Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

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 victims unattended.

If the casualty is unconscious: Place the victim in the recovery position.

Inhalation

Potential for exposure by inhalation if aerosols or mists are generated.

After inhalation move subject to fresh air.

With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen. Consult a doctor.

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.

Continue decontamination with polyethylene glycol 400 after initial rinsing with water and then wash with water and soap.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

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.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms

Irritation of skin and mucous membranes

Hazards

irritant effects

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

The initial focus is only on the local action, possibly characterized by a progressive tissue irritation.

Coughing is a symptom of a respiratory tract irritation after inhalation of aerosols or mists from caustic liquids.

In the eye, irritating liquids cause, depending on the intensity of exposure, irritation of the conjunctiva and, in exceptional cases, damage to the cornea.

There is a danger of blindness if corneas are damaged!

Superficial irritations and only infrequent damage with ulcerations develop on the skin.

An irritation of the mucous membranes may develop and lead to coughing after inhalation.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media: All extinguishing substances suitable.

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

In the case of fire, the following hazardous smoke fumes may be produced: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.

organic products of decomposition.

Advice for firefighters

Contaminated extinguishing water must be treated at a suitable disposal plant in accordance with waste management laws.

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil or stretches of water.

In case of fire, remove the endangered containers and bring to a safe place, if this can be done safely.

Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with the regulations.

Pay attention to self-protection.

Keep out unprotected persons.

In case of fire: full protective suit and wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Keep unauthorized persons away.

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
