First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air, keep comfortable for breathing, seek medical advice if symptoms persist
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, rinse skin well with water, consult a physician for visible irritation or allergic reaction
Eye Contact: Rinse thoroughly with clean water for at least 15 minutes, keep eyelids open, seek immediate medical help if discomfort continues
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth out, provide small amounts of water if conscious, seek emergency treatment
Most Important Symptoms: Redness, rash, or burning sensation on the skin; irritation in eyes, throat, or mouth

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Media: Direct water jets, due to splash risk

Personal Precautions: Evacuate non-essential personnel, ventilate area, avoid contact with skin, eyes, or inhalation of vapors
Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves, goggles or face shield, protective apron
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, or soil
Cleanup Methods: Absorb spill with inert material (sand, earth), collect residue in tightly closed containers, wash contaminated surfaces with water and mild detergent, ventilate area
Disposal: Follow regional hazardous waste disposal guidelines

Handling and Storage

Handling: Use within fume hood or well-ventilated place, wear appropriate personal protection, wash hands after handling, refrain from eating or drinking in working area
