4. First Aid Measures
Always seek medical attention after first aid measures are provided.
Inhalation: If inhaled, it will cause irritation and damage to the nose and throat. Remove the victim to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: It will cause irritation and burns to mouth, digestive tract and stomach. Contact the medical center quickly. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: On contact, it can cause itching, pain, swelling and redness. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention.
Eye Contact: It can cause severe damage to eyes. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush your eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids open. Get medical attention.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Toxic fumes, ammonia, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide may be formed in fire.
Explosion: Not known.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide or water jet.
Extinguishing Media Not recommended: Avoid using solid water jet as it may scatter the fire.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode
6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Ventilate area of leak or spill. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Restrict unprotected personnel from the area.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage:
Small Spill: Mop and pick up the material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container.
Large Spill: Contain spilled material. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g., sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep-up and remove to an approved disposal container. Avoid mist formation. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Provide ventilation. Wear full protective equipment and ensure proper ventilation.
7. Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat, or smoke while handling. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents and strong acids. Keep away from heat and source of fire preferably in a ventilated area. Keep in tightly closed container. Do not breathe mist or dust. Avoid contact with Copper, Iron, Zinc.
