Administrative data
First-aid measures
Do not get in eyes, on skin or clothing
Do not breathe dust or mist
Avoid formation of dust and aerosols
Inhalation of vapors may cause irritation to the upper respiratory tract
CONTACT WITH EYE
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
CONTACT WITH SKIN
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes and contaminated shoes. Wash with warm water and soap. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
SWELLOW
Induce vomiting, but only if victim is fully conscious. Drink plenty of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center.
INHALATION
Move to fresh air. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
PROTECTION OF FIRST-AIDERS
Take appropriate steps to avoid fire, explosion and inhalation hazards.
Fire-fighting measures
- Extinguishing media not to be used for safety reasons: none.
- Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters: standard procedure for chemical fires. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Worn in case of fire, if necessary, respiratory protection devices with independent air supply.
Accidental release measures
- Environmental precautions: do not contaminate ground water with the material. Prevent product from entering drains. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages can not be contained.
- Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: soak up with inert absorbent material. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. Prevent product from entering drains.
Handling and storage
- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles.
Skin protection: Clothes with long sleeves.
Hand protection: Neoprene gloves. Nitrile rubber.
Respiratory protection: Dust mask.
Other: Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation
General hygiene considerations: Remove contaminated clothing and wash before re-use. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product.
Control of environmental exposure
Do not contaminate ground water with the material. Prevent product from entering drains. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages can not be contained.
Stability and reactivity
- Dangerous reactions: none, during the normal use.
- Conditions to be avoided: Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight. Avoid high air humidity. moist air and water.
- Materials to be avoided: Incompatible with oxidizing agents. Incompatible with strong acids and bases.
- Dangerous products of decopmposition: Hydrogen chloride gas, nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Disposal considerations
- Containers contaminated: Empty containers should be taken to an authorized site for recycling or disposal.

Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
