First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures
Inhalation : Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If
not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs,
provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It may
be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Get medical attention if adverse health effects persist
or are severe. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get
medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen
tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Ingestion : Wash out mouth with water. Move exposed person to fresh air.
Keep person warm and at rest. If material has been swallowed and
the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to
drink. Stop if the exposed person feels sick as vomiting may be
dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low
so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention if
adverse health effects persist or are severe. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery
position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open
airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Skin contact : Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Get
medical attention. In the event of any complaints or symptoms, avoid
further exposure. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes
thoroughly before reuse.
Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the
upper and lower eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses.
Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Get medical attention if
irritation occurs.

of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any
personal risk or without suitable training. This material is very toxic to
aquatic organisms. Fire water contaminated with this material must
be contained and prevented from being discharged to any waterway,
sewer or drain.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and selfcontained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions,protective equipment and emergency procedures: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Avoid
breathing vapour or mist. Provide adequate ventilation. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment.

Environmental precautions: Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil,
waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil
or air). Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Small spill : Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dilute with
water and mop up if water-soluble or absorb with an inert dry material
and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Dispose of via
a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large spill : Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Prevent
entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas.
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent
material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and
place in container for disposal according to local regulations . Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the
spilt product.
