On contact with eyes:

Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.

On ingestion:

Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless told to by a poison control center or doctor.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

foam, water spray, dry powder, carbon dioxide

Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:

water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, harmful vapours, nitrogen oxides, fumes/smoke, carbon black

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.

Further information:

The degree of risk is governed by the burning substance and the fire conditions. If exposed to fire, keep containers cool by spraying with water. Collect contaminated extinguishing water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems. Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Wear eye/face protection. Use personal protective clothing. Handle in accordance with good building materials hygiene and safety practice.

Environmental precautions

Contain contaminated water/firefighting water. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

For small amounts: Pick up with suitable appliance and dispose of. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

For large amounts: Pick up with suitable appliance and dispose of. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

Handling and storage

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

No occupational exposure limits known.

Exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Combination filter for gases/vapours of organic, inorganic, acid inorganic and alkaline compounds (e.g. EN 14387 Type ABEK).

Hand protection:

impermeable gloves

Synthetic rubber gloves

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Eye protection:

Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

Body protection:

Body protection must be chosen based on level of activity and exposure.

General safety and hygiene measures
