* * *Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES* * * 4.1 Description of First Aid Measures Inhalation If adverse effects occur, remove to uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Get immediate medical attention. Skin Wash skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get immediate medical attention. Thoroughly clean and dry contaminated clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes. Eyes Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Then get immediate medical attention. Ingestion If swallowed, drink plenty of water, do NOT induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention. 4.2 Most Important Symptoms and Effects, both Acute and Delayed Acute harmful if swallowed, skin burns, eye burns Delayed no information on significant adverse effects 4.3 Indication of any Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment Needed Note to Physicians For inhalation, consider oxygen. Development of pulmonary edema may be delayed 48-72 hours. Avoid gastric lavage or emesis. Antidote sodium sulfate solution, oral, gastric tube; potassium. * * *Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES* * * See Section 9 for Flammability Properties 5.1 Extinguishing Media regular dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water, regular foam Large fires: Use regular foam or flood with fine water spray. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media high-pressure water streams 5.2 Special Hazards Arising from the Substance or Mixture Negligible fire hazard. 5.3 Advice for Firefighters Fire Fighting Measures Move container from fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers with water spray until well after the fire is out. Stay away from the ends of tanks. Use extinguishing agents appropriate for surrounding fire. Do not get water directly on material. Large fires: Flood with fine water spray. Reduce vapors with water spray. Cool containers with water spray until well after the fire is out. Apply water from a protected location or from a safe distance. Avoid inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and keep out of low areas. Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters Wear full protective fire fighting gear including self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) for protection against possible exposure.
