General notes
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Self-protection of the first aider.
Following inhalation
Provide fresh air. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
Following skin contact
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Immediate medical treatment re-
quired because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure.
Following eye contact
In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes hold-
ing eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist. Protect uninjured eye.
Following ingestion
Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of water. Call a physician immediately. If swallowed
danger of perforation of the esophagus and the stomach (strong corrosive effects).

8.2 Exposure controls


Individual protection measures (personal protective equipment)
Eye/face protection

Use safety goggle with side protection. Wear face protection.


Skin protection

• hand protection
Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374.
Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. For special purposes, it is recommended to check
the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of
these gloves. The times are approximate values from measurements at 22 ° C and permanent con-
tact. Increased temperatures due to heated substances, body heat etc. and a reduction of the effect-
ive layer thickness by stretching can lead to a considerable reduction of the breakthrough time. If in
doubt, contact manufacturer. At an approx. 1.5 times larger / smaller layer thickness, the respective
breakthrough time is doubled / halved. The data apply only to the pure substance. When transferred
to substance mixtures, they may only be considered as a guide.
