First-aid measures

Eye Contact:

Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids

open. Cold water may be used. Do not use an eye ointment. Seek medical attention.

Skin Contact:

If the chemical got onto the clothed portion of the body, remove the contaminated clothes as quickly as possible, protecting

your own hands and body. Place the victim under a deluge shower. If the chemical got on the victim's exposed skin, such

as the hands : Gently and thoroughly wash the contaminated skin with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly

careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin. Cold water may be used. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Wash

contaminated clothing before reusing.

Serious Skin Contact:

Wash with a disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream. Seek medical attention.

Inhalation: Allow the victim to rest in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.

Serious Inhalation:

Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If

breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. WARNING: It may

be hazardous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation when the inhaled material is toxic, infectious or

corrosive. Seek immediate medical attention.

Ingestion:

Do not induce vomiting. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform

mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear.

Extinguishing Media: Do NOT use water directly on fire. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.

Accidental release measures

Small Spill:

Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. If

necessary: Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate.

Large Spill:

Corrosive liquid. Stop leak if without risk. Absorb with DRY earth, sand or other non-combustible material. Do not get water

inside container. Do not touch spilled material. Use water spray curtain to divert vapor drift. Prevent entry into sewers,p. 3

basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Call for assistance on disposal. Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of

sodium carbonate
