Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Remove contaminated clothing. If danger of loss of consciousness, place patient in recovery position
and transport accordingly. Apply artificial respiration if necessary. First aid personnel should pay
attention to their own safety.
If inhaled:
Immediately administer a corticosteroid from a controlled/metered dose inhaler. Keep patient calm,
remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.
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.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms: The most important known symptoms and effects are described in the labelling.
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
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
water spray, foam, dry powder
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Risk of violent self-polymerization if overheated in a container.
Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Fight fire from maximum distance. Cool endangered containers with water-spray. Evacuate area of
all unnecessary personnel. In case of a fire in the vicinity evacuate all personnel in a greater area if
the temperature in the storage container reaches 75°C.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.
Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into waterways or sewer systems without proper authorization.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For large amounts: Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance
with regulations.
.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Ensure thorough ventilation
of stores and work areas. The substance/ product may be handled only by appropriately trained
personnel.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Ground all transfer equipment properly to
prevent electrostatic discharge. Containers should be grounded against electrostatic charge.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Segregate from alkalies and alkalizing substances. Segregate from strong acids.
Further information on storage conditions: Protect against moisture.
Prior to storage ensure that the transfer equipment used and the intended storage containers do not
contain other substances/products. Before transfer to stock the identity of the product must be
proved to be without doubt. The entrance to storage rooms is to be granted only to appropriately
trained personnel.
Risk of polymerization.
Protect against heat. Protect from direct sunlight. Protect contents from the effects of light. Avoid UV-light and other radiation with high energy. Protect against contamination.
All storage containers should at least be equipped with two high temperature alert devices.
Even if the product is stored and handled as prescribed/indicated it should be used up within the
indicated duration of storage.
Storage stability:
Storage temperature: <= 2 °C
Storage duration: 6 Months
Keep container tightly closed and dry.
The stated storage temperature should be noted.
Avoid prolonged storage.
This product should be processed as soon as possible.
The product is stabilized, the shelf life should be noted.
Do not store with less than 10 % headspace above liquid.
Storage stability is based upon ambient temperatures and conditions described.
Shelf life is limited.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Breathing protection if gases/vapours are formed. Suitable respiratory protection for lower
concentrations or short-term effect: Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point
>65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)
Hand protection:
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,
corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness
Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2,
corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374)
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.
Eye protection:
Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash 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
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Avoid contact with eyes.
Avoid inhalation of dusts/mists/vapours.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Formation of flammable gases:
Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
