First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

If health problems or doubts occur, always seek medical advice and show information given in this safety data sheet.  

Inhalation

Stop work, take the victim away or take him to fresh air and provide conditions for rest in a position that allows breathing. In case of unconsciousness keep airways open. If breathing difficulties persist, get medical attention.

Skin contact

Take off contaminated clothing. Wash the affected skin with plenty of water and soap. If any symptoms occur, seek medical advice.

Eye contact

If the victim is wearing contact lenses, they should be removed before washing, if possible. Flush eyes with plenty of water as soon as possible and as thoroughly as possible for about 15 minutes with the eyelid held wide open. Avoid strong water stream due to the risk of mechanical damage to the cornea. Contact an ophthalmologist.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth with water. Give plenty of water to drink, only if victim is conscious. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting. If you feel unwell or swallowed large amounts, call a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

CO2, foams, water spray and other extinguishing media suitable for materials burning around the product.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: water jet.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

The product is not flammable under normal conditions. The products of decomposition and combustion of the substance may be toxic: carbon oxides, sulphur oxides, manganese oxides vapors. Inhalation of gases formed during thermal decomposition may cause irritation and corrosive effects on the respiratory system. Lung effects may be delayed. Persons who have been exposed to the inhalation of decomposition gases should receive immediate medical attention.

Advice for firefighters

Use gas-tight protective clothing and personal breathing apparatus. Quench (smoke) fumes / gases / vapors / mists with a water spray. Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations. Do not allow contaminated fire extinguishing water to reach ground and surface waters.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Inform the surroundings about the accident; remove from the danger area all persons not involved in the liquidation of the accident; if necessary, order evacuation. Avoid direct long-term contact with the released substance. Avoid creating and inhaling dusts. If released in a closed space, ensure effective ventilation. Use personal protection equipment (see section 8 for information).

Environmental precautions

Prevent product from entering drains, underground and surface waters, and soil.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Secure the sewers inlets. If possible, protect against further spillage of the substance. Place damaged packaging in replacement packaging. Collect spilled product dry. Flush residue with plenty of water. The collected product and washings should be used for their intended purpose or disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Use as intended only by trained and properly equipped with personal protective equipment personnel in well ventilated rooms with exhaust ventilation. Do not breathe dust. When working with the product, do not eat, drink or smoke. Before entering food-handling areas, remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment. Wash hands before breaks and after finishing work. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

The product is hygroscopic - store in an airtight, labeled container in dry, cool and well-ventilated areas. Protect against sunlight and weather conditions. Keep away from incompatible materials and food
