First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
If inhaled:
Remove to fresh air.
Give oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.
Keep respiratory tract clear.
In case of skin contact:
Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
In case of eye contact:
Get medical attention immediately.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.
If swallowed:
Obtain medical attention.
Do NOT induce vomiting.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms: corrosive effects
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment:
For specialist advice physicians should contact the Poisons Information Service.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
Fire blanket
Dry sand
Dry powder
High pressure inert gas, e.g. carbon dioxide jet.
Unsuitable extinguishing media:
Water
Foam
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards during firefighting:
Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapours.
Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters:
Wear a positive-pressure supplied-air respirator with full facepiece. Full protective flameproof clothing Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection.
Reacts violently with water, liberating extremely flammable gases.
Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions:
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection.
Wear respiratory protection.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow contact with soil, surface or ground water.
Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up:
Remove all sources of ignition.
Do not flush with water.
Dam up.
Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).
Pick up and transfer to properly labelled containers.
Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling:
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Remove all sources of ignition.
Use product only in closed system.
Use only in an area containing flame proof equipment.
Protect from contamination.
Hygiene measures:
Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storage areas and containers:
Keep under nitrogen. Keep container tightly closed. Keep in a well-ventilated place. Keep in a cool place away from water.
