4. FIRST AID MEASURES
General Information : Not expected to be a health hazard when used under normal
conditions.
Inhalation : No treatment necessary under normal conditions of use. If
symptoms persist, obtain medical advice.
Skin Contact : Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with water
and follow by washing with soap if available. If persistent
irritation occurs, obtain medical attention. When using high
pressure equipment, injection of product under the skin can
occur. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be
sent immediately to a hospital. Do not wait for symptoms to
develop. Obtain medical attention even in the absence of
apparent wounds.
Eye Contact : Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent
irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.
Ingestion : In general no treatment is necessary unless large quantities
are swallowed, however, get medical advice.
Advice to Physician : Treat symptomatically. High pressure injection injuries require
prompt surgical intervention and possibly steroid therapy, to
minimise tissue damage and loss of function. Because entry
wounds are small and do not reflect the seriousness of the
underlying damage, surgical exploration to determine the
extent of involvement may be necessary. Local anaesthetics or
hot soaks should be avoided because they can contribute to
swelling, vasospasm and ischaemia. Prompt surgical
decompression, debridement and evacuation of foreign
material should be performed under general anaesthetics, and
wide exploration is essential.

hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a
non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.
For continuous contact we recommend gloves with
breakthrough time of more than 240 minutes with preference
for > 480 minutes where suitable gloves can be identified. For
short-term/splash protection we recommend the same, but
recognise that suitable gloves offering this level of protection
may not be available and in this case a lower breakthrough
time may be acceptable so long as appropriate maintenance
and replacement regimes are followed. Glove thickness is not
a good predictor of glove resistance to a chemical as it is
dependent on the exact composition of the glove material.
Body protection : Skin protection not ordinarily required beyond standard issue
work clothes.
Respiratory Protection : No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal
conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene
practices, precautions should be taken to avoid breathing of
material. If engineering controls do not maintain airborne
concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker
health, select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the
