First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures:
Oral intake: Rinse the mouth with water. Drink middle liter of milk or water. Do not induce vomiting.
Seek medical attention.
Inhalation: In the case of excessive inhalation, take the subject outdoors to breathe fresh air while
remaining quiet and in a comfortable position. Seek immediate medical attention.
Skin contact: In case of skin contact, remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water.
If irritation persists or wounds appear, seek medical advice immediately.
Eye contact: In case of eyes contact clean with abundant water. If irritation persists or there is tissue
damage, seek medical advice immediately.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media:
Carbon dioxide, dry powder, dry sand, earth or fire blanket.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Advice for firefighters:
Do not breathe gas/fumes/vapour, may produce toxic fumes of carbon monoxide if burning.
Self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Keep away from ignition sources.
Provide sufficient ventilation
Collect up spilt product and dispose according to local regulations.
Environmental precautions:
Do not pour into drains, subterranean or surface water nor on to the ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Use dry sand, earth or sawdust to absorb the spilt product. Dispose of according to current
regulations.
All combustible materials, such as cloth, used to clean up the spill must be handled according
to current regulation.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Open and handle container with care.
Provide good room ventilation.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Keep away from food and beverages.
Wash hands after handling.
Keep fire-extinguisher accessible.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep all packagings in a well ventilated area.
Keep away from heat source.
Shelf life: months in appropriate storage condition.
Avoid successive heating due to possible oxidation and polymerisation without correct storage.
Specific end use(s):
Closed recipients, away from the light, in a cool, dry place (optimum storage temperature
between 10ºC and 25ºC
