First-aid measures

1. DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES

General advice: Move out of dangerous area. Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

If inhaled: If breathed in, move person into fresh air. Remove from exposure, lie down. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. Call a physician immediately.

In case of eye contact: Protect unharmed eye. Remove contact lenses. Immediately flush eye(s) with plenty of water. Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Call a physician immediately.

If a person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the recovery position. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

2. MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED

Corrosive effects

Serious eye damage/eye irritation

3. INDICATION OF ANY IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT NEEDED

Treatment: Treat symptomatically

Fire-fighting measures

1. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA

Suitable extinguishing agents: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet

2. SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE

Specific hazards during fire-fighting: Fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous combustion products

3. ADVICE FOR FIREFIGHTERS

Special protective equipment for firefighters:

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Further information: Standard procedure for chemical fires. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures

1. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS; PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Wear protective equipment.

2. ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS

Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities

3. METHODS AND MATERIAL FOR CONTAINMENT AND CLEANING UP

Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Use mechanical handling equipment. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

1. PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING

Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Avoid formation of aerosol. Keep away from sources of igni-tion - No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.

Hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work-day.

2. CONDITIONS FOR SAFE STORAGE, INCLUDING ANY INCOMPATIBLITIES

Requirements for storage areas and containers: No smoking. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.

Other data: No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.

Further information about storage conditions:
