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 administer a corticosteroid from a controlled/metered dose inhaler.

On skin contact:

Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists.

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.

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: foam, carbon dioxide.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

Carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes can be released in case of fire.

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

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. Keep unprotected persons away. Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.

Environmental precautions

Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

For large amounts: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder, kieselguhr).

For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder, kieselguhr).

Correctly dispose of recovered product immediately. Cleaning operations should be carried out only while wearing breathing apparatus.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.

Protection against fire and explosion:

Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Suitable materials for containers: Carbon steel (Iron), High density polyethylene (HDPE), Stove-lacquer RDL 50, glass.

Further information on storage conditions:

Avoid direct sunlight. Keep under inert gas.

Storage stability:

Storage temperature: < 30 °C

Storage duration: 24 Months

From the data on storage duration no agreed statement regarding the warrantee of application properties can be deduced.

Specific end uses

See exposure scenarios in the attachment to the safety data sheet.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point >65 °C, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)

Hand protection:

Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)

Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):

butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

Eye protection:

Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

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

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Consider the risk management measures as outlined in the exposure scenario. Gloves must be inspected regularly and prior to each use. Replace if necessary (e.g. pinhole leaks). Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. Store work clothing separately.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.

Corrosion to metals:

Not corrosive to: Stainless steel

Formation of flammable gases:

Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.

Chemical stability

The product is chemically stable.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Reacts with acids and strong oxidizing agents. Energy is released when reacting with e.g. acids, alkaline reacting substances, amines or catalysts.

Conditions to avoid

Avoid hydrolizing pH conditions. Avoid UV-light and other radiation with high energy.

Incompatible materials

Substances to avoid: free radical initiators, acids.

Hazardous decomposition products

Possible decomposition products: amines, carbon oxides, aldehydes.

These substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.

Dispose of in accordance with national, state and local regulations.

Contaminated packaging

Do not reuse empty containers.
