If swallowed
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult
a physician.
2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
The most important known symptoms and effects are described in the labelling

Fire-fighting measures

1. Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Carbon oxides, Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
3. Advice for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

Accidental release measures

1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure
adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
For personal protection see section "Exposure controls/ personal protection"
2. Environmental precautions
Do not let product enter drains.
3. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Soak up with inert absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

1. Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist.
Normal measures for preventive fire protection.
2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent
leakage.

Exposure controls / personal protection

1. Control parameters
Components with workplace control parameters
2. Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands
before breaks and at the end of workday.
Personal protective equipment
- Eye/face protection
Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN
166(EU).
-Skin protection
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove
removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact
with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with
applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.
The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU)
2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
-Body Protection
Complete suit protecting against chemicals, The type of protective equipment must
be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance
at the specific workplace.
-Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a fullface
respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387)
respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole
means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and
components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as
NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
-Control of environmental exposure
Do not let product enter drains.

Stability and reactivity

1. Chemical stability
Stable under recommended storage conditions

2. Incompatible materials
Strong acids, Strong bases, Strong oxidizing agents, Strong reducing agents

3.Hazardous decomposition products
Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. - Carbon oxides, Nitrogen
oxides (NOx)
