4.First-aid measures
4.1 Description of necessary first-aid measures
General advice
Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If inhaled
Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. See Notes.
In case of skin contact
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention .
In case of eye contact
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
If swallowed
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Give nothing to drink. Refer for medical attention .
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Similar to other silanes. Toxicity is rated high for inhalation, ingestion and local irritation. May cause death or permanent injury after a very short exposure to small quantities. (EPA, 1998)
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
No specific antidote is available /for chlorosilanes/, but first aid treatment consists of copious irrigation with water, & subsequent treatment is as for chemical burns in general. /Chlorosilanes/
5.Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Aqueous film forming foam (AFFF), carbon dioxide, dry sand, special powder. NO hydrous agents. NO water.
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Violent reaction with water. Toxic and irritating hydrogen chloride and phosgene may be formed in fires. Difficult to extinguish, re-ignition may occur. Flashback along vapor trail may occur. Containers may explode in fire. Vapor may explode if ignited in enclosed area. When heated to decomposition or on contact with acids or acid fumes, chloride fumes are emitted. Reacts with surface moisture, releasing hydrogen chloride, which will corrode common metals and form flammable hydrogen gas. Avoid contact with water; it readily hydrolyzes, liberating hydrochloric acid. Hazardous polymerization may not occur. (EPA, 1998)
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
6.Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid breathing dust. For personal protection see section 8.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable dry non-plastic containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in dry sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Shut off ignition sources. Call fire department. Avoid contact with liquid. Keep people away. Stop discharge if possible. Isolate and remove discharged material. Notify local health and pollution control agencies.
7.Handling and storage
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. For precautions see section 2.2.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Fireproof. Separated from food and feedstuffs and other compounds. Cool. Dry. Well closed.Storage temperature; ambient.
