First-aid measures

General information:

-

After inhalation:

Provide fresh air. In cases of sickness seek medical advice (show label or SDS if possible).

After contact with the skin:

Wash with plenty of water or water and soap. Seek medical advice in case of continuous irritation. Remove contaminated or soaked clothing.

After contact with the eyes:

Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Seek medical advice in case of continuous irritation.

After swallowing:

Drink plenty of water in small portions and induce vomiting. In cases of sickness seek medical advice (show label if possible).

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

water spray, extinguishing powder, foam, carbon dioxide.

Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons:

water jet .

Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, combustion products, resulting gases:

At low oxygen level: organic decomposition products.

Special protective equipment for fire fighting:

Use respiratory protection independent of recirculated air.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

Wear personal protection equipment (see section 8). Avoid sources of ignition.

Environmental precautions:

Prevent material from entering sewers or surface waters. Contain any fluid that runs out using suitable material (e.g. earth).

Observe local/state/federal regulations.

Methods for cleaning up:

Absorb with a liquid binding material such as diatomaceous earth and dispose of according to local/state/federal regulations.

Contain larger amounts and pump up into suitable containers.

Disposal considerations

Material:

Recommendation:

Dispose of according to regulations by incineration in a special waste incinerator. Observe local/state/federal regulations.

Uncleaned packaging:

Recommendation:

Completely discharge containers (no tear drops, no powder rest, scraped carefully). Containers may be recycled or re-used.
