SECTION 4: First aid measures

General information Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
protect themselves. In case of shortness of breath, give oxygen. Keep victim warm. Keep victim
under observation.
4.1. Description of first aid measures
Inhalation Move to fresh air. For breathing difficulties, oxygen may be necessary. Call a physician if
symptoms develop or persist.
Skin contact Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Get
medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Wash clothing separately before reuse.
Eye contact Flush eyes immediately with large amounts of water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy
to do. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Ingestion IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTRE or doctor/physician. If swallowed, rinse
mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Do not induce vomiting without medical advice.
If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Do not use
mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested the substance. Induce artificial respiration with the aid
of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.

Water fog. Foam. Dry powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Do not use water jet.
Hydrogen Chloride (HCl). Carbon oxides.
Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure
demand breathing apparatus, protective clothing and face mask.
Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove container, if no risk is involved.
Prevent runoff from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers or drinking water supply.
Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with
local regulations.
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless
wearing appropriate protective clothing.
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Use personal protection recommended in Section 8 of the
MSDS.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water. Contact local
authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquatic environment. Avoid discharge into drains, water
courses or onto the ground.
Remove sources of ignition.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Following product
recovery, flush area with water. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined
areas.
Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.
Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13.
For personal protection, see section 8. For waste disposal, see section 13.
Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Avoid contact with skin. Avoid contact with eyes.
Avoid prolonged exposure. Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination.

controls
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Follow standard monitoring procedures.
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Wear tight-fitting goggles or face shield.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. The protective gloves to be used must comply with
the specification of EU directive 89/686/EC and the resultant standard EN374. The above given
information is based on laboratory test in line with EN374. The recommendation is only valid for
the supplied product and the stated application. Special working conditions, like heat or
mechanical strain, which deviate from the test conditions, can reduce the protective effect
provided by the recommended glove.
Personal protection equipment should be chosen according to the CEN standards and in
discussion with the supplier of the personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with the skin.
Wear chemical protective equipment that is specifically recommended by the manufacturer. Wear
protective gloves.
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators.

Wash hands after handling.
Environmental manager must be informed of all major releases.
