First Aid/
Fire Fighting
|
|
FIRE
|
Combustible.
Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.
|
NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking.
|
Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide.
|
|
Explosion
|
Above 62°C explosive vapour/air mixtures may be formed.
|
Above 62°C use a closed system, ventilation, and explosion-proof electrical equipment.
|
In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
Combat fire from a sheltered position.
|

|
|
Exposure
|
|
|
|
|
•Inhalation
|
Wheezing.
Burning sensation.
Cough.
Shortness of breath.
|
Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection.
|
Fresh air, rest.
Half-upright position.
Refer for medical attention.
|
|
•Skin
|
|
Protective gloves.
|
Remove contaminated clothes.
Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
|
|
•Eyes
|
Redness.
Pain.
|
Safety goggles
or
eye protection in combination with breathing protection.
|
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
|
|
•Ingestion
|
(See Inhalation).
|
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
Wash hands before eating.

Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: 2 ppm as TWA; (ACGIH 2004).
MAK: IIb (not established but data is available) (DFG 2004).
OSHA PEL: TWA 20 ppm (100 mg/m3)
NIOSH REL: TWA 2 ppm (10 mg/m3)
NIOSH IDLH: 100 ppm See: 600259
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation
and
by ingestion
.
Inhalation Risk:
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached rather quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
is severely irritating to
the eyes
and
the respiratory tract
.
Inhalation of of high concentrations of the vapour of this substance may cause lung oedema (see Notes).
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:

Environmental
Data

|
|
N O T E S
|
The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential.
Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.
