15.1.3.5 Fire-fighting measures
15.1.3.6 Measures after unintended release
Inhalation:
Take affected person into fresh air. Consult a doctor if symp-
toms persist.
Ingestion:
Rinse out mouth with water and drink plenty of water after-
wards. Consult a doctor immediately.
Symptomatic treatment. After ingestion, the stomach must be
pumped out under medical supervision using a stomach tube.
Notes to physician:
Treatment should in general be symptomic and directed at
relieving any effects.
Note regarding high-pressure applications
Injection into the skin due to contact with a product under high
pressure constitutes a major medical emergency. Within a few
hours the tissue swells up and becomes discolored and
extremely painful, with severe subcutaneous necrosis.
Surgical treatment is absolutely imperative. Comprehensive
opening of the wound and the tissue beneath it is necessary in
order to reduce tissue loss and to prevent or limit lasting dam-
age. The high pressure can cause the product to penetrate
extensive areas of tissue layers.
Suitable extinguishing
agents:
In the event of a fire: use water spray (mist), foam, dry chemi-
cals or CO2.
Unsuitable extinguishing
agents:
Do not use water jets.
Special instructions for
extinguishing work:
Contaminated extinguishing water must be collected separately
and prevented from entering the drainage system.
Hazardous decomposition
products:
Decomposition products include various oxides (e.g. carbon
oxides).
Unusual fire/explosion
hazards:
-
Special fire-fighting
measures:
Use self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear full protective
equipment.
Protection of fire-fighters:
Fire-fighters must wear self-contained positive pressure breath-
ing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective gear.
Personal safety
precautions:
In case of spillage, isolate the hazard area. Avoid contact with
the hazardous substance and avoid inhaling vapors. Ensure
adequate ventilation. Where there is insufficient ventilation,
wear suitable respiratory equipment. Use suitable protective
equipment.
Environmental protection
measures:
Prevent the product from entering the drainage system, surface
waters and soil. Notify the competent authorities, if required.
