First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures
After inhalation: fresh air. If breathing stops: mouth-to-mouth breathing or artificial respiration. Oxygen if necessary. Immediately call in physician.
After skin contact: wash off with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Consult a physician.
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water.
After swallowing: immediately make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult a physician.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
irritant effects, Cough, respiratory paralysis, Shortness of breath, Unconsciousness, Fever
The following applies to phenols in general: irritant or even caustic effect upon contact with skin or mucous membranes.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
No information available.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Water, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Dry powder
Unsuitable extinguishing media
For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Combustible.
Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.
Forms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating.
Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.
Fire may cause evolution of:
Hydrogen chloride gas

Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.
Further information
Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet. Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Advice for non-emergency personnel: Avoid substance contact. Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Advice for emergency responders: Protective equipment see section 8 of SDS.

Environmental precautions
Do not empty into drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Cover drains. Collect, bind, and pump off spills.
Observe possible material restrictions (see sections 7 and 10 of SDS).
Take up with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb® ). Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.

Reference to other sections
Indications about waste treatment see section 13 of SDS.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling
Observe label precautions.
Work under hood. Do not inhale substance/mixture. Avoid generation of vapours/aerosols.
Hygiene measures
Immediately change contaminated clothing. Apply preventive skin protection. Wash hands and face after working with substance.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage conditions
Tightly closed.
Store at +15°C to +25°C.

Specific end use(s)
Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1.2 of the SDS no other specific uses are stipulated.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters
Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.

Exposure controls
Engineering measures
Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment.
See section 7.1 of SDS.

Individual protection measures
Protective clothing needs to be selected specifically for the workplace, depending on concentrations and quantities of the hazardous substances handled. The chemical resistance of the protective equipment should be enquired at the respective supplier.
Eye/face protection
Safety glasses
Hand protection
full contact:
Glove material:
butyl-rubber
Glove thickness:
0.7 mm
Break through time:
> 480 min
splash contact:
Glove material:
polychloroprene
Glove thickness:
0.65 mm
Break through time:
> 30 min
The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 898 Butoject® (full contact), KCL 720 Camapren® (splash contact).
The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types.
This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet<(>,<)> supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN374 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves (e.g. KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Internet: www.kcl.de).
Other protective equipment
protective clothing
Respiratory protection
required when vapours/aerosols are generated.
Recommended Filter type: Filter A-(P2)
The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.

Environmental exposure controls
Do not empty into drains.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity
steam-volatile
Forms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating.

Chemical stability
The product is chemically stable under standard ambient conditions (room temperature) .

Possibility of hazardous reactions
Violent reactions possible with:
Strong oxidizing agents, Acid anhydrides, acid halides, Aluminium, Copper

Conditions to avoid
Strong heating.
A range from approx. 15 Kelvin below the flash point is to be rated as critical.

Incompatible materials
no information available

Hazardous decomposition products
in the event of fire: See section 5 of SDS.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods
Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with the Directive on waste 2008/98/EC as well as other national and local regulations. Leave chemicals in original containers. No mixing with other waste. Handle uncleaned containers like the product itself.
