First-aid measures
- General information: In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show safety data sheet if possible).
- Following inhalation: Remove casualty to fresh air and keep warm and at rest.
- After skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing. After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap.
- Following eye contact: In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart. Subsequently consult an ophthalmologist.
- After ingestion: Rinse mouth thoroughly with water.
- Self-protection of the first aider: First aid assistant: Pay attention to self-protection!
MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED
After ingestion: May cause irritation. Rapidly absorbed on empty stomach.

ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE CONTROLS
No data available
The substance is used under strictly controlled conditions during its whole lifecycle as described under Article 17(3) and Section 2.1 of the Guidance for Intermediates. The substance should be rigorously contained by technical means during its whole lifecycle and procedural and control technologies should be in place in order to minimize emissions and any resulting exposure as described under Article 17(3). Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used in cases of accidents and where waste is generated. The PPE may be also used as a good practice.

Disposal considerations
Waste disposal according to official state regulations.
Handle contaminated packaging in the same way as the substance itself.
The product will be disposed of in accordance with the regulation currently in force and specifically with:
- Directive 2008/98/EC, of 19 November 2008 on waste and the corresponding national regulations which transpose this Directive.
- Directive 94/62/EC, of 20 December 1994 on packaging and packaging waste and its modifications and corresponding national regulations which transpose this Directive.
- Commission Decision 2001/118/EC of 16 January 2001 amending Decision 2000/532/EC as regards the list of wastes
and any other regulation currently in force in the European Community, National and Local with regard to the correct disposal of this material and its empty containers.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
