First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
- Inhalation: Air the area. Move immediately the contaminated patient from the area and keep him at rest in a well ventilated area. If you feel unwell seek medical advice.
- Direct contact with skin (of the pure product): Take contaminated clothing Immediately off. Wash immediately with plenty of running water and possibly with soap, the areas of the body that have, or are only suspected to have, come in contact with the product. In case of contact with skin, wash immediately with water.
- Direct contact with eyes (of the pure product): Wash immediately and thoroughly with running water, keeping eyelids open for at least 10 minutes, then protect your eyes with a dry sterile gauze. Seek medical advice immediately Do not use eye drops or ointments of any kind before the examination or advice from an oculist.
- Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water of the subject. Consult a physician.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: No data available.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
- If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
- If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.

Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
- Advised extinguishing agents: Water spray, CO2, foam, dry chemical, depending on the materials involved in the fire.
- Extinguishing means to avoid: Water jets. Use water jets only to cool the surfaces of the containers exposed to fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: No data available.
Advice for firefighters:
Use protection for the breathing apparatus, safety helmet and full protective suit. The spray water can be used to protect the people involved in the extinction. You may also use selfrespirator, especially when working in confined and poorly ventilated area and if you use halogenated extinguishers (Halon 1211 fluobrene, Solkan 123, NAF, etc...). Keep containers cool with water spray.
