Administrative data

First-aid measures

After inhalation: fresh air.

After skin contact: wash off with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Consult a

physician.

After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water.

After swallowing: immediately make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult a

physician.

Allergic reactions

The following applies to ketones in general: when vapours/aerosols occur, mucosal irritations,

coughing, and dyspnoea after inhalation. The absorption of large quantities leads to: CNS

depression (narcosis). Repeated skin contact leads to a degreasing effect, with secondary

inflammation possible. Toxic effects on the liver and kidneys cannot be excluded after high

doses. The inhalation of droplets may result in the formation of oedemas in the respiratory tract.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media

Water, Carbon dioxide (CO₂), Foam, Dry powder

Unsuitable extinguishing media

For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.

Combustible material

Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters

Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by

keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.

Further information

Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.

Accidental release measures

Advice for non-emergency personnel: Avoid substance contact. Avoid inhalation of dusts. Ensure

adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an

expert.

Do not empty into drains.

Cover drains. Collect, bind, and pump off spills.

Take up dry. Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area. Avoid generation of dusts.

Handling and storage

Tightly closed. Dry.

Store at +15°C to +25°C.

The substance is manufactured and used under strictly controlled conditions in that it is rigorously contained during its whole lifecycle. This is confirmed for the manufacturing process, the transport as well as for the use of the substance.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures

Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of

personal protective equipment.

Individual protection measures

Protective clothing needs to be selected specifically for the workplace, depending on

concentrations and quantities of the hazardous substances handled. The chemical resistance of

the protective equipment should be enquired at the respective supplier.

Hygiene measures

Immediately change contaminated clothing. Apply preventive skin protection. Wash hands and

face after working with substance.

Eye/face protection

Safety glasses

Hand protection

full contact:

Glove material: Nitrile rubber

Glove thickness: 0.11 mm

Break through time: > 480 min

splash contact:

Glove material: Nitrile rubber

Glove thickness: 0.11 mm

Break through time: > 480 min

The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive

89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374.

Other protective equipment

protective clothing

Respiratory protection

required when dusts are generated.

Recommended Filter type: Filter P 1 (acc. to DIN 3181) for solid particles of inert substances

The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective

devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be

properly documented.

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with the ECHA REACH Guidance on Intermediates (Feb 08) and the Cefic/CONCAWE guidance for industry on SCC (February 09).  Site documentation to confirm safe handling arrangements in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at the manufacturing/import site.

Stability and reactivity

The following applies in general to flammable organic substances and preparations: in

correspondingly fine distribution, when whirled up a dust explosion potential may generally be

assumed.

The product is chemically stable under standard ambient conditions (room temperature) .

Violent reactions possible with:

Strong oxidizing agents

Disposal considerations

Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with the Directive on waste 2008/98/EC as

well as other national and local regulations. Leave chemicals in original containers. No mixing

with other waste. Handle uncleaned containers like the product itself.
