First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety. If the patient is likely to become
unconscious, place and transport in stable sideways position (recovery position). Immediately remove
contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. Immediately inhale corticosteroid dose
aerosol.
On skin contact:
Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.
On contact with eyes:
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open,
consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion:
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
Hazards:
No hazard is expected under intended use and appropriate handling.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific
antidote.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
water spray, dry powder, foam
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information:
Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective clothing.
Breathing protection required. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat,
sparks, open flame.
Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For small amounts: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose
binder, kieselguhr). Do not spread product with water. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance
with regulations.
For large amounts: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose
binder, kieselguhr). Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Sources of ignition should be kept well clear.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Store protected against freezing.
Storage stability:
Storage temperature: 0 - 40 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate.
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)
Eye protection:
Tightly fitting safety goggles (cage goggles) (e.g. EN 166) and face shield.
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting
boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of
dust).
General safety and hygiene measures
Do not inhale gases/vapours/aerosols. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety
practice. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Corrosion to metals: Corrosive effect on metals.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid extreme heat.
Incompatible materials
Substances to avoid:
strong oxidizing agents, strong alkalies
Hazardous decomposition products:
No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Must be disposed of or incinerated in accordance with local regulations.
Contaminated packaging:
Uncontaminated packaging can be re-used.
Packs that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
