3. FIRST AID MEASURES
General information:
- Seek medical attention immediately.
- Remove any clothing soiled by the product. Remove the breathing apparatus only after contaminated clothing has been completely removed.
- In case of irregular breathing or respiratory arrest provide artificial respiration.
After inhalation:
- Supply fresh air or oxygen.
- In case of unconsciousness, place the patient stably inside a position for transportation.
After skin contact: Immediately wash with water and soap, and rinse thoroughly.
After eye contact: Rinse eyes for several minutes under running water.
After swallowing: Do not induce vomiting.
4. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Suitable extinguishing agents:
- CO2, extinguishing powder, or water spray.
- Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol-resistant foam.
Advice for Firefighters
Protective equipment: Mouth respiratory protective device.
5. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Release Measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Not required.
Environmental precautions: Do not allow to enter sewers, surface, or groundwater.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
- Dispose of contaminated material as waste according to Section 13.
- Ensure adequate ventilation.
6. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Precautions for safe handling:
- Thorough dedusting.
- Ensure good ventilation and exhaustion at the workplace.
- Open and handle the receptacle with care.
Information about protection against explosions and fires: Keep respiratory protective devices available.
Storage: Keep the receptacle tightly sealed.
7. EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION
Control Parameters
Components with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: Not required.
Additional information: The lists that were valid during the creation were used as a basis.37.0
Exposure Controls
At any detectable concentration: Any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.
Any supplied-air respirator with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode or other positive-pressure mode with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.
Escape – any air-purifying, full-facepiece respirator with a high-efficiency particulate filler.
Any appropriate escape-type, self-contained breathing apparatus.
General protective and hygienic measures:
- Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages, and feed.
- Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
- Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
- Store protective clothing separately.
Breathing equipment: In case of brief exposure or low pollution use a respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use a respiratory protective device that is independent of circulating air.
Protection of hands: The glove material must be impermeable and resistant to the product, the substance, and the preparation. Due to missing tests, no recommendation for the glove material can be given for the product, the preparation, and the chemical mixture. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion, and the degradation
The selection of appropriate gloves depends on the material, while the quality standards may vary among manufacturers.
Penetration time of glove material: The exact break-through time must be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and must be observed.
Eye protection: Not required.
Clothing: Employees handling radioactive substances should wear disposable overgarments, including head and foot coverings. These garments are also recommended even if the employee uses a “glove box” containment system. Certain clothing fibers may be useful in dosimetry so clothing should be kept.
Firefighting and Other Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health Conditions
Use any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece respirator and a high-efficiency particulate filter.
Use any supplied air respirator with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode or other positive-pressure modes with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand or other positive-pressure modes.
