Potential health effects
Primary routes of exposure
Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin contact, ingestion and inhalation. Routes of entry
for gases include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of entry for liquified gases.
4. First-aid measures
General advice:
Remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
If difficulties occur after vapour/aerosol has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and seek medical attention.
If on skin:
Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
If in eyes:
Flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open to facilitate rinsing. If irritation
develops, seek immediate medical attention.
If swallowed:
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Never induce vomiting or give anything
