4. First-Aid Measures

General advice:
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.

If inhaled:
If difficulties occur after dust has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and seek medical attention.

On skin contact:
Burns caused by molten material require hospital treatment.

On contact with eyes:

In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with plenty of water. If
irritation develops, seek medical attention.

On ingestion:
Rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water. If difficulties occur: Seek medical attention.

Note to physician:
Symptoms: (Further) symptoms and / or effects are not known so far
Hazards: No hazard is expected under intended use and appropriate handling.
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific
antidote.

5. Fire-Fighting Measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
water spray, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide

Specific hazards:
At temperatures of > 320 °C can be emitted: ammonia, aqueous solution, carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide, caprolactam, hydrogen cyanide, nitriles
Under special fire conditions traces of other toxic substances are possible. Formation of further
decomposition and oxidation products depends upon the fire conditions.

Special protective equipment:

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
