EXPLOSION

In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
 
EXPOSURE
PREVENT GENERATION OF MISTS!

INHALATION
Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection.
Fresh air, rest.
SKIN
Protective gloves.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
EYES
Safety goggles.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
