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.

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.

Inform emergency physician immediately. (key term: caustic eye burn)

Ingestion

Rinse mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Inform emergency physician immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms

Causes burns.

Hazards

Srongly irritating to corrosive.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

The initial focus is only on the local action, characterized by quickly progressing deep tissue damage.

In the eye, caustic liquids 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.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:       Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       

high volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Hazard-determining flue gases might develop in case of fire:

carbon dioxide

nitrogen oxides (NOx)

In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.5.3.       Advice for firefighters

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

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear personal protective equipment.

Keep out unprotected persons.

Environmental precautions

Drench with water

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

see section 13.

Pick up with suitable adsorbent material.

Assure sufficient ventilation.

Suitable binder:       

sand (for damming up), diatomaceous earth, acid binder, universal absorbent

Reference to other sections

Wear personal protective equipment.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Avoid residues of the product on the containers.

Ensure suitable suction/aeration at the work place and with operational machinery.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

Storage

Store in the original receptacle, keeping this tightly sealed, under cool and dry conditions.

Further information

In order to ensure due transportation, make certain that stacks are of the correct height, containers are securely fastened so as not to fall off, and labelled according to the regulations.

Advice on common storage

Store separately from oxidants
