| First Aid Measures | Back to Contents | 【Ingestion】
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. | 【Inhalation】
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. Do not use mouth-to-mouth respiration if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. | 【Skin】
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes. | 【Eyes】
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed. Extensive irrigation is required (at least 30 minutes). |
| Handling and Storage | Back to Contents | 【Storage】
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Corrosives area. Keep containers tightly closed. | 【Handling】
Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Do not get on skin or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. Use with adequate ventilation. Use only in a chemical fume hood. Discard contaminated shoes. Do not breathe vapors. |
| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Inhalation】
Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. Inhalation may be fatal as a result of spasm, inflammation, edema of the larynx and bronchi, chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. May cause burning sensation, coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness of breath, headache, nausea, and vomiting. | 【Skin】
Causes skin burns. May cause skin rash (in milder cases), and cold and clammy skin with cyanosis or pale color. | 【Eyes】
Causes eye burns. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. | 【Ingestion】
May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause perforation of the digestive tract. May cause systemic effects. | 【Hazards】
Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. | 【EC Risk Phrase】

| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Flash Point】
97 | 【Fire Fighting】
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. To extinguish fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. | 【Fire Potential】
This chemical is combustible. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Wash area with soap and water. Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Absorb spill using an absorbent, non-combustible material such as earth, sand, or vermiculite. Provide ventilation. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Incompatibilities】
Oxidizing agents, reducing agents, bases. | 【Stability】
Stable under normal temperatures and pressures. | 【Decomposition】
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, acrid smoke and fumes. | 【Combustion Products】
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. |
