Consult a physician immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:

After accidental absorption in the body, the pathology and clinical findings are dependent on the kinetics of the noxious substance (quantity of absorbed

substance, the absorption time, and the effectiveness of early elimination measures (first aid)/ excretion - metabolism).

Continue with first aid measures.

Depending on the pathology and clinical findings, patient monitoring and symptomatic treatment are necessary.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder.

Unsuitable extinguishing media

high volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

In case of fire cool endangered containers with water.

Carbon oxides

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

In case of fire use self-contained breathing apparatus if necessary.

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Advice for firefighters:

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil, or stretches of water Ensure there are sufficient retaining facilities for water used to extinguish fire. Contaminated fire-extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.
