First-aid measures

Description of necessary first-aid measures


General information: Pay attention to self-protection. Remove victims from hazardous area. Immediately remove soiled or soaked clothing and remove it to a safe distance. Keep victim warm, in a stabilized position and covered. Do not leave the victim unattended. Place patients who are unconscious but breathing in the stabilized lateral position.


Inhalation: Potential for exposure by inhalation if dusts or smoke are generated. Move to fresh air. With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen. Consult a doctor immediately. 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. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.


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. When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately (key words: burns in eye).


Ingestion: Rinse mouth. Immediately give large quantities of water to drink. Seek medical advice. When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately.


Personal Protection for First-aid Responders: No data available.


 


Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed


Symptoms: Irritation of skin and mucous membranes Corrosive Daze Headache, vertigo, somnolence (sleepiness), nausea. Health injuries may be delayed.


Hazards: Strongly irritating to corrosive. Toxic if swallowed. . Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness.


 


Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment: The initial focus is only on the local action, possibly characterized by a progressive tissue irritation; caustic substances result in quickly progressing deep tissue damage. In the eye, caustic dusts or smoke cause, depending on the intensity of exposure, severe irritation, destruction, and ablation of the epithelium of the conjunctiva and cornea, corneal clouding, edema and ulcerations. Danger! Possible loss of eyesight! Superficial irritations and damage up to ulcerations and scarring develop on the skin. After accidental absorption in the body, the pathology and clinical findings are dependent on the kinetics of the substance (quantity of absorbed substance, the absorption time, and the effectiveness of early elimination measures (first aid)/ excretion - metabolism). A specific action of the substance is unknown.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media


Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder. Sand


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. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. In case of fire, remove the endangered barrels and bring to a safe place, if this can be done safely. Keep unauthorized personnel away.


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: Keep unauthorized personnel away.


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.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling


Technical measures (e.g. Local and general ventilation): Minimization of emissions by means of suitable technical measures such as flanges and valves with low leakage rates, recirculation of vapours.The substance must be handled under strictly controlled conditions in accordance with Article 17/18 of the REACH regulation.Refill and handle product only in closed system. Decant and handle product in separate areas only, e.g. use glove boxes, cabinets with differential pressure switch etc. Do not lead exhaust air back to workplace areas unfiltered. Exhaust filter or scrubber. exhaust air filter (HEPA-filter)Do not add wastewater to a biological wastewater treatment plant All precautionary measures indicated have to be observed. Provide for installation of emergency shower and eye bath. Ensure suitable suction/aeration at the work place and with operational machinery. In case product dust is released: Exhaust ventilation equipped with filters.


Safe handling advice: 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.


Contact avoidance measures: No data available.


 


Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities


Safe storage 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.When using do not smoke. Take precautionary measures against static charges, keep away from sources of ignition.Store in the original receptable, keeping this tightly sealed, under cool and dry conditions.Protect against humid air and water.


Safe packaging materials: No data available.


Storage Class: Non-combustible substances of acute toxicity, category 3 / hazardous substances that are toxic or produce chronic effects

Guideline: DIN EN 374
Material: Nitrile/Chloroprene
Glove thickness: 0.65 mm
Guideline: DIN EN 374
Additional Information: Accidental release measures
Additional Information: Selection of protective gloves to meet the requirements of specific workplaces., The suitability for a specific workplace should be discussed with the producers of the protective gloves., The information is based on our own tests, references from the literature and information from glove manufacturers, or derived by analogy with similar materials., Be aware that in daily use the durability of a chemical resistant protective glove can be notably shorter than the break through time measured according to EN 374, due to the numerous outside influences (e.g. temperature).


 


Skin and Body Protection: Select materials and equipment for physical protection depending on the concentration and volume of hazardous substances and the workplace involved.


 


Respiratory Protection: Accidental release measures In the case of respirable dust, use self-contained breathing apparatus. Note time limit for wearing respiratory protective equipment.
