Inhalation: Remove the victim from exposure into fresh air if adverse effects (e.g. dizziness, drowsiness or respiratory irritation) occur. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical advice if cough or other symptoms appear.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:       Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam

Unsuitable extinguishing media: Not known.

Exposure hazards (combustion products): On burning, this material may generate carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.

Special protective equipment for firefighters:       In the event of fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and a chemical protective suit.

Special methods/instructions: Use water spray to cool containers exposed to fire.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8) during cleaning. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhalation.

Environmental precautions: None.

Methods for cleaning up: Pick up with absorbent material (sand, earth or other non-combustible material). Residual traces can be flushed away with water.

Handling and storage

HANDLING       

Technical measures/ Precautions: Provide good ventilation (local exhaust) of the working area. Provide safety showers and eye wash station near the workplace. Wear personal protective equipment.
