FIRST AID MEASURES General Advice If symptoms persist, call a physician. Eye Contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention. Skin Contact Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Inhalation Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Risk of serious damage to the lungs (by aspiration). Ingestion Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward. Most important symptoms and effects Difficulty in breathing. Inhalation of high vapor concentrations may cause symptoms like headache, dizziness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting Self-Protection of the First Aider Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, take precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. Notes to Physician Treat symptomatically. Symptoms may be delayed. SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media Water mist may be used to cool closed containers. Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons No information available. Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical Flammable. Containers may explode when heated. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment as required. Remove all sources of ignition.
