Note
Note 1: The concentration stated or, in the absence of such concentrations, the generic concentrations of this Regulation (Table
3.1) or the generic concentrations of Directive 1999/45/EC (Table 3.2), are the percentages by weight of the metallic element
calculated with reference to the total weight of the mixture.
Eye Contact In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical
advice.
Skin Contact Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Immediate medical
attention is required.
Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Inhalation Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Do not use mouth-to-mouth
method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a
pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
Immediate medical attention is required.
Self-Protection of the First Aider Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, take precautions to
protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination.
Causes burns by all exposure routes. Ingestion causes severe swelling, severe damage to
the delicate tissue and danger of perforation. Product is a corrosive material. Use of gastric
lavage or emesis is contraindicated. Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should
be investigated.
Extinguishing media
Suitable Extinguishing Media
CO 2, dry chemical, dry sand, alcohol-resistant foam.

equipment changes to minimise release or contact, and the use of properly designed ventilation systems, should be adopted to
control hazardous materials at source
Personal protective equipment Use only those certified by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Respiratory Protection When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use
appropriate certified respirators
Recommended Filter type: Particulates filter conforming to EN 143
To protect the wearer, respiratory protective equipment must be the correct fit and be used
and maintained properly
When RPE is used a face piece Fit Test should be conducted
Hygiene Measures Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice
Environmental exposure controls Prevent product from entering drains Do not allow material to contaminate ground water
