First Aid Measures
General adviceImmediate medical attention is required.
Eye contact
Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Immediate medical attention is required. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Do not ru affected area.
Skin Contact
Immediate medical attention is required. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and shoes.
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Ingestion
Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Drink plenty of water. Immediate medical attention is required. Remove from exposure, lie down.
Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Self-protection of the first aider
Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
SymptomsNo information available.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Note to physiciansProduct is a corrosive material. Use of gastric lavage or emesis is contraindicated.
Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should be investigated. Do not give chemical antidotes. Asphyxia from glottal edema may occur. Marked decrease in blood pressure may occur with moist rales, frothy sputum, and high pulse pressure. Treat symptomatically.

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautionsUse personal protective equipment as required. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautionsDo not allow into any sewer, on the ground or into any body of water. Should not be released into the environment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains. See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containmentPrevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Cover powder spill with plastic sheet or tarp to minimize spreading. Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.
Methods for cleaning up
Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Soak up with inert absorbent material. Take up mechanically, placing in appropriate containers for disposal. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Prevent product from entering drains. Dam up. After cleaning, flush away traces with water.
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handlingAvoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Use personal protective equipment as required.
Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Use only with adequate ventilation and in closed systems.

Skin and Body Protection
Wear protective gloves and protective clothing.
Respiratory protection
If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection should be worn. Positive-pressure supplied air respirators may be required for high airborne contaminant concentrations. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with current local regulations.
General Hygiene Considerations
When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing is recommended. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Take off all contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
