Description of first aid measures

Remove contaminated or saturated clothing.

Inhalation

Following inhalation of aerosols or mist:

Possible discomfort: irritation of mucous lining (nose, throat, eyes) cough, sneezing, flow of tears.

Move victims into fresh air.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

Skin contact

Wash off immediately with plenty of water.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

Eye contact

Keeping eyelid open, immediately rinse thoroughly for at least 5 minutes using plenty of water or, if necessary, eye rinsing solution.

Consult an ophthalmologist.

Ingestion

Have the mouth rinsed with water.

Have patient drink plenty of water in small sips.

Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms - None known

Hazards - None known

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

If required, therapy of irritative effect.

If substance has been swallowed:

Early endoscopy in order to assess mucosa lesions in the oesophagus and stomach which may appear. If necessary, aspirate leftover substance.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:       

Dry chemical

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

sand

Foam

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       

Water

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

In the case of fire, the following hazardous smoke fumes may be produced: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.

Advice for firefighters

Material used to extinguish fire and fire residue should not enter drainage systems, soil, or stretches of water. Material used to extinguish fire must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Employ protective equipment commonly used in the event of fire.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear personal protective equipment.       

Environmental precautions

Do not allow entrance in sewage water, groundwater or drainage systems.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Use a liquid-binding material to take up small amounts

Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Ensure suitable suction/aeration at the work place and with operational machinery.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

Take precautionary measures against static charges, keep away from sources of ignition.

When repairs of the production system are to be made (e.g. welding work), the section to be repaired must be essentially free of product.

Storage

Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place.

Keep container tightly closed.

Avoid heat effect and sources of ignition.

Advice on common storage

Do not store together with: oxidizing agents.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

Other information

No substance-specific limiting value being known.

Exposure controls

Engineering measures

Ensure suitable suction/aeration at the work place and with operational machinery.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection

Use suitable respiratory protection where aerosols/vapours are generated.

Hand protection

Wear protective gloves made of the following materials:.

Glove material       Natural rubber (NR)

Material thickness       0,5 mm

Break through time       > 480 min

Glove material       Polychloroprene (PCP)

Material thickness       0,5 mm

Break through time       > 480 min

Glove material       PVC

Material thickness       0,5 mm

Break through time       > 480 min

The material thickness and rupture time data do not apply to non-solute solids / dusts.

Selection of protective gloves to meet the requirements of specific workplaces.

Suitability for specific workplaces should be clarified with protective glove manufacturers.

Please observe that the daily duration of usage of a chemical protective glove is in practice far shorter due to the many influencing factors (e.g. temperature, mechanical strain on the glove material) than the permeation time determined acc. EN 374.

Eye protection

close-fitting protective goggles (e.g. closed goggles)

Skin and body protection

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Hygiene measures

Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.

Wash face and/or hands before break and end of work.

Apply adequate skin protection agents before handling the product. Assure skin cleaning and skin care after work. Preventive skin protection is recommended.

Protective measures

The personal protective equipment used must meet the requirements of directive 89/686/EEC and amendments (CE certification).

It should be defined in the work place in the form of a risk analysis according to directive 89/686/EEC and amendments.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Chemical stability

Stable under recommended storage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Conditions to avoid

Keep away from sources of heat, flames and sparks.

Incompatible materials

strong oxidants

Hazardous decomposition products

No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Product

Can be landfilled or incinerated, when in compliance with local regulations.

Uncleaned packaging

Do not reuse empty containers and dispose of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.

If there is product residue in the emptied container, follow directions for handling on the container's label.

Waste Key Number

No waste key number as per the European Waste Types List can be assigned to this product, since such classification is based on the (as yet undetermined) use to which the product is put by the consumer.

The waste key number must be determined as per the European Waste Types List (decision on EU Waste Types List 2000/532/EC) in cooperation with the disposal firm / producing firm / official authority.
