising from substance or mixture

Advice for firefighters

Recommend wearing self-contained breathing apparatus. Water may be ineffective fighting fires.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal protective equipment must be worn. In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. Ventilate area if spilled in a confined space or other

poorly ventilated area.

Environmental precautions

Take precautions to avoid release to the environment. Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Pick up free liquid for recycle and/or disposal. Residual liquid can be absorbed on inert material.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Handle material under an inert atmosphere. Open container in a well ventilated area. Avoid breathing vapors. Keep containers closed when not in use. Do not

discharge into drains or the environment, dispose to an authorized waste collection point. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.Do not breathe dust or mist. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Wash thoroughly after handling. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Empty container contains product residue which may exhibit hazards of product. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Dispose of packaging or containers in accordance with local, regional, national and international regulations.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilites

Store material under an inert atmosphere. Take precautions to avoid release to the environment. Store locked up.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Use local exhaust ventilation to control mists or vapors. Additional ventilation or exhaust may be required to maintain air concentrations below recommended

exposure limits.

Eye/face protection

Chemical goggles or faceshield.

Skin protection

Use nitrile or neoprene gloves.

Long sleeve shirt is recommended. Wear either a chemical protective suit or apron when potential for contact with material exists. Use chemically protective boots when necessary to avoid contaminating shoes. Do not wear rings, watches or similar apparel that could entrap the material and cause a burn. Launder

contaminated clothing before reuse.

Respiratory Protection

Use airline or self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) in positive pressure mode when the potential exists to exceed the recommended exposure limit. Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate respiratory protection for your specific use of this material.

Hygiene Measures
