SECTION 4: First aid measures
Ingestion Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical
attention immediately. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Protection of first-aiders No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. It may be
dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
See Section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms.
Potential acute health effects
Inhalation Vapour inhalation under ambient conditions is not normally a problem due to low vapour
pressure.
Ingestion No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Skin contact Defatting to the skin. May cause skin dryness and irritation.
Eye contact No known significant effects or critical hazards. Not classified as an eye irritant. Based on data
available for this or related materials.
Delayed and immediate effects as well as chronic effects from short and long-term exposure
Inhalation Overexposure to the inhalation of airborne droplets or aerosols may cause irritation of the
respiratory tract.
Ingestion Ingestion of large quantities may cause nausea and diarrhoea.
Skin contact Prolonged or repeated contact can defat the skin and lead to irritation and/or dermatitis.
Eye contact Potential risk of transient stinging or redness if accidental eye contact occurs.
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes to physician Treatment should in general be symptomatic and directed to relieving any effects.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
Hygiene measures Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating,
smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Ensure that eyewash
stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Respiratory protection In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
For protection against metal working fluids, respiratory protection that is classified as “resistant
to oil” (class R) or oil proof (class P) should be selected where appropriate. Depending on the
level of airborne contaminants, an air-purifying, half-mask respirator (with HEPA filter) including
disposable (P- or R-series) (for oil mists less than 50mg/m3), or any powered, air-purifying
respirator equipped with hood or helmet and HEPA filter (for oil mists less than 125 mg/m3).
Where organic vapours are a potential hazard during metalworking operations, a combination
particulate and organic vapour filter may be necessary.
The correct choice of respiratory protection depends upon the chemicals being handled, the
conditions of work and use, and the condition of the respiratory equipment. Safety procedures
should be developed for each intended application. Respiratory protection equipment should
therefore be chosen in consultation with the supplier/manufacturer and with a full assessment
of the working conditions.
Eye/face protection Safety glasses with side shields.
Skin protection
Hand protection General Information:
Because specific work environments and material handling practices vary, safety procedures
should be developed for each intended application. The correct choice of protective gloves
depends upon the chemicals being handled, and the conditions of work and use. Most gloves
provide protection for only a limited time before they must be discarded and replaced (even the
best chemically resistant gloves will break down after repeated chemical exposures).
Gloves should be chosen in consultation with the supplier / manufacturer and taking account of
a full assessment of the working conditions.
Breakthrough time data are generated by glove manufacturers under laboratory test conditions
and represent how long a glove can be expected to provide effective permeation resistance. It
is important when following breakthrough time recommendations that actual workplace
conditions are taken into account. Always consult with your glove supplier for up-to-date
technical information on breakthrough times for the recommended glove type.
Our recommendations on the selection of gloves are as follows:
Continuous contact:
Gloves with a minimum breakthrough time of 240 minutes, or >480 minutes if suitable gloves
can be obtained.
If suitable gloves are not available to offer that level of protection, gloves with shorter
breakthrough times may be acceptable as long as appropriate glove maintenance and
replacement regimes are determined and adhered to.
Glove Thickness:
For general applications, we recommend gloves with a thickness typically greater than 0.35 mm.
It should be emphasised that glove thickness is not necessarily a good predictor of glove
resistance to a specific chemical, as the permeation efficiency of the glove will be dependent
on the exact composition of the glove material. Therefore, glove selection should also be based
on consideration of the task requirements and knowledge of breakthrough times.
Glove thickness may also vary depending on the glove manufacturer, the glove type and the
glove model. Therefore, the manufacturers’ technical data should always be taken into account
to ensure selection of the most appropriate glove for the task.
Note: Depending on the activity being conducted, gloves of varying thickness may be required
for specific tasks. For example:

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
• Thinner gloves (down to 0.1 mm or less) may be required where a high degree of manual
dexterity is needed. However, these gloves are only likely to give short duration protection and
would normally be just for single use applications, then disposed of.
• Thicker gloves (up to 3 mm or more) may be required where there is a mechanical (as well
as a chemical) risk i.e. where there is abrasion or puncture potential.
