First-aid measures

First-aid measures general:

Remove immediately contaminated clothing.

First-aid measures after inhalation:

Fresh air, rest. Never attempt to induce vomiting : risk of inhalation. Take medical advice.

First-aid measures after skin contact:

Wash skin with plenty of water and soap. If necessary seek medical advice.

First-aid measures after eye contact:

Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyelids apart. Obtain emergency medical attention.

First-aid measures after ingestion:

Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth. May result in aspiration into the lungs, causing chemical pneumonia. Immediately consult a doctor/medical service.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:

Suitable extinguishing media: carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical powder, foam.

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:

Fire hazard: In case of fire it can release. carbon oxides (CO and CO2).

Advice for firefighters:

Protection during firefighting: Use a self-contained breathing apparatus and also a protective suit.

Accidental release measures

General measures: No naked flames, sparks, and do not smoke.

For non-emergency personnel:

Protective equipment: Wear suitable protective clothing.

Emergency procedures: Mark out the contaminated area with signs and prevent access to unauthorized personnel. Spill area may be slippery.

Environmental precautions

Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

For containment :Prevent spillage from spreading by using sand or earth. Dike and contain spill.

Methods for cleaning up: Take up liquid spill into absorbent material, e.g.: sand, earth, vermiculite.
