Administrative data
First-aid measures
After inhalation:
Supply fresh air. If symptoms are experienced, get medical attention. In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation.
After skin contact:
Immediately rinse with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation or skin rash occurs.
After eye contact:
Immediately rinse with plenty of water. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Hold eyelids apart and flush eyes with plenty of cool low-pressure water for 15 minutes. Consult an ophtalmologist.
After swallowing:
Do not induce vomiting. If the person is conscious, rinse out mouth with water. Call for a doctor immediately.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing agents: carbon dioxide, foam, fire-extinguishing powder.
Hazardous thermal decomposition products: in case of fire, may release irritant and toxic fumes.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:
Firefighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Additional information: cool endangered receptacles with water spray.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.
Provide adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow product to reach soil, waterways, drains and sewers.
Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (soil, waterways, drains or sewers).
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Small spills:
Absorb spilled liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.
Large spills:
Stop spill if it can be done without danger. Dike. Pump as much liquid as possible with an explosion-proof pump or a hand pump. Absorb the remaining liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.
Handling and storage
This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly
Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4). Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at
each manufacturing site.
Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every affected Distributor and Downstream Processor/User of the Registrant’s intermediate.
Precautions for safe handling:
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Provide adequate ventilation in the workplace.
Information about fire - and explosion protection: Keep ignition sources away. Protect from heat.
Conditions for safe storage:
If possible, store the drums or ecobulk under shelter in a cool and well ventilated place.
Keep container type drums or ecobulk tightly closed. Keep away from sources of ignition.
Protect drums or ecobulk from high heat and direct sunlight.

Exposure controls
General protective and hygienic measures: The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals. Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure. Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection: Use suitable respiratory protective device in case of insufficient ventilation.
Hand protection: Protective gloves resistant to chemicals (standard EN 374-1). They should be replaced regularly and if there is any indication of degradation.
Eye/face protection: Safety glasses (standard EN 166).
Body protection: Protective work clothing.
