First-aid measures
4.1 Description of first aid measures
After inhalation: fresh air.
In case of skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/ shower.
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. Immediately call in ophthalmologist.
After swallowing: immediately make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult a physician.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
The following applies to aromatic amines in general: systemic effect: methaemoglobinaemia with headache, cardiac dysrhythmia, drop in blood pressure, dyspnoea, and spasms, principal symptom: cyanosis (blue discolouration of the blood).
Irritation and corrosion
Risk of serious damage to eyes.
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
No information available.
Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Water, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry powder
Unsuitable extinguishing media
For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Combustible.
Risk of dust explosion.
Fire may cause evolution of:
nitrogen oxides, Hydrogen chloride gas
Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire
5.3 Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.
Further information
Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet. Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.
Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Advice for non-emergency personnel: Avoid inhalation of dusts. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Advice for emergency responders:
6.2 Environmental precautions
Do not let product enter drains.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Exposure controls / personal protection
Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits.
Engineering measures : Use only with adequate ventilation. If user operations generate dust, fumes, gas, vapor
or mist, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls
to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended or statutory
limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas, vapor or dust concentrations
below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Appropriate
techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash
contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers
are close to the workstation location.
Personal protection
Respiratory : Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be
based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe
working limits of the selected respirator.
Hands : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. Recommended: nitrile rubber
Eyes : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists or
dusts. If operating conditions cause high dust concentrations to be produced, use dust
goggles. Recommended: safety glasses with side-shields , face shield
Skin : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being
performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling
this product.
Recommended: lab coat
Environmental exposure
controls
: Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they
comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases,
fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be
necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Notice Directive on waste 2008/98/EC.
Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with the national and local regulations. Leave chemicals in original containers. No mixing with other waste. Handle uncleaned containers like the product itself.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
