First-aid measures
Do not leave affected person unattended. Remove victim out of the danger area. Keep affected person warm, still and covered. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice. In case of unconsciousness place person in the recovery position. Never give anything by mouth.
Following inhalation : If breathing is irregular or stopped, immediately seek medical assistance and start first aid actions. In case of respiratory tract irritation, consult a physician. Provide fresh air.
Following skin contact : Wash with plenty of soap and water.
Following eye contact : Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 10 minutes, holding the eyelids apart.
Following ingestion : Rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Do NOT induce vomiting.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms and effects are not known to date.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed : None

Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media : water spray, alcohol resistant foam, BC-powder, carbon dioxide (CO2)
Unsuitable extinguishing media : water jet
Hazardous combustion products : nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Advice for firefighters : In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Co-ordinate firefighting measures to the fire surroundings. Do not allow firefighting water to enter drains or water courses. Collect contaminated firefighting waterseparately. Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.

Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency personnel : Remove persons to safety.
For emergency responders : Wear breathing apparatus if exposed to vapours/dust/spray/gases.
Environmental precautions : Keep away from drains, surface and ground water. Retain contaminated washing water and dispose of it. If substance has entered a water course or sewer, inform the responsible authority.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up : Advices on how to contain a spill : Covering of drains.
Advices on how to clean up a spill : Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Collect spillage (sawdust. , kieselgur (diatomite), sand, universal binder).
Appropriate containment techniques : Use of adsorbent materials.
Other information relating to spills and releases : Place in appropriate containers for disposal. Ventilate affected area.

Handling and storage
Measures to prevent fire as well as aerosol and dust generation : Use local and general ventilation. Use only in well-ventilated areas.
Advice on general occupational hygiene : Wash hands after use. Do not eat, drink and smoke in work areas. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Never keep food or drink in the vicinity of chemicals. Never place chemicals in containers that are normally used for food or drink. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.
Incompatible substances or mixtures
Observe hints for combined storage.
Packaging compatibilities
Only packagings which are approved (e.g. acc. to ADR) may be used.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Appropriate engineering controls : General ventilation.
Eye/face protection : Wear eye/face protection.
Hand protection : Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. In the case of wanting to use the gloves again, clean them before taking off and air them well. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.
Other protection measures : Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Respiratory protection : In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection.
