First-aid measures

General advice:

Remove contaminated clothing.

If inhaled:

Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.

On skin contact:

Wash thoroughly with soap and water.

On contact with eyes:

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

On ingestion:

Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.

Note to physician:

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

water spray, dry powder, foam

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

harmful vapours

Evolution of fumes/fog. The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.

Further information:

Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Use personal protective clothing. Information regarding personal protective measures see, section 8.

Environmental precautions:

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

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

For large amounts: Dike spillage. Pump off product.

For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling

Precautions for safe handling:

No special measures necessary provided product is used correctly.

Protection against fire and explosion:

No special precautions necessary.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

Segregate from acids and bases. Segregate from strong oxidizing agents.

Suitable materials for containers: High density polyethylene (HDPE), Low density polyethylene (LDPE), Carbon steel (Iron)

Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and in a cool place.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls:

Personal protective equipment:

Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2)

Hand protection:

Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)

Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):

e.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and other

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

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 depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of dust).

General safety and hygiene measures:

Wearing of closed work clothing is recommended. No eating, drinking, smoking or tobacco use at the place of work. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity:

No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Corrosion to metals:

No corrosive effect on metal.

Chemical stability:

The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Possibility of hazardous reactions:

Evolution of ammonia under influence of alkaline substances. Reacts with hypochlorites under formation of explosive chloramines.

Conditions to avoid:

See MSDS section 7 - Handling and storage.

Incompatible materials:

Substances to avoid:

oxidizing agents, bases, amphoteric metals, chlorinating agents, hypochlorites, halogens, light metals, reducing agents, strong acids

Hazardous decomposition products:

No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Disposal considerations

Must be dumped or incinerated in accordance with local regulations.

Contaminated packaging:

Uncontaminated packaging can be re-used.

Packs that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
