First aid measures Skin contact Eye contact Ingestion Inhalation Notes to physician Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Immediate medical attention is required. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician. Call a physician or Poison Control Centre immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Consult a physician. Treat symptomatically. 5. Fire-fighting measures Suitable extinguishing media Special protective equipment for firefighters Water spray. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Foam. Dry chemical. As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. Use personal protective equipment. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions Methods for cleaning up Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Use personal protective equipment. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Prevent product from entering drains. Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so See Section 12 for additional information. 7. Handling and storage Handling Storage Always wear reccommended Personal Protective Equipment. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Page 4 / 8
