Section 4 First Aid Measures

In case of inhalation:

Remove from area to fresh air. Seek medical attention if respiratory irritation develops or if breathing becomes difficult.

In case of skin contact:

After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

In case of eyes contact:

For eye contact, flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart to ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the surface of the eyes and lids with water. Get medical attention.

In case of ingestion:

Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. Call a physician.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

Causes serious eye irritation.

To protect playing rescuer advice and the special hints to the doctor:

Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:

Treat symptomatically.

Section 5 Fire-fighting Measures

Extinguishing agent

Suitable extinguishing media:

Foam, carbon dioxide (CO2), powder, water spray.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

Do not use water jets as they can disperse and spread fire.

Special hazards arising from the chemical:

In combustion emits toxic fumes of carbon dioxide / carbon monoxide.

Special fire fighting methods and special protective actions for fire-fighters:

Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus, and wear full-length firefighting gear, and cool the exposed container with water until all fire sources have been extinguished. Contain and dispose of fire-fighting water to prevent chemicals from entering the environment.

Section 6 Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Move any people not authorised to contain the emergency out of the area. Avoid coming in contact with the substance or handling containers without adequate protection. Use the personal protective equipment described in section 8. Use a respirator in the event of emissions/spillage of large quantities. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Remove all incompatible materials as outlined.

Environmental precautions:

Keep away from drains, water and soil. Advise authorities if spilled material has entered water courses or sewer or has contaminated soil or vegetation.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

Do not use equipment that can generate sources of ignition when cleaning. Clean the spilled material mechanically and put it in an appropriate container for disposal in accordance with section 13. After collection, ventilate and clean the affected area with water before granting access. Do not flush the water used for cleaning into watercourses or down drains.

Precautions to prevent the occurrence of secondary hazards:

Dispose of the collected spill immediately to avoid further leaks or sewers.
