Inhalation: Move exposed person to fresh air; seek medical attention if breathing becomes difficult; provide oxygen if directed by healthcare provider
Skin Contact: Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes; remove contaminated clothing; wash affected area with mild soap; consult doctor if irritation develops
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes; remove contact lenses if present and easy to do; continue rinsing; medical evaluation is strongly advised
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water; do not induce vomiting; never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person; immediate medical help is crucial
Most Important Symptoms/Effects: Burning sensation, coughing, difficulty breathing, headache, nausea, irritation of skin and eyes
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or foam
Specific Hazards: Releases toxic and irritating gases such as hydrogen chloride and nitrogen oxides upon combustion
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective fire-resistant clothing
Special Procedures: Avoid direct contact with substance; keep containers cool with water spray to prevent rupture; control runoff to minimize environmental exposure
Personal Precautions: Evacuate area, ventilate adequately, ensure use of PPE (gloves, goggles, respirator)
Environmental Precautions: Prevent contamination of soil, drains, sewers, and waterways; notify environmental authority if large releases occur
Clean-up Methods: Absorb with inert material (dry sand, earth); sweep or scoop into properly labeled chemical-waste container; complete clean-up with detergent and water, do not reuse contaminated absorbent
Handling: Keep tightly closed in original packaging; avoid generation of dust or aerosols; use only in environments with good ventilation; prevent contact with skin, eyes, and clothing
Storage: Store at ambient temperature in a dry, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials (strong acids, oxidizers); keep away from direct sunlight and moisture; containers must be clearly labeled and checked regularly for leaks or signs of damage
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation or chemical fume hood to minimize airborne exposure
Exposure Limits: No specific occupational exposure limits set; general exposure to similar chlorinated compounds should be minimized
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, neoprene), tightly fitting safety goggles, long-sleeved lab coat, adequate respiratory protection in cases of inadequate ventilation
