First-aid measures

General advice:


Move out of dangerous area.
Consult a physician.
Treat symptomatically.
Get medical attention if symptoms occur.


 


Protection of first-aiders:


First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection
and use the recommended protective clothing
Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes.
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training.
It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.


 


If inhaled:


If inhaled, remove to fresh air.
Get medical attention if symptoms occur.


 


In case of skin contact:


Immediate medical treatment is necessary as untreated
wounds from corrosion of the skin heal slowly and with
difficulty.
If on skin, rinse well with water.
If on clothes, remove clothes.


 


In case of eye contact:


Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible
tissue 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.
Remove contact lenses.
Keep eye wide open while rinsing.
If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.


 


If swallowed:


Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water.
Keep respiratory tract clear.
Do NOT induce vomiting.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Take victim immediately to hospital.

Fire-fighting measures

5.1 Extinguishing media


Suitable extinguishing media:


Water spray
Alcohol-resistant foam
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Dry chemical


Unsuitable extinguishing media:


Exercise caution when using a high volume water jet as it may scatter and spread fire


5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture


Specific hazards during firefighting:


Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water
courses.


Hazardous combustion products :


No hazardous combustion products are known


5.3 Advice for firefighters


Special protective equipmentfor firefighters:


Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.


Specific extinguishing methods:


Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.


Further information:


Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains.
Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must
be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.


For safety reasons in case of fire, cans should be stored separately in closed containments.
Use a water spray to cool fully closed containers.

Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures


Personal precautions:


Use personal protective equipment.
Remove all sources of ignition.
Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive
concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.


6.2 Environmental precautions
Prevent product from entering drains.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform
respective authorities.


6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up:


Neutralise with acid.
Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible
absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth,
vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to
local / national regulations.

Handling and storage

7.1 Precautions for safe handling


Advice on safe handling :


Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause skin irritation
and/or dermatitis and sensitisation of susceptible persons.

product.
Do not breathe vapours/dust.
Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the
application area.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure.
To avoid spills during handling keep bottle on a metal tray.
Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.


 


Advice on protection against fire and explosion:


Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material.
Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge
(which might cause ignition of organic vapours). Keep away
from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.

Hygiene measures :


When using do not eat or drink. When using do not smoke.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.


 


7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities


Requirements for storage areas and containers:
