First-aid measures
First aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air if adverse effects are observed.
Eye contact: Any material that contacts the eye should be washed out immediately with water. If easy to do, remove contact lenses.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. If skin irritation occurs, get medical attention.
Ingestion: Treat symptomatically. Get medical attention.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:
See section “Toxicological Information”.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Hazards: No data available.
Treatment: Treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Firefighting measures
General Fire Hazards: No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted.
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: CO2, dry chemical, foam, water spray, water fog.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Not determined.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: See section “Stability and Reactivity” for additional information. Container may rupture on heating. Water or foam may cause frothing. Avoid solid streams of water. Use water spray.
Advice for firefighters
Special firefighting procedures: No data available.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: Recommend wearing self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental release measures
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Ventilate area if spilled in confined space or other poorly ventilated areas. Personal Protective Equipment must be worn, see Personal Protection Section for PPE recommendations.
Environmental Precautions:
Avoid release to the environment. Do not contaminate water sources or sewer. Environmental manager must be informed of all major spillages. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Dike far ahead of larger spill for later recovery and disposal. Pick up free liquid for recycle and/or disposal. Residual liquid can be absorbed on inert material. Wash area with soap and water. Spilled liquid and dried film are slippery. Use care to avoid falls.
Reference to other sections:
See sections sections “Exposure Controls/Personal Protection” and “Disposal Considerations” for additional information
Handling and storage
Handling and storage:
Precautions for safe handling: Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid breathing mists or vapors. Keep containers closed when not in use. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Stir well before use. Minimize contact with air to reduce contamination with mold, fungus, or other organisms which could cause decomposition or spoilage. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Maximum Handling Temperature: Not determined.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store away from incompatible materials. See section 10 for incompatible materials. Keep from freezing. Do not store in open, unlabeled or mislabeled containers.
Maximum Storage Temperature: Not determined.
Specific end use(s):
End uses are listed in an attached exposure scenario when one is required.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure controls/personal protection
1. Control Parameters:
Occupational Exposure Limits
None of the components have assigned exposure limits.
2. Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls: Use material in well-ventilated area only. Adequate ventilation should be provided so that exposure limits are not exceeded. Mechanical ventilation or local exhaust ventilation may be required.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
General information: Use personal protective equipment as required.
Eye/face protection: If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended.
Skin protection
Hand Protection: Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove supplier. Use good industrial hygiene practices to avoid skin contact. If contact with the material may occur wear chemically protective gloves.
Other: Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minimize contact.
Respiratory Protection: Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate respiratory protection for your specific use of this material. A respiratory protection program compliant with all applicable regulations must be followed whenever workplace conditions require the use of a respirator. Under normal use conditions, respirator is not usually required. Use appropriate respiratory protection if exposure to dust particles, mist or vapors is likely.
Hygiene measures: Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing to remove contaminants. Discard contaminated footwear that cannot be cleaned.
Environmental Controls: No data available.
See section “Accidental Release Measures” for details.
Stability and reactivity
Stability and reactivity
1 Reactivity: No data available.
2 Chemical Stability: Material is stable under normal conditions.
3 Possibility of Hazardous Reactions: Will not occur.
4 Conditions to Avoid: Do not freeze.
5 Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents.
6 Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermal decomposition or combustion may liberate carbon oxides and other toxic gases or vapors. Irritating and toxic substances may be emitted upon combustion, burning, or decomposition of dry solids.
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Disposal methods: Treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal must be in accordance with applicable Federal, State/Provincial, and Local regulations. Since emptied containers retain product residue, follow label warnings even after container is emptied.
Contaminated Packaging: Container packaging may exhibit hazards.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
