Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment
must be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and place in
container for disposal according to local regulations. Do not flush with water.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.
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.
Never allow product to get in contact with water during storage.
Handle and store under inert gas. Heat- and air-sensitive. Dry residue is explosive. Store under inert gas.
Test for peroxide formation periodically and before distillation.
Storage class (TRGS 510): Hazardous materials, which set free flammable gases upon contact with water

dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a back up to engineering controls. If the respirator
is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied airrespirator. Use respirators and components tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Stability and reactivity
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Reacts violently with water.
Conditions to avoid
Heat, flames and sparks. Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight. Exposure to moisture
Incompatible materials
Reacts violently with:, Water, acids, Alcohols, Oxidizing agents
Hazardous decomposition products
Reacts with water to form: - Hydrogen gas
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Product
Burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber but exert extra care in igniting as
this material is highly flammable. Offer surplus and non-recyclable solutions to a licensed disposal company.
Contaminated packaging
Dispose of as unused product.
