Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.
Inhalation:
Move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. In case of persistent problems : Consult a physician.
Skin contact:
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.
Eye contact:
No hazards which require special first aid measures.
Ingestion:
Consult a physician.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder extinguishers., Use suitable means to extinguish
neighbouring fires.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water jet.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Possible formation of carbon oxides and hazardous organic compounds.
Advice for firefighters:
Specific methods:
In case of fire nearby, remove exposed 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. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Ensure a system for the rapid emptying of containers.
Special protective actions for fire-fighters:
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Complete suit protecting against chemicals.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate area of all unnecessary personnel.
Environmental precautions:
Do not release into the environment. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Methods for cleaning up:
Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
Recovery:
Recover the product by vacuuming. Sweep up and recover by any method preventing dust formation.
Elimination:
Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Technical measures/Precautions:
Provide water supplies, ocular fountains and showers near the point of use.
Safe handling advice:
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.
Hygiene measures:
Wash hands after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Packaging material:
Recommended: Original packaging
