Administrative data
First-aid measures
Skin contact: ACT FAST. Discard the affected clothing and wash the skin area exposed to the product with mild soap and water. If there is not a rapidrecovery, get emergency medical attention.
Eye contact: ACT FAST. In case of contact with the eyes, rinse them immediately with clean water for 10-15 minutes. Get in touch immediately with the ophthalmologist.
Ingestion: ACT FAST. Do not administer anything by mouth to a person in unconscious state. Do not induce vomiting.
Main symptoms and effects, acute and delayed
Symptoms related to the: It is not considered to represent a significant risk under the expected conditions
use of normal use.
Indication of all medical care and special treatments to be dispensed immediately
General information: In case of discomfort, see the doctor (if possible, show him the label).
Note to the doctor: Treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Water mist. Foam. Dry powder Carbon dioxide. Sand.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use direct water jet.
Neighboring fires: Use nebulized water to cool the containers exposed to fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Flammability type: Not classified as flammable but may burn.
Hazardous products of combustion: Carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide.
Thermal decomposition generates: corrosive vapor.
Recommendations for firefighting personnel
Protection in case of fire: Do not enter the fire area without adequate protective equipment, including
respiratory protection.
Special procedures: The extinguishing water must not reach the sewers, subsoil or water.
Take the usual precautions in case of chemical fire. Avoid water (excess) fire extinction affects the
Accidental release measures
For emergency personnel: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapors. Evacuate personal to secure areas. Ventilate the area.
Equip the cleaning staff with the appropriate means of protection.
Technical measures: Take special precautions to avoid charges of static electricity.
Eliminate possible sources of ignition.
General precautions: Ensure adequate ventilation.
Precautions for environmental protection
Precautions for the protection of: If the product reaches the drains or public water pipes, environment notify the authorities.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning
Cleaning methods: Collect the spilled material in a suitable container and ensure its recovery or disposal in accordance with current legislation. Discharge disposal according to local / national legislation. Limit the production of dust.
Handling and storage
Personal protection: Do not breathe vapors. Do not breathe the aerosols. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Put on the recommended protective equipment. See section 8
Technical protection measures: Mechanical ventilation is recommended.
Ensure good ventilation of the processing area to avoid steam formation.
Handling: Do not eat, drink or smoke during use. Wash hands and othersexposed areas with a mild soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking and leave workplace
Special precautions: Use only in well-ventilated areas. By using it can be formed explosive / flammable air-vapor mixtures. Do not expose naked flame. Protect yourself of sources of ignition. No Smoking.
Conditions for safe storage, including possible incompatibilities
Storage: Keep the container closed when you are not using it. Keep only in the original container, in a cool and well-ventilated place. Keep in area isolated
Do not store it in corrosive metal containers.
Regulatory storage: Follow with the applicable regulations in force.
Storage - away from: Explosives. Flammable Oxidizing agents Sources of ignition. Hot. Open flame. Sparks Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Bases
powerful. Strong acids Direct sunlight.

Disposal considerations
Method of disposal: If it is possible to recover or recycle. Otherwise: Incineration.
General: Disposal of the spill according to local / national legislation.
Contaminated packaging: Packaging that can not be cleaned should be disposed of as substance. Contaminated packaging must be completely emptied. Rinse
containers three times. Explosion hazard due to the presence of vapor vapors from the product; therefore avoid the formation of sparks in the work of cutting, polishing or welding in the vicinity of the container. Recover washing water to an further elimination. Discharge disposal according to local legislation /
national.
