DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES

If inhaled:

- Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of fumes from overheating or combustion.

- Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.

In case of eye contact:

- Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.

- If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

In case of skin contact:

- Wash off with soap and water.

If swallowed:

- Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water.

- Do NOT induce vomiting.

- If symptoms persist, call a physician.

MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED

Inhalation

- Symptoms: Dizziness, narcosis

Skin contact

- May cause skin irritation and/or dermatitis.

2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

- The product is not flammable.

- Not explosive

- The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of heat.

- Explosive reaction may occur on heating or burning.

- Thermal decomposition can lead to release of toxic and corrosive gases.

3. Advice for firefighters

- Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.

- When intervention in close proximity wear acid resistant over suit.

- Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

- Approach from upwind.

- Protect intervention team with a water spray as they approach the fire.

- Keep containers and surroundings cool with water spray.

- Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition

Accidental release measures

1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

1.1. Advice for non-emergency personnel

- Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

1.2. Advice for emergency responders

- Ensure adequate ventilation.

- Sweep up to prevent slipping hazard.

- Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.

2. Environmental precautions

- Should not be released into the environment.

- Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

3. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

- Soak up with inert absorbent material.

- Suitable material for picking up

- Earth

- Dry sand

- Shovel into suitable container for disposal.

Handling and storage

1. Precautions for safe handling

- No special handling advice required.

- Ensure adequate ventilation.

- Use personal protective equipment.

Exposure controls / personal protection

1. Respiratory protection

- Use respirator when performing operations involving potential exposure to vapour of the product.

- The filter class for the respirator must be suitable for the maximum expected contaminant concentration (gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when handling the product. If this concentration is exceeded, selfcontained breathing apparatus must be used.

- Remove respiratory and skin/eye protection only after vapours have been cleared from the area.

- Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards.

2. Hand protection

- Latex gloves

- Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact).

3. Eye protection

- Tightly fitting safety goggles

4. Skin and body protection

- Long sleeved clothing

- Safety shoes

5. Hygiene measures

- Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.

- When using do not eat, drink or smoke.

- Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

- Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Stability and reactivity

1. Reactivity:

- No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

2. Chemical stability:

- Stable under recommended storage conditions.

3. Possibility of hazardous reactions:

- No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

4. Conditions to avoid:

- To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.

- Keep away from flames and sparks.

5. Incompatible materials:

- Oxidizing agents, Do not mix with polymerisation initiators.

6. Hazardous decomposition products:

- Gaseous hydrogen fluoride (HF)., Fluorophosgene, Gaseous hydrogen chloride (HCl)., Carbon monoxide

Disposal considerations

1. Waste treatment methods:

- Can be incinerated, when in compliance with local regulations.

- The incinerator must be equipped with a system for the neutralisation or recovery of HF.

- In accordance with local and national regulations.

2. Contaminated packaging:

- Purge the container with nitrogen and direct the gas to a treatment plant.

- Empty containers can be landfilled, when in accordance with the local regulations.
