4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Ingestion
If conscious wash out mouth with water. Seek medical advice. Show this SDS to medical practitioner.
Inhalation
Remove from contaminated air. Maintain breathing with artificial respiration if necessary. Seek medical assistance. Show this SDS to a doctor.
Skin Contact
Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately wash skin thoroughly with water and mild soap. Seek medical advice if irritation persists. Show this SDS to medical practitioner. Launder clothing before reuse.
Eye Contact
Immediately hold eyelids open and flood with water for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical aid. Show this SDS to medical practitioner.
Other Information
No further relevant information available.
5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing equipment
Water spray. Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, or appropriate foam.
HAZCHEM
Hydrochloric acid and its solutions will not burn or support combustion. However contact with aluminium, zinc or tin may generate explosive hydrogen gas. Decomposition products include hydrogen chloride.
Special protective equipment and precautions for fire fighters
Fire fighters and others who may be exposed to combustion products during fire should wear full protective clothing including positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Wear SCBA with full face-piece, operated in positive pressure mode when fighting fires.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Restrict access to area. Ventilate area. Remove chemicals that can react with the spilled material.
Environmental precautions
Prevent from entering waterways.
Methods and materials for containment and clean up
Use inert material such as sand or earth to contain spill or leak. Neutralise with sodium bicarbonate. Absorb spills with chemical absorber or vermiculite and dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure.
Conditions for safe storage
Store sealed in original container in a cool well ventilated situation away from foods and other chemicals. Do not store in direct sunlight. Observe good hygiene and housekeeping practices.
