Environmental precautions
Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For large amounts: Pump off product.
For residues: Allow to evaporate.

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. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Protect from direct sunlight. Sealed containers should be protected against heat as this results in pressure build-up.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy. If exposed to fire, keep containers cool by spraying with water.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Segregate from acids and acid forming substances.
Suitable materials for containers: Stainless steel 1.4301 (V2), Stainless steel 1.4401, Carbon steel (Iron)
Storage stability:
Storage temperature: < 25 °C
Storage duration: < 12 Months
From the data on storage duration in this safety data sheet no agreed statement regarding the warrantee of application properties can be deduced.
Protect from temperatures above: 25 °C
Specific end use(s)
See exposure scenario(s) in the attachment to the safety data sheet.

Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Consider the risk management measures as outlined in the exposure scenario.
Hand protection:
Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact
(Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) etc.
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:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
No body protection required if used for intended purpose and satisfying generally accepted industrial hygiene rules.
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. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. 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. Store work clothing separately.

Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
When heated can give off ignitable vapours.
Corrosion to metals: Corrosive effects to metal are not anticipated.
Formation of flammable gases:
Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated. The product is stabilized against spontaneous polymerization prior to despatch.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
The product can polymerize if the shelf life or storage temperature are greatly exceeded. Reacts with Lewis acids. Reacts with peroxides. Polymerization occurs with acids and acid forming substances. Heat develops during polymerization. With unstabilised product, spontaneous polymerisation may occur e.g. through ambient heat. The reaction without heat removal may lead to temperatures above 250°C. Risk of spontaneous polymerization when heated or in the presence of UV radiation. Vapours may form ignitable mixture with air.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame. Avoid heat. Avoid UV-light and other radiation with high energy.
Incompatible materials
Substances to avoid:
oxidizing agents, acids, acid forming substances, acidic salts
Hazardous decomposition products

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.
A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to dependence on the usage.
The waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) must be specified in cooperation with disposal agency/manufacturer/authorities.
