4. FIRST AID MEASURES
INHALATION: Remove from exposure area to fresh air.
SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash affected area with
soap or mild detergent. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention.
INGESTION: Get medical attention.
Emergency and First Aid
Procedures:
Due to irritant properties, resulting from heat created as solid aterial dissolves in water,
swallowing may result in burns/ulceration of mucus membranes. If burn is present, treat
as any thermal burn, after decontamination. No specific antidote. Treatment of exposure
should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient.
Note to Physician:
Acute Symptoms/Effects: Listed below.
Inhalation (Breathing): Inhaling dust may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract (nose
and throat). Nasal mucosal and oropharyngeal eythema.
Skin: Skin Irritation. Direct abrasion of skin from solid, erythema and burn from reaction
with water. Prolonged contact and occlusion may cause more severe symptoms.
Damage is localized to contact areas.
Eye: Eye Irritation. Direct abrasion of cornea from solid, erythema and burn from reaction
with water, conjunctival swelling and cornea opacification from hypertonic solution and
heat. Corneal eye pain, redness, acute corneal thickening or whitening.
Ingestion (Swallowing): Consumption of solids or hypertonic solutions causes nausea,
vomiting, and increased thirst.
Delayed Symptoms/Effects:
- Chronic exposures to skin and mucus membranes that cause irritation may cause a
chronic dermatitis or mucosal membrane problem

Exposure:
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Pt:
No data.
Neglibile fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Apply cooling water to sides of

agent suitable for type of surrounding fire and/or chemicals. Do not sure water directly
on the material. Avoid breathing corrosive vapors; keep upwind. Dike area to prevent
runoff and contamination of water sources.
