Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation
Move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Place unconscious person on the side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place.
In case of persistent throat irritation or coughing: Seek medical attention and bring these instructions.
Ingestion
Get medical attention if any discomfort continues. Drink plenty of water. Never give liquid to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting.
Skin contact
Get medical attention if irritation persists after washing. Remove contaminated clothes and rinse skin thoroughly with water. Wash skin with soap and water.
Eye contact
Immediately rinse with water. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media:
Foam, carbon dioxide or dry powder.
Unsuitable extinguishing media:
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Hazardous combustion products:
During fire, toxic gases (CO, CO2) are formed.
Advice for firefighters:
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: No specific fire fighting procedure given.
Protective equipment for fire-fighters: Self contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
For personal protection, exposure controls/personal protection section.
Environmental precautions:
Avoid discharge to the aquatic environment.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Flush away spillage with plenty of water.
Reference to other sections:
Collect and dispose of spillage as indicated in disposal consideration section.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Avoid inhalation of vapours. Provide good ventilation. Protect against direct sunlight. Container must be kept tightly closed.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep containers tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Store away from: Acids. Alkalis. Oxidising material. Suitable containers: Carbon steel. Stainless steel. Plastic lined steel drum.
Storage Class:
Unspecified storage.
Specific end use(s)
The identified uses for this product are detailed in Section 3.5 of this dossier.
