After inhalation: Supply fresh air; consult doctor in case of complaints. After skin contact: Immediately rinse with plenty of water. After eye contact: Rinse opened eye for several minutes (15 min) under running water. After swallowing: Rinse out mouth and then drink plenty of water. Seek medical treatment. The following symptoms may occur: after swallowing and inhalation: irritations 5 Fire fighting measures Suitable extinguishing agents: Use fire fighting measures that suit the environment. Special hazards caused by the material, its products of combustion or resulting gases: Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire. Sulfur oxides (SOx) Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device. Additional information Dispose of fire debris and contaminated fire fighting water in accordance with official regulations. Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter the sewage system. 6 Accidental release measures Person-related safety precautions: Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away. Measures for environmental protection: Do not allow product to reach sewage system or any water course. Measures for cleaning/collecting: Dispose contaminated material as waste according to item 13.
