Inhalation:
Move to fresh air, consult doctor if complaint persists.
Skin contact:
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.
Eye contact:
If the eye is bonded closed, release eyelashes with warm water by covering with wet pad.
Cyanoacrylate will bond to eye protein and will cause periods of weeping which will help to debond the 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.
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).
