SKIN ■ If skin contact occurs: • Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear. • Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). • Seek medical attention in event of irritation. INHALED • If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area. • Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested. • Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. • Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. • Transport to hospital, or doctor. • Inhalation of vapours or aerosols (mists, fumes) may cause lung oedema. • Corrosive substances may cause lung damage (e.g. lung oedema, fluid in the lungs). • As this reaction may be delayed up to 24 hours after exposure, affected individuals need complete rest (preferably in semi-recumbent posture) and must be kept under medical observation even if no symptoms are (yet) manifested. • Before any such manifestation, the administration of a spray containing a dexamethasone derivative or beclomethasone derivative may be considered. This must definitely be left to a doctor or person authorised by him/her. (ICSC13719). NOTES TO PHYSICIAN ■ Treat symptomatically. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate spray, by a doctor or a person authorised by him/her should be considered. (ICSC24419/24421. Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES EXTINGUISHING MEDIA • Foam. • Dry chemical powder. • BCF (where regulations permit). • Carbon dioxide. • Water spray or fog - Large fires only. FIRE FIGHTING • Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. • May be violently or explosively reactive. • Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus. • Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course. • Consider evacuation (or protect in place). continued...

FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD • Highly flammable. • Severe hazard when exposed to heat, flame or oxidizers. • Acids may react with metals to produce hydrogen, a highly flammable and explosive gas. • Vapour may travel a considerable distance to source of ignition. • Heating may cause expansion or decomposition leading to violent rupture of rigid containers. • May emit acrid, poisonous or corrosive fumes. Combustion products include: carbon dioxide (CO2), other pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material. FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY • Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result. HAZCHEM: 3WE Personal Protective Equipment Gas tight chemical resistant suit. Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES MINOR SPILLS • Remove all ignition sources. • Clean up all spills immediately. • Avoid breathing vapours and contact with skin and eyes. • Control personal contact by using protective equipment. • Contain and absorb small quantities with vermiculite or other absorbent material. • Wipe up. • Collect residues in a flammable waste container. MAJOR SPILLS • Clear area of personnel and move upwind. • Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. • May be violently or explosively reactive. • Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus. • Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course. • Consider evacuation (or protect in place). • No smoking, naked lights or ignition sources. • Increase ventilation. • Stop leak if safe to do so. • Water spray or fog may be used to disperse vapour. • Contain or absorb spill with sand, earth or vermiculite. • Use only spark-free shovels and explosion proof equipment. • Collect recoverable product into labelled containers for recycling. • Collect solid residues and seal in labelled drums for disposal. • Wash area and prevent runoff into drains. • After clean up operations, decontaminate and launder all protective clothing and equipment before storing and re-using. continued...
