edit
First aid:
  1. one
    Inhalation: If inhaled, move the patient to fresh air.
  2. two
    Skin contact: Take off the contaminated clothes and wash the skin thoroughly with soapy water and clean water. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice.
  3. three
    Eye contact: separate the eyelids and wash them with flowing water or normal saline. Get medical attention immediately.
  4. four
    Ingestion: Rinse mouth, do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.
Advice for protecting rescuers:
  1. one
    Move the patient to a safe place. Consult a doctor. Show this chemical safety data sheet to the doctor on site.

Fire fighting measures

Announce
edit
Extinguishing agent:
  1. one
    Use water mist, dry powder, foam or carbon dioxide extinguishing agent to extinguish the fire.
  2. two
    Avoid using direct water to extinguish the fire. Direct water may cause splashing of flammable liquid and spread the fire.
Precautions and protective measures for fire fighting:
  1. one
    Firefighters must wear breathing apparatus and full body fire-fighting clothes to extinguish the fire in the upwind direction.
  2. two
    Move the container from the fire site to an open place as far as possible.
  3. three
    If the container in the fire site has changed color or sounds from the safety relief device, it must be evacuated immediately.
  4. four
    Isolate the accident site and prohibit irrelevant personnel from entering. Receive and treat fire water to prevent environmental pollution.

Leakage emergency treatment

Announce
edit
Protective measures, protective equipment and emergency response procedures for operators:
  1. one
    It is recommended that emergency treatment personnel wear gas breathing apparatus, anti-static clothing and rubber oil resistant gloves.
  2. two
    Do not touch or cross the leakage.
  3. three
    All equipment used in operation shall be grounded.
  4. four
    Cut off the leakage source as much as possible.
  5. five
    Eliminate all ignition sources.
  6. six
    The warning area shall be demarcated according to the influence area of liquid flow, steam or dust diffusion, and irrelevant personnel shall evacuate from crosswind and upwind to the safety area.
Environmental protection measures:
  1. one
    Collect leakage to avoid environmental pollution. Prevent leakage into sewers, surface water and groundwater.
  2. two
    The method of receiving and removing leaked chemicals and the disposal materials used: small amount of leakage: the leaked liquid shall be collected in airtight containers as far as possible. Absorb with sand, activated carbon or other inert materials and transfer to a safe place. Do not flush into the sewer. Large amount of leakage: build a dike or dig a pit to receive. Close the drainage pipe. Cover with foam to inhibit evaporation. Use explosion-proof pump to transfer to tank car or special collector for recycling or transport to waste disposal site.
