Administrative data
First-aid measures
Eye contact
- rinse immediately with tap water for 10 minutes - open eyelids forcibly
- consult a physician
Skin contact
- remove immediately contaminated clothes, wash affected skin with water and soap - do not use any solvents
- consult a physician if skin irritation persists
Inhalation
- remove the casualty to fresh air and keep him/her calm
- in the event of symptoms get medical treatment
Note to physician
- treat symptomatically
- after accidental exposure women should get medical advice from a physician
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
- water spray jet, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable extinguishing media
- full water jet
Specific hazards
- very high probability of ignition of dust whirled up
- substance is hazardous for water: contain fire-fighting wastewater
Protection of fire-fighters
- precipitate gases/vapours/mists with water spray
- use self-contained breathing apparatus
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
- ensure adequate ventilation
- keep away sources of ignition
Environmental protection
- do not allow to enter drains or waterways
- if the substance reaches waters or the sewer system, inform the competent authority
Methods for cleaning up
- collect solids (avoid dust formation) and hand over to waste removal
