First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures:
-General advice : Move out of dangerous area. Remove contaminated clothing immediately and dispose of safely.
-If inhaled : Make the victim breathe fresh air. Make the victim blow his nose. Seek medical advice immediately.
-In case of skin contact : Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice immediately.
-In case of eye contact : Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice immediately.
-If swallowed : Do NOT induce vomiting. In case of acute poisoning, lie the victim in half upright position. Call emergency medical care. Put the victim under medical supervision. Keep the victim warm.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
-Symptoms : Burns.
IN ALL CASES, ALERT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATLY.
Irritations.
Coughing, dyspnea (respiratory disorders).
Pulmonary oedema may occur, even several hours after exposure.
-Hazards : Risk of pulmonary oedema.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
