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 dusts or smoke are generated.

Move victims into 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.

When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately (key words: burns in eye).

Ingestion

Rinse out mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Consult a physician immediately.

When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately.

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; caustic substances result in quickly progressing deep tissue damage.

In the eye, caustic dusts or smoke cause, depending on the intensity of exposure, severe irritation, destruction, and ablation of the epithelium of the conjunctiva and cornea, corneal clouding, edema and ulcerations.

Danger! Possible loss of eyesight!

Superficial irritations and damage up to ulcerations and scarring develop on the skin.

After accidental absorption in the body, the pathology and clinical findings are dependent on the kinetics of the substance (quantity of absorbed substance, the absorption time, and the effectiveness of early elimination measures (first aid)/ excretion - metabolism).

A specific action of the substance is unknown.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media

water spray, foam, dry powder

Unsuitable extinguishing media

high volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

In case of fire cool endangered containers with water.

Hazardous fumes in fires, specific to the product:

nitrogen oxides (NOx)

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters

In case of fire: wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Advice for firefighters

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil, or stretches of water Ensure there are sufficient retaining facilities for water used to extinguish fire. Contaminated fire-extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.

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