(see section 4 on first aid). 4. first aid measures first aid - inhalation remove affected person to fresh air, and if still feeling unwell seek medical attention. first aid - skin do not pull bonded skin apart. it may be gently peeled apart using a blunt object such as a spoon, preferably after soaking in warm soapy water. cyanoacrylates give off heat on solidification. in rare cases a large drop will generate enough heat to cause a burn. burns should be treated normally after the adhesive has been removed from the skin. if lips are accidentally stuck together apply warm water to the lips and encourage maximum wetting and pressure from saliva inside the mouth. peel or roll lips apart. do not try to pull the lips apart with direct opposing action. first aid - eyes if the eye is bonded closed, release eyelashes with warm water by covering with wet pad. cyanoacrylate will bond to eye protein causing lachrymatory effect which will help to debond adhesive. keep eye covered until debonding is complete, usually within 1-3 days. do not force eye open. medical advice should be sought in case solid particles of cyanoacrylate trapped behind the eyelid cause any abrasive damage. first aid - ingestion ensure that breathing passages are not obstructed. the product will polymerise immediately in the mouth making it almost impossible to swallow. saliva will slowly separate the solidified product from the mouth (several hours). 5. fire fighting measures non flammable product (flash point is greater than 80c (cc)). if product is involved in fire extinguish with dry powder, foam or carbon dioxide. trace amounts of toxic fumes may be released
