Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Emergency measures?
When you may be exposed to its dust, you should wear a gas mask. Wear chemical safety goggles and work clothes made of anti-corrosion materials. Wear rubber gloves. After work, take a shower and change clothes. Store poison-contaminated clothing separately and wash before reuse.
Skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing, rinse with running water for 15 minutes. In case of burns, seek medical attention.
Eye contact: Immediately lift the eyelids and rinse with running water or saline for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
Inhalation: Get away from the scene to fresh air. Give oxygen if breathing is difficult. Once breathing stops, begin CPR immediately. Seek medical attention.
Ingestion: If swallowed by mistake, rinse mouth immediately and drink milk or egg white. Seek medical attention.
Extinguishing methods: foam, sand, carbon dioxide. Do not use water.
Emergency measures for leakage:
Isolate the leaking contaminated area, set up warning signs around it, and cut off the fire source. It is recommended that emergency personnel wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. Do not directly touch the leaked substance, and it is forbidden to spray water directly on the leaked substance, let alone let water enter the packaging container. Mix it with sand, dry lime or soda ash to avoid raising dust, collect it with non-sparking tools and transport it to a waste disposal site for disposal. If there is a large amount of leakage, cover it with plastic sheeting or canvas, and contact the relevant technical department to determine the removal method.
