4.) First aid measures
General Information
Remove contaminated, soaked clothing immediately and dispose of safely.
After inhalation
Ensure supply of fresh air. By continuous complaints consult a physician.
After skin contact
In case of contact with skin wash off immediately with plenty of water. If skin problems persist, seek medical
advice.
After eye contact
In case of contact with eyes rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
After ingestion
When swallowed accidentally, do not induce vomiting, get medical help.
Advice to doctor
Treatment
Treat symptomatically
5.) Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Foam; Dry powder; Carbon dioxide; Water spray jet
Extinguishing media that must not be used for safety reasons
strong water jet
Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, its combustion products or
from resulting gases
In case of fires, hazardous combustion gases are formed: Carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon dioxide (CO2);
Combustion gases of organic materials must in principle be graded as inhalation poisons.
Special protective equipment for firefighting
Use self-contained breathing apparatus.
Other information (chapter 5.)
Cool endangered environment with water spray jet.
6.) Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
Environmental precautions
Prevent spread over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers). Do not discharge into the
drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up/taking up
Pick up with absorbent material (eg sand, kieselgur, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Dispose of
contaminated material as prescribed
