TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE | Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. | NO open flames. | Use powder, carbon dioxide. NO hydrous agents. NO water. |
| EXPLOSION | In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. NO direct contact with water. | ||
| EXPOSURE | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | ||
| Inhalation | Sore throat. Cough. Burning sensation. Shortness of breath. Laboured breathing. Symptoms may be delayed. See Notes. | Use ventilation, local exhaust or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. |
| Skin | Pain. Redness. Blisters. Skin burns. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention . |
| Eyes | Pain. Redness. Severe deep burns. Loss of vision. | Wear face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. | First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention. |
| Ingestion | Burning sensation. Abdominal pain. Shock or collapse. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. | Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention . |

| NOTES |
|
Reacts violently with fire extinguishing agents such as water. The occupational exposure limit value should not be exceeded during any part of the working exposure. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate spray, by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. Card has been partially updated in November 2008: see Occupational Exposure Limits, EU Classification, Packaging & labelling. |
