Eye contact : Rinse the eyes immediately with plenty of water for at least ten minutes. Obtain medical attention.
Ingestion : The substance may cause lung damage if swallowed - do not induce vomiting - seek medical advice immediately.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media : Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical. Do not use a direct water jet.
Special hazards : CO/CO2, Smoke
Advice for firefighters : Avoid inhalation of smoke and fumes. In case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions :
Gloves and eye protection should be worn when handling spillages. Avoid flames or other potential sources of ignition.
Avoid skin/eye contact and inhalation of vapour.
Environmental precautions: Do not allow discharge into drains, soil or any aquatic environment.
Methods for cleaning up :
Remove all sources of ignition. Provide effective ventilation. Absorb spillages on porous inert material such as earth, sand or vermiculite and dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
Good personal washing routines should be followed after accidental release. Ensure adequate ventilation in working areas following accidental release.
Large spillages should be contained by use of sand or other inert material, transferred to suitable container and recovered or disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
