Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing
Seek immediate medical attention/advice
Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance
Eye contact:
Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.
Skin contact:
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. Take off all contaminated clothing and wash it before
reuse. Consult a physician if necessary.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of
water. Consult a physician if necessary. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice.
Inhalation:
Move to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician if necessary.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Water spray. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Foam. Dry powder. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate
to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Extinguishing media which shall not be used for safety reasons:
Don't use waterbeam.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical:
Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition.
Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters:
As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full
protective gear.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures :
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spr
ay. Ensure adequate ventilation.
For emergency responders:
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing dust or vapor.
Environmental precautions :
Try to prevent the material from entering drains or water courses. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Should
not be released into the environment.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical waste container. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal
Methods for cleaning up:
Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. Avoid dust formation. Retain washings as
contaminated waste. Prevent productfrom entering drains.
Handling and storage
Handling:
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid dust formation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation
at places where dust isformed.
General Hygiene Considerations:
Wash hands and face before breaks and immediately after handling the product.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep tightly closed in a dry and cool place. Keep in properly labeled containers. stainless steel. Polyethylene containers. Keep at
temperatures between 18 and 44°C.
