First-aid measures

Inhalation:

Potential for exposure by inhalation if dusts or smoke are generated.

Move victims into fresh air.

With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen.

Consult a doctor.

If the casualty is not breathing: Perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, notify emergency physician immediately.

Skin Contact:

Wash off affected area immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

Eye contact:

With eye held open, thoroughly rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.

Consult an ophthalmologist immediately if the symptoms persist.

Ingestion:

Rinse mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:       

Daze, Headache, vertigo, somnolence (sleepiness), nausea.

May cause lung damage if swallowed.

Health injuries may be delayed.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Hazards: Harmful in contact with skin and if swallowed. Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness.

Treatment:

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:

Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

Hazard-determining flue gases might develop in case of fire: Oxides of phosphorus Hydrogen bromide.

Advice for firefighters

Special fire fighting procedures:

Contaminated extinguishing water must be treated at a suitable disposal plant in accordance with waste management laws.

In case of fire, remove the endangered barrels and bring to a safe place, if this can be done safely.

Keep out unprotected persons.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

wear a self contained respiratory apparatus full protective suit

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear personal protective equipment;

keep out unprotected persons.

      

For non-emergency personnel: No data available.

      

For emergency responders: No data available.

Environmental Precautions:

Observe regulations on prevention of water pollution (check, dam up, cover up).

Do not allow entrance in sewage water, soil, stretches of water, drainage systems, surface water.

If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Collect up material.

Transfer into suitable containers for recovery or disposal.

Disposal according to local authority regulations.

Assure sufficient ventilation.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

Risk assessment and risk monitoring of all work places required.

Health, Safety and Emergency Management System recommended.

Written approval necessary in case of non-routine jobs, e.g. maintenance activities.

Regular safety training is a must.

All precautionary measures indicated have to be observed.

Decant and handle product in separate areas only, e.g. use glove boxes, cabinets with differential pressure switch etc.

Refill and handle product only in closed system.

Ensure that apparatus and pipelines are free from leaks.

Do not ventilate into the open.

Dedicated loading/unloading stations required.

Avoid residues of the product on the containers.

Trained personnel must be used.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

When using do not smoke.

Take precautionary measures against static charges, keep away from sources of ignition.

Store in the original receptacle, keeping this tightly sealed, under cool and dry conditions.

In order to ensure due transportation, make certain that stacks are of the correct height, containers are securely fastened so as not to fall off, and labelled according to the regulations.
