Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice : Immediate medical attention is required. Move out of dangerous area. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
Inhalation : If breathed in, move person into fresh air. Consult a physician after significant exposure. Skin contact : Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash the skin immediately with soap and water. Immediate medical treatment is necessary as untreated wounds from corrosion of the skin heal slowly and with difficulty. Eye contact : Rinse with plenty of water. Get medical attention immediately. Continue to rinse during
transport. Remove contact lenses. Protect unharmed eye. Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tissue damage and blindness.
Ingestion : Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Take victim immediately to hospital. Do not induce vomiting! May cause chemical burns in mouth and throat.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media : Dry chemical Alcohol-resistant foam Specific hazards during fire fighting : Treat as oil fire. Water spray may be ineffective unless used by experienced firefighters. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses. Special protective equipment for fire-fighters : In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Further information : Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For safety reasons in case of fire, cans should be stored separately in closed containments.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions : For personal protection see section 8. Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Environmental precautions : Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities. Methods for cleaning up : Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling : For personal protection see section 8. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.
Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations. Advice on protection against fire and explosion : Avoid formation of aerosol. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge. Requirements for storage
areas and containers : No smoking. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Other data : No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
