Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice
When in doubt or if symptoms are observed, get medical advice.
If inhaled
If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
In case of skin contact
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Remove contaminated, saturated clothing and shoes immediately. In case of skin irritation, consult a physician.
In case of eye contact
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Immediately consult an ophthalmologist.
If swallowed
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
no information available
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
no information available
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam or dry chemical
Unsuitable extinguishing media
High power water jet
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Emission of irritating and toxic fumes and gases. Release of: Carbon oxides, Nitrogen oxides
Advice for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting. Full protection suit.
Additional information
Do not allow run-off from fire-fighting to enter drains or water courses. Suppress gases/vapours/mists with water spray jet. Cool endangered containers by water spray or water jet.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation.
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
Soak up with inert, non-acidic and non-combustible absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Clean up affected area.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice: Do not eat, drink, and smoke. Wash hands before break and after work.
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.
Hints on joint storage
Storage separated from: oxidising agents
For storage in a common place refer to the respective regulations.
Suitable container material: stainless steel
Specific end use(s)
intermediate under strictly controlled conditions

Exposure controls / personal protection
European occupational exposure limits
no data available
Appropriate engineering controls
Provide adequate ventilation as well as local exhaustion at critical locations. Provide eye wash equipment and emergency shower near the workplace.
Eye/face protection
Tightly fitting safety goggles. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as EN166(EU).
Skin protection
The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the standard EN 374. Gloves must be inspected prior to use.
The quality of the protective gloves resistant to chemicals must be chosen as a function of the specific working place concentration and quantity of hazardous substances. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.
Recommended glove material: Nature latex/chloroprene
Minimum layer thickness: 0.6 mm
Break through time: 480 min
Body Protection
Complete suit protecting against chemicals, The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator.
Control of environmental exposure
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
No data available
Chemical stability
May absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from air.
Stable under recommended storage conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
No hazardous reaction when handled and stored according to provisions.
Conditions to avoid
Heat, sun light
Incompatible materials
Oxidizing agents,
copper, zinc, iron
acids, bases
Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions: Carbon oxides, Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Disposal considerations
Advice on disposal
Chemicals and packages as waste must be disposed of in accordance with Directive 2008/98/EC and the respective national and local regulations. Consult your local or regional authorities. Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Dispose of waste according to applicable legislation.
Contaminated packaging
Non-contaminated packages may be recycled. Handle contaminated packages in the same way as the substance itself.
