Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

General advice:

Under the shower: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing (including shoes).

Inhalation:

Inhalation of vapours/mists : Move patient from contaminated area to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Keep under medical

surveillance. Hospitalize immediately

.

Skin contact:

Wash immediately, abundantly and thoroughly with water. Consult a doctor quickly. In case of extensive burns: Hospitalize immediately.

Eye contact:

Wash open eyes immediately, abundantly and thoroughly for at least 15 minutes. Consult an ophthalmologist immediately.

Ingestion:

Do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth and lips with plenty of water if the subject is conscious, then hospitalize.

Protection of first-aiders:

If entering a saturated atmosphere, wear a self contained breathing apparatus. Protective suit.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, Foam, Dry powder, Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:Flammable (when hot).

Thermal decomposition giving toxic products:, Ammonia, Carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides (NOx)

Advice for firefighters:Specific methods:

Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Ensure containers can be rapidly moved. In case of fire nearby, remove exposed containers.Prohibit all sources of sparks and ignition - Do not smoke.

Special protective actions for fire-fighters:

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Complete suit protecting against chemicals.
