Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SWALLOWED
- For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor at once.
- Urgent hospital treatment is likely to be needed.
- If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
- If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down
position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
- Observe the patient carefully.
- Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced
awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
- Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as
casualty can comfortably drink.
- Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
EYE
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
- Immediately hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running
water.
- Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from
eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
- Continue flushing until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a
doctor, or for at least 15 minutes.
- Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
- Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by
skilled personnel.
SKIN
If skin or hair contact occurs:
- Immediately flush body and clothes with large amounts of water, using safety
shower if available.
- Quickly remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
- Wash skin and hair with running water. Continue flushing with water until
advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre.
- Transport to hospital, or doctor.

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
INHALED
- If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
- Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
- Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed,
where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
- Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve
resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if
necessary.
- Transport to hospital, or doctor.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
For acute or short-term repeated exposures to highly alkaline materials:
- Respiratory stress is uncommon but present occasionally because of soft tissue
edema.
- Unless endotracheal intubation can be accomplished under direct vision,
cricothyroidotomy or tracheotomy may be necessary.
- Oxygen is given as indicated.
- The presence of shock suggests perforation and mandates an intravenous line
and fluid administration.
- Damage due to alkaline corrosives occurs by liquefaction necrosis whereby the
saponification of fats and solubilisation of proteins allow deep penetration
into the tissue.
Alkalis continue to cause damage after exposure.
INGESTION:
- Milk and water are the preferred diluents
No more than 2 glasses of water should be given to an adult.
- Neutralising agents should never be given since exothermic heat reaction may
compound injury.
* Catharsis and emesis are absolutely contra-indicated.
* Activated charcoal does not absorb alkali.
* Gastric lavage should not be used.
Supportive care involves the following:
- Withhold oral feedings initially.
- If endoscopy confirms transmucosal injury start steroids only within the first
48 hours.
- Carefully evaluate the amount of tissue necrosis before assessing the need for
surgical intervention.
- Patients should be instructed to seek medical attention whenever they develop
difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia).
SKIN AND EYE:
- Injury should be irrigated for 20-30 minutes.
Eye injuries require saline. [Ellenhorn & Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].
Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
- There is no restriction on the type of extinguisher which may be used.

Exposure Standard is being exceeded.
Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is determined to fall into either Class C, D or E.
The Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is defined as:
OSF= Exposure Standard (TWA) ppm/ Odour Threshold Value (OTV) ppm
Classification into classes follows:

individuals are aware by
smell that the Exposure
Standard (TLV-TWA for
example) is being
reached, even when
distracted by working
activities
B 26-550 As "A" for 50-90% of
persons being distracted
C 1-26 As "A" for less than 50%
of persons being
distracted
D 0.18-1 10-50% of persons aware
of being tested perceive

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
gastrointestinal tract following ingestion.
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification
systems as "harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating
animal or human evidence. The material may still be damaging to the health of
the individual, following ingestion, especially where pre-existing organ (e.g
liver, kidney) damage is evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic
substances are generally based on doses producing mortality rather than those
producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). Gastrointestinal tract discomfort may
produce nausea and vomiting. In an occupational setting however, ingestion of
insignificant quantities is not thought to be cause for concern.
EYE
The material can produce chemical burns to the eye following direct contact.
Vapours or mists may be extremely irritating.
SKIN
The material can produce chemical burns following direct contact with the skin.
Skin contact is not thought to have harmful health effects (as classified under
EC Directives); the material may still produce health damage following entry
through wounds, lesions or abrasions.
Entry into the blood-stream, through, for example, cuts, abrasions or lesions,
may produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the
use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
INHALED
Inhalation of dusts, generated by the material during the course of normal
handling, may be damaging to the health of the individual.
Effects on lungs are significantly enhanced in the presence of respirable
particles. Overexposure to respirable dust may produce wheezing, coughing and
breathing difficulties leading to or symptomatic of impaired respiratory
function.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Repeated exposures, in an occupational setting, to high levels of fine- divided
dusts may produce a condition known as pneumoconiosis which is the lodgement of
any inhaled dusts in the lung irrespective of the effect. This is particularly
true when a significant number of particles less than 0.5 microns (1/50,000
inch), are present. Lung shadows are seen in the X-ray. Symptoms of
pneumoconiosis may include a progressive dry cough, shortness of breath on
exertion, increased chest expansion, weakness and weight loss. As the disease
progresses the cough produces a stringy mucous, vital capacity decreases further
and shortness of breath becomes more severe. Pneumoconiosis is the accumulation
of dusts in the lungs and the tissue reaction in its presence. It is further
classified as being of noncollagenous or collagenous types. Noncollagenous
pneumoconiosis, the benign form, is identified by minimal stromal reaction,
consists mainly of reticulin fibres, an intact alveolar architecture and is
potentially reversible. Limited evidence shows that inhalation of the material
is capable of inducing a sensitisation reaction in a significant number of
individuals at a greater frequency than would be expected from the response of a
normal population. Pulmonary sensitisation, resulting in hyperactive airway
dysfunction and pulmonary allergy may be accompanied by fatigue, malaise and
aching. Significant symptoms of exposure may persist for extended periods, even
after exposure ceases. Symptoms can be activated by a variety of nonspecific
environmental stimuli such as automobile exhaust, perfumes and passive smoking.
There exists limited evidence that shows that skin contact with the material is
capable either of inducing a sensitisation reaction in a significant number of
