Description of first aid measures
General notes Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Self-protection of the first aider. 
Inhalation Provide fresh air. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
Skin contact After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Immediate medical treatment required because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure.
Eye contact In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist. Protect uninjured eye. 
Ingestion Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of water. Rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Call a physician immediately. If swallowed danger of perforation of the esophagus and the stomach (strong corrosive effects). Call a doctor. 

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Corrosion, Vomiting, Risk of blindness, Gastric perforation, Risk of serious damage to eyes, Irritation, Cough, Dyspnoea  

Extinguishing media                                      
Suitable extinguishing media Co-ordinate firefighting measures to the fire surroundings! water, foam, alcohol resistant foam, dry extinguishing powder, ABC-powder

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Combustible. Vapours are heavier than air, spread along floors and form explosive mixtures with air.
Hazardous combustion products In case of fire may be liberated: Nitrogen oxides (NOx), Carbon monoxide (CO), Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
Advice for firefighters In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear full chemical protective clothing.
Personal precautions Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Do not breathe dust.
Environmental precautions Keep away from drains, surface and ground water. Retain contaminated washing water and dispose of it.

Exposure controls

Individual protection measures (personal protective equipment)

Eyes Use safety goggle with side protection. Wear face protection.
Skin Wear appropriate gloves to prevent skin exposure.
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 contact. Increased temperatures due to heated substances, body heat etc. and a reduction of the effective 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.
other protection measures Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended.
Respiratory protection Respiratory protection necessary at: Dust formation. Particulate filter device (EN 143). Type: A-P2 (combined filters against particles and organic gases and vapours, colour code: Brown/White).
