emergency processing：

  1. Skin contact: Immediately remove contaminated clothing and rinse with plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.

   2. Eye contact: Immediately lift eyelids and rinse thoroughly with plenty of running water or saline for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.

   3. Inhalation: quickly leave the scene to the fresh air. Keep your airway clear. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical attention.

    4. Leakage treatment: Quickly evacuate the contaminated area to the upper wind, and immediately isolate, strictly            restrict access. Cut off the fire. Emergency responders are advised to wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. Enter the scene from upwind. Cut off the source of leakage as much as possible. Reasonable ventilation to accelerate diffusion. Spray ammonia or other dilute lye to neutralize. Build embankments or dig pits to contain large amounts of waste water. If possible, send the residual or leaking gas to the washing tower or the fume hood connected to the tower by exhaust fan. The leak container should be properly disposed of, repaired and inspected before use.
