First Aid Measures

Eye Contact: Rinse immediately with gentle stream of water for at least 15 minutes; remove contact lenses if present and easy; seek medical advice if irritation persists
Skin Contact: Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water; remove contaminated clothing and shoes; continue to rinse if irritation noted
Inhalation: Move to area with fresh air; if breathing becomes difficult, seek immediate medical assistance; provide oxygen or artificial respiration as necessary
Ingestion: Rinse mouth; do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel; seek medical attention for symptoms such as nausea or abdominal discomfort
Most Important Symptoms: Irritation, redness, or itching at contact site; rare reports of allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
Special Treatment: Treat symptomatically based on clinical judgement and individual reactions

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray
Hazards from Combustion: Emits nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide when burned
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes
Fire Response: Prevent runoff from entering drains or watercourses; cool fire-exposed containers with water spray
Explosion Data: No explosion hazard reported under normal conditions

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Evacuate unnecessary personnel, wear suitable protective clothing including dust mask, gloves, goggles
Spill Response: Sweep up solid material carefully to avoid creating dust, collect and place in labeled waste container
