4. First aid measures

General information: First aider: Pay attention to self-protection!
Remove the casualty into fresh air and keep them calm. Remove contaminated clothing. If
victim is at risk of losing consciousness, position and transport on their side.
In case of inhalation: Provide for adequate fresh air. If breathing becomes irregular or ceases, apply rescue
breathing or artificial respiration immediately, where required supply oxygen. Immediately
get medical attention.
Following skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Immediately get medical attention. Treat
by intermittent water washes and polyethylene glycol (e.g. PEG300 or PEG400). Time is
essential to prevent tissue destruction. Wash as much product from the skin as possible
with water and PEG alternating at least for 30 minutes or until further medical attention is
received. When using PEG gloves must be worn.
After eye contact: If product gets into the eye, keep eyelid open and rinse immediately with large quantities
of water, for at least 30 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do.
Continue rinsing. Subsequently seek the immediate attention of an ophthalmologist.
After swallowing: Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Immediately
get medical attention.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
In case of inhalation:
Mucous membrane irritation, cough, shortage of breath, damage of respiratory tract.

Information to physician
Symptoms and dangers:
No specific antidote therapy for phenol poisoning is known. Therefore it is important to
remove the phenol completely from the body surface and out of the body as quickly as
possible, and in the case of inhalation prophylactic treatment to prevent pulmonal oedema
is of great importance. Phenol causes strong caustic burns of the skin and mucous
membranes due to its protein degenerating action. The skin initially discolours white, later
red. After initial pain, local anaesthesia appears. Absortive poisoning by large amounts of
phenol is possible also through small affected skin regions and quickly leads to paralysis
of the central nervous system as well as strong depression of the body temperature.
Inhaling phenol vapors can lead to damage of the bronchial system and pulmonal
oedema. Systemic damage to kidneys, liver and heart as well as neuropsychiatric
disturbances are produced.
Treatment:
Thoroughly clean the wetted skin areas, if possible with polyethylene glycol (e.g.
polyethylene glycol 300). In case of eye contact, rinse copiously with water, in case of
burns rinse continuously with water as far as possible and take to an eye specialist or
eye clinic. In case of inhalation, to prevent pulmonal oedemia, initiate inhalative cortisone
therapy as early as possible (e.g. every 10 minutes 5 strokes of a cortisone containing
aerosol dosing spray); administer codeine against dry coughing. In case of commencing
or manifested pulmonary oedemia, systemic administration of cortisone. Caution: A low
symptom or symptom-free interval is possible. If swallowed, gastric lavage after
intubation, activated charcoal, saline laxative.

5. Fire fighting measures

Flash point/flash point range:
177.8 °F
Auto-ignition temperature: No data available
Suitable extinguishing media:
Dry chemical powder, foam, water spray jet
In enclosed areas: carbon dioxide
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons:
Full water jet.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Combustible liquid. Vapors are heavier than air and will travel at floor level.
In case of warming: Development of explosive gas/vapor.
Hazardous vapors may form during fires.
In case of fire may be liberated: carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing.
Additional information: Heating will lead to pressure increase: Danger of bursting and explosion. Move container
away or cool with water from a protected position. Collect contaminated fire extinguishing
water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residuals and
contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations
of the local authorities.

Phenol, liquid: Collect spillage. Absorb with liquid-binding material (e.g. sand,
diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents) and place in closed containers for
disposal. Final cleaning.
Collect the rinsing water when cleaning-down contaminated equipment and plant
components (to prevent phenol from escaping into deep soil layers).
