Folding first aid measures

Inhalation: quickly get out of the scene to the fresh air. Keep the respiratory tract open. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing stops, do artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical treatment.

Folding fire protection measures

Dangerous characteristics: in the event of high heat, the internal pressure of the vessel increases, there is a risk of cracking and explosion.

Hazardous combustion products:sulfur oxide and hydrogen fluoride.

Fire-extinguishing method: The product is non-combustible. Cut off the air supply. Spray water to cool the container and, if possible, move the container from the fire field to the open position.

Folding leakage emergency treatment

Emergency treatment: quickly evacuate the personnel of the leaking pollution area to the upper hand and conduct the isolation, and strictly limit the access. It is recommended that the emergency treatment personnel wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and wear general working clothes. Cut off the source of leakage as much as possible. Reasonable ventilation and accelerated diffusion. If possible, use it immediately. The air leakage container shall be properly handled, repaired and inspected for reuse.

Folding disposal and storage

Operating precautions:closed operation, local exhaust. Operators must be specially trained and strictly comply with the operating procedures. It is recommended that the operator wear a filter gas mask(half mask). Keep away from flammable and combustible materials. Prevent gas from leaking into the workplace air. Avoid contact with oxidant. Handle gently to prevent damage of steel cylinders and accessories. Equipped with leakage emergency handling equipment.

Storage precautions: Store in a cool and ventilated warehouse. Keep away from the fire and heat. The temperature of the reservoir should not exceed 30 ℃. It shall be stored separately from the combustible substance and the oxidizing agent, and the mixed storage shall be avoided. The storage area shall be provided with a leakage emergency treatment equipment.
