SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. Call emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim

is not breathing.

Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Keep victim warm and quiet. Treat symptomatically and

supportively. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take

precautions to

protect themselves.

Skin contact: Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance,

immediately

flush skin with running water for at least 20 minutes. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Ensure

that

medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.

Eye contact: Move victim to fresh air. Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact

with substance,

immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. Keep victim warm and quiet. Treat

symptomatically and supportively. Effects of exposure to substance may be delayed. Ensure that

medical

personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.

Ingestion: If a person vomits place them in the recovery position so that vomit will not reenter the

mouth and throat.

Rinse mouth. Keep victim warm and quiet. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or

waistband. If

swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or label. Treat symptomatically

and

supportively. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take

precautions to

protect themselves. Effects of exposure (ingestion) to substance may be delayed.

Symptoms/effects:

Acute: No data available

Delayed: No data available

Immediate medical attention: If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Use first aid

treatment according to the nature of the

injury. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to

protect

themselves.

SECTION 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
