Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inform emergency services of exposure to the chemicals mentioned in this safety data sheet.
First-aid measures after inhalation
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a poison center or a doctor.
First-aid measures after skin contact
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Do not remove clothing if it sticks to the skin. Rinse skin with water/shower. Immediately call a POISON CENTER/doctor.
First-aid measures after eye contact
Immediately rinse with water for a prolonged period while holding the eyelids wide open. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Immediately call a POISON CENTER/doctor.
First-aid measures after ingestion
Rinse mouth out with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Immediately call a POISON CENTER/doctor.
Fire-fighting measures
Water spray. Dry powder. Foam. Carbon dioxide. Use extinguishing agent suitable for surrounding fire. Do not use a heavy water stream.
Firefighting instructions
Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection. Fight fire from safe distance and protected location. Use water spray or fog for cooling
exposed containers. Prevent fire fighting water from entering the environment.
Protection during firefighting
Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. Wear a self contained breathing apparatus. Wear fire/flame resistant/retardant clothing.
Accidental release measures
Evacuate area. Avoid all contact with skin, eyes, or clothing.
Protective equipment:
Wear recommended personal protective equipment.
Emergency procedures
Ventilate spillage area. Do not breathe dust, fume. Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Do not touch or walk on the spilled product.
