First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Pay attention to self-protection.
Remove victims from hazardous area. Immediately remove soiled or soaked clothing and remove it to a safe distance. Keep victim warm, in a stabilized position and covered.
Do not leave victims unattended.
If the casualty is unconscious: Place the victim in the recovery position.
Skin contact
Wash off affected area immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.
Eye contact
With eye held open, thoroughly rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.
In case of persistent discomfort: Consult an ophthalmologist.
Ingestion
Rinse mouth.
Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.
Obtain medical attention.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms
None known
Hazards
Other dangerous properties can not be excluded
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
This substance does not have any noteworthy noxious potential. Damage to health is thus not expected.
Fire-fighting measures

Hazardous fumes in fires, specific to the product:
hydrochloric acid
Under certain fire conditions, traces of other toxic products may occur
Advice for firefighters
Water for fire fighting must not be introduced in the sewer system, subsoil, or surface waters. Assure that there are sufficient fire water retaining facilities Contaminated fire fighting water must be disposed of in conformity with the regulations of the local authorities.
Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with the regulations.
In case of fire use self-contained breathing apparatus if necessary.
Wear suitable protective clothing.
full protective suit
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Wear personal protective equipment
