Ingestion : Never attempt to induce vomiting. Rinse mouth out with water
Further information : Use appropriate protective equipment when treating a contaminated person. Place contaminated clothing in a sealed bag for disposal.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
- Suitable : Water spray - Foam - Multi-purpose powders - carbon dioxide (CO2)
- Not suitable : Strong water jet
Specific hazards : combustibe - On heating or during combustion : Toxic gases or vapours are released.
Specific fire fighting methods : Do not dispose of fire-fighting water in the environment
Protection of fire-fighters : Self-contained breathing apparatus - Boots, gloves, goggles
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions :
- Do not breathe vapours.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Protection equipment : appropriate gloves - safety glasses - suitable protective clothing.
- Stop the leak. Turn leaking containers leak-side up to prevent the escape of liquid.
Environmental precautions : Dam up. Prevent product from entering drains.
Recovery : Contain spillage, soak up with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and transfer to a container for disposal according to local / national regulations. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
- Prevent the product from spreading into the environment
- For a large spillage, contain the spillage by bunding.
Methods for cleaning up :
- Prohibited : Do not spray water into packaging which has been damaged or overturned - Do not put the spilled material back into the original container for re-use.
- Recovery : Absorb the product onto porous material. Recover the product by vacuuming/shovelling or sweeping. Collect up the product and place it in a spare container suitable labelled . Keep the recovered product for subsequent disposal.
- Cleaning/Decontamination : Wash non -recoverable remainder with large amounts of water. Recover the cleaning water for subsequent disposal.
- Disposal : Dispose of all contaminated materials in accordance with current regulations.
