Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General information
In case of persisting adverse effects, consult a physician. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes and launder thoroughly before reusing.
After inhalation
Ensure supply of fresh air.
After skin contact
Wash off immediately with soap and water.
After eye contact
Remove contact lenses. Rinse eye thoroughly under running water keeping eyelids wide open and protecting the unaffected eye (at least 10 to 15 minutes). Seek medical assistance.
After ingestion
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Seek medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Carbon dioxide; Foam; Dry chemical extinguisher; Water spray jet
Unsuitable extinguishing media
High power water jet
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
In the event of fire, the following can be released: Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Advice for firefighters
Cool endangered containers with water spray jet. Use self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear protective clothing.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency personnel:
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. High risk of slipping due to leakage/spillage of product.
For emergency responders
No data available. Personal protective equipment (PPE) - see below
Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Take up with absorbent material (e.g., sand, kieselguhr, universal binder). When picked up, treat material as prescribed under heading "Disposal considerations".
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling
Provide good ventilation at the work area (local exhaust ventilation, if necessary).
General protective and hygiene measures
Do not eat, drink or smoke during work time. Keep away from foodstuffs and beverages. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately. Wash hands before breaks and after work.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Keep away from sources of heat and ignition. Take precautionary measures against static charges.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Technical measures and storage conditions
Keep container tightly closed and dry in a cool, well-ventilated place.
Requirements for storage rooms and vessels
Store product in closed containers.
Advice on storage assembly
Do not store together with oxidizing agents.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection
If workplace exposure limits are exceeded, a respiration protection approved for this particular job must be worn. In case of aerosol and mist formation, take appropriate measures for breathing protection in the event workplace threshold values are not specified.
Eye / face protection
Safety glasses (EN 166)
Hand protection
In case of intensive contact, wear protective gloves (EN 374). Before use, the protective gloves should be tested in any case for its specific work-station suitability (i.e. mechanical resistance, product compatibility and antistatic properties). Adhere to the manufacturer’s instructions and information relating to the use, storage, care and replacement of protective gloves. Protective gloves shall be replaced immediately when physically damaged or worn. Design operations thus to avoid permanent use of protective gloves.
Other
Normal chemical work clothing.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Product
Allocation of a waste code number, according to the European Waste Catalogue, should be carried out in agreement with the regional waste disposal company.
Packaging
Residuals must be removed from packaging and when emptied completely disposed of in accordance with the regulations for waste removal. Incompletely emptied packaging must be disposed of in the form of disposal specified by the regional disposer.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
