First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air. If not breathing give
artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse immediately with large quantities of water for at
least 15 minutes and seek medical advice. Symptoms should be
treated as for other organo-halide materials.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and immediately wash skin with
soap and water. If signs of discomfort develop, seek medical
advice. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Drink plenty of water and seek medical advice. Do not induce
vomiting as bromine compounds are potentially damaging to
the lungs.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, chemical foam, carbon dioxide or dry powder may
be used. Do not use water jet.
Product arising from burning: Products of combustion may contain oxides of carbon,
hydrogen bromide and bromine. Incomplete combustion will
lead to the formation of organo-bromine derivatives and
soot.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: A self-contained breathing apparatus with complete skin
cover should be worn.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Wear suitable protective clothing (see 2.3.1).
Contain the area of spillage and absorb onto sand or other
absorbant materials for transfer to closed, labelled
containers. Dispose of the used absorbant material as
hazardous waste by incineration at a suitable facility in
accordance with local regulations. Ventilate and thoroughly
wash area of spill with large quantities of water.
Contamination of ponds or waterways must be avoided.
Non-emergency personnel should be kept away from the area of
the spill.
Handling and storage
Handling: Ensure adequate ventilation, use local exhaust ventilation
if appropriate. Rubber gloves, goggles/face protection and
coveralls should be worn. If ventilation is adequate, wear
an approved respirator. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Storage: Store under ambient conditions in tightly closed containers
away from food or feed stuffs. Store away from strong
oxidising or reducing agents and acids/bases in a cool, dry
place. The substance is not considered to be volatile but
maintain good ventilation and avoid build up of fumes.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 25 or 50 kg laquered drums.
