Eye Contact : Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately
flush eyes with a copious amount of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water
may be used. Get medical attention if irritation occurs.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing Media
Suitable : SMALL FIRE: Use dry chemical powder or CO2.
LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam. Do not use water jet.
Unusual fire/explosion Hazards : Aqueous solutions are nonflammable. In a fire, the following can be released:
carbon oxides (CO, CO2)
Hazardous thermal (de)composition : These products are carbon oxides (CO, CO2) and water.
products
Protection of fire-fighters : Fire fighters should wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus
(SCBA) and full turnout gear.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal Precautions : Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapour respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self-contained
breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product.
Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist
