Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: water spray, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Nitrogen oxides and carbon oxides can be released in case of fire. Under certain conditions in case of fire other hazardous combustion products may be generated.
Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Additional information:
Dispose of fire debris and contaminated fire fighting water in accordance with official regulations.
Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter the sewage system.

Accidental release measures
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
For small amounts: Pick up with absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder).
For large amounts: Pump off product.
Cleaning operations should be carried out only while wearing breathing apparatus. Collect waste in suitable containers, which can be labeled and sealed. To clean the floor and all objects contaminated by this material, use plenty of water.

Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace.
Protection against fire and explosion:
The product is combustible. Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Do not store together with acids and oxidants.
Further information on storage conditions:
Store in cool, dry place in tightly closed receptacles.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment:
General protective and hygienic measures:
Keep away fromfoodstuffs, beverages andfeed.
lmmediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Avoid contact with the eyes.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Pregnant women should strictly avoid inhalation or skin contact.
Do not eat, drink, smoke or sniffwhile working.
Respiratory protection:
In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or
longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device.
Protection of hands:
Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/
the chemical mixture.
Protection gloves
Only use chemical-protective gloves with CE-labelling of category III.
Check the permeability prior to each anewed use of the glove.
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
degradation
· Material of gloves
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also onfurther marks of quality
and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
· Penetration time of glove material
The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be
observed.
· Not suitable are gloves made ofthefollowing materials:
Leather gloves
Strang material gloves
Eye protection:
Tightly sealed goggles
Body protection: Protective work clothing
