Suspected of damaging fertility.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Treatment

:Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:

Water spray

Alcohol-resistant foam

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Dry chemical

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

High volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Specific hazards during fire-fighting:

Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Flash back possible over considerable distance.

Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air.

Exposure to combustion products may be a hazard to health.

Hazardous combustion products:

Carbon oxides

Silicon oxides

Oxides of phosphorus

Formaldehyde

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters:

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.

Specific extinguishing meth-ods:

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local cir-cumstances and the surrounding environment.

Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Remove undamaged containers from fire area if it is safe to do so.

Evacuate area.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions:

Remove all sources of ignition.

Use personal protective equipment.

Follow safe handling advice and personal protective equipment recommendations.

Environmental precautions: Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Prevent spreading over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers).

Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.

Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Methods for cleaning up:

Non-sparking tools should be used.

Soak up with inert absorbent material.

Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet.

For large spills, provide dyking or other appropriate containment to keep material from spreading. If dyked material can be pumped, store recovered material in appropriate container.

Clean up remaining materials from spill with suitable absorbent.

Local or national regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and items employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which regulations are applicable.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Technical measures:See Engineering measures under EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION section.

Local/Total ventilation:Use with local exhaust ventilation.

Advice on safe handling:       

Do not get on skin or clothing.

Do not breathe vapours or spray mist.

Do not swallow.

Do not get in eyes.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Keep container tightly closed.

Keep away from water.

Protect from moisture.

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Take care to prevent spills, waste and minimize release to the environment.

Hygiene measures:

Ensure that eye flushing systems and safety showers are located close to the working place. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage areas and containers

: Keep in properly labelled containers. Store locked up. Keep tightly closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store in accordance with the particular national regulations. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Advice on common storage

:Do not store with the following product types:

Strong oxidizing agents

Organic peroxides

Explosives

Gases

Specific use(s): These precautions are for room temperature handling.  Use at elevated temperature or aerosol/spray applications may require added precautions.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection:

Wear the following personal protective equipment:

Safety goggles

Hand protection

Material:Chemical-resistant gloves

Remarks:

Choose gloves to protect hands against chemicals depend-ing on the concentration and quantity of the hazardous substance and specific to place of work. Breakthrough time is not determined for the product. Change gloves often! For special applications, we recommend clarifying the resistance to chemicals of the aforementioned protective gloves with the glove manufacturer. Take note that the product is flammable, which may impact the selection of hand protection. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

Skin and body protection:

Select appropriate protective clothing based on chemical resistance data and an assessment of the local exposure potential.

Wear the following personal protective equipment:

Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing.

Skin contact must be avoided by using impervious protec-tive clothing (gloves, aprons, boots, etc).

Respiratory protection: Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust ventilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates that exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.
