First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
General information
Move affected person to fresh air at once. Move affected person to fresh air and keep warm
and at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Get medical attention.
Inhalation
Move affected person to fresh air at once. For breathing difficulties, oxygen may be
necessary. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Ingestion
Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If vomiting
occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Rinse mouth
thoroughly with water. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Skin contact
Remove affected person from source of contamination. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash
skin thoroughly with soap and water. Get medical attention.
Eye contact Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Rinse immediately with plenty of
water. Get medical attention immediately. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
General information
Effects may be delayed. Keep affected person under observation.
Inhalation
Vapours may cause headache, fatigue, dizziness and nausea. Irritating.
Ingestion
May cause discomfort if swallowed. May cause stomach pain or vomiting. Drowsiness,
dizziness, disorientation, vertigo.
Skin contact
May cause serious chemical burns to the skin.
Eye contact
Causes serious eye damage.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes for the doctor
Effects may be delayed. Keep affected person under observation. Treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Use fire-extinguishing media suitable for the surrounding fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing media
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards
Keep container tightly closed. Containers can burst violently or explode when heated, due to excessive pressure build-up. Irritating and/or toxic gases and particulates may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion.
Advice for firefighters
Protective actions during firefighting
Move containers from fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of sewers and watercourses.
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions
Use approved safety glasses with side shields, or chemical splash goggles and a face shield. Wear protective gloves made of butyl rubber, or viton (fluoro) rubber as advised by supplier/manufacturer with regards to breakthrough-time of the gloves. Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of skin contact. Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if risk assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into drains or watercourses or onto the ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up
Provide adequate ventilation. Do not touch or walk into spilled material. Wear suitable protective equipment, including gloves, goggles/face shield, respirator, boots, clothing or apron, as appropriate. Smaller quantities of residue may be collected by an absorbent. Collect and place in suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Usage precautions
Avoid spilling. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation of dust and vapours.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage precautions
Store in tightly-closed, original container in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep only in the original container.
Storage class

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters
Ingredient comments
No exposure limits known for ingredient(s).
Exposure controls
Protective equipment
Appropriate engineering controls
Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. All handling should only take place in well-ventilated areas.
Eye/face protection Use approved safety glasses with side shields. Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates eye contact is possible. The following protection should be worn: Chemical splash goggles and face shield.
Hand protection Wear protective gloves made of the following material: Butyl rubber. Viton rubber (fluoro rubber). The most suitable glove should be chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information about the breakthrough time of the glove material.
Other skin and body protection
Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of skin contact.
Hygiene measures
Do not smoke in work area. Wash promptly if skin becomes contaminated. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Promptly remove any clothing that becomes contaminated. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Contaminated clothing should be placed in a closed container for disposal or decontamination. Warn cleaning personnel of any hazardous properties of the product.
Respiratory protection
No specific recommendations. Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible.
Environmental exposure controls
Store in a demarcated bunded area to prevent release to drains and/or watercourses. Do not empty into drains, soil or bodies of water.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
General information
Waste is classified as hazardous waste. Dispose of waste to licensed waste disposal site in accordance with the requirements of the local Waste Disposal Authority. Do not dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into any body of water. Not to be disposed of together with household waste. Any disposal practice must be in compliance with all local and national laws and regulations. Handle and dispose contaminated packages in the same way as the product itself. Fully cured product residues are generally not regarded as hazardous waste.
Disposal methods
The product as supplied should be disposed of as hazardous waste according to European Directive 91/689/EEC.
Waste class
The waste code number applies to actual wastes depending on its origin and not to substances or mixtures as placed on the market. Only the practical application of the user enables the proper allocation. Allocation of the waste code number according to the European Waste Catalogue (Commission Decision 2000/532/EC and 2001/118/EC) should be carried out in agreement with the regional waste disposal company and/or the supervisory authority.
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.
