SECTION 4 First aid measures
4.1. Description of first aid measures
General:
If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid proc edures.
Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
Transport to hospital, or doctor.
Immediately give a glass of water.
First aid is not generally required. If in doubt, contact a Poisons Information Centre or
a doctor. If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifti ng the upper and lower lids.
Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel. Treat symptomatically. If skin or hair contact occurs:
Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if
available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation.

Before entry to such areas, sampling and test procedures for low oxygen levels should be undertaken; control conditions should be established to ensure the
availability of adequate oxygen supply.
Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation.
Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs.
Fire and explosion protection
See section 5
Other information
Carbon and charcoal may be stabilised for storage and transport, without moistening, by treatment with hot air at 50 deg. C..Use of oxygen-impermeable bags to limit
oxygen and moisture uptake has been proposed. Surface contamination with oxygenated volatiles may generate a heat of reaction (spontaneous he ating).

Note: Wet, activated carbon removes oxygen from the air and thus presents a severe hazard to workers inside carbon vessels an d enclosed or confined spaces. Before
entering such areas sampling and test procedures for low oxygen levels should be undertaken and control conditions set up to ensure ample oxygen availability.[Linde]
Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. W ell-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in
protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.

11.1. Information on toxicological effects
Inhaled:
Limited evidence or practical experience suggests that the material may produce irritation of the respiratory system, in a significant number of individuals, following inhalation. In contrast to
most organs, the lung is able to respond to a chemical insult by first removing or neutralising the irritant and then repairing the damage. The repair process, which initially evolved to
protect mammalian lungs from foreign matter and antigens, may however, produce further lung damage resulting in the impairment of gas exchange, the primary function of the lungs.
Respiratory tract irritation often results in an inflammatory response involving the recruitment and activation of many celltypes, mainly derived from the vascular system.
Ingestion:
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as "harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating animal or
human evidence. The material may still be damaging to the health of the individual, following ingestion, especially where pre
-existing organ (e.g liver, kidney) damage is
evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing mortality rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health).
Skin Contact:
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good
hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting.
Repeated exposure may cause skin cracking, flaking or drying following normal handling and use.Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should notbe exposed to this
material Entry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may produce systemic injury with harmful effects.
Eye:
Limited evidence exists, or practical experience suggests, that the material may cause eye irritation in a substantial numberof individuals and/or is expected to produce significant ocular
lesions which are present twenty-four hours or more after instillation into the eye(s) of experimental animals. Repeated or prolonged eye contact may cause inflammation characterised by
temporary redness (similar to windburn) of the conjunctiva (conjunctivitis); temporary impairment of vision and/or other transient eye damage/ulceration may occur.
Symptoms of exposure by the eye to carbon particulates include irritation and a burning sensation. Following an industrial ex
plosion, fine particles become embedded in the
cornea and conjunctiva resulting in an inflammation which persisted for 2-3 weeks.
Chronic:
On the basis, primarily, of animal experiments, concern has been expressed that the material may produce carcinogenic or muta
genic effects; in respect of the available
information, however, there presently exists inadequate data for making a satisfactory assessment.
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause drying with cracking, irritation and possible dermatitis following.
Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce cumulative health effects involving organs or biochemical
systems. Chronic inhalation exposure of production workers has caused decreased pulmonary function ad myocardial dystrophy.

Classification of the preparation and its individual components has drawn on official and authoritative sources as well as in
dependent review by the Chemwatch
Classification committee using available literature references.
A list of reference resources used to assist the committee may be
found at: www.chemwatch.net/references
The (M)SDS is a Hazard Communication tool and should be used to assist in the Risk Assessment. Many factors determine whether the reported Hazards are Risks in the workplace
or other settings. Risks may be determined by reference to Exposures Scenarios. Scale of use, frequency of use and current oravailable engineering controls must be considered.
For detailed advice on Personal Protective Equipment, refer to the following EU CEN Standards:
EN 16 Personal eye-protection
EN 340 Protective clothing
EN 374 Protective gloves against chemicals and micro-organisms
