- Following ingestion:

Drink plenty of water, provided person is conscious and induce vomiting.  Call a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

- Suitable extinguishing media:

Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide

- Unsuitable extinguishing media:

Not known

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

Development of toxic and irritating decomposition products.

- Advice for fire fighter: Wear self contained breathing apparatus if necessary. Contact with acids liberates very toxic gas (Hydrogen Cyanide).

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions:

Avoid causing dust. Ensure adequate ventilation.

- Environmental precautions:

No special protections required.

- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Pick up spilled product, keep in a closed container and hold for waste disposal.
