Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice: Have the product container, label or Safety Data Sheet with you when calling the emergency number, a poison control center or physician, or going for treatment.
If inhaled: Move the victim to fresh air.
If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Keep patient warm and at rest. Call a physician or poison control centre immediately.
In case of skin contact: Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off immediately with plenty of water.
If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
In case of eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses. Immediate medical attention is required.
If swallowed: If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. Do NOT induce vomiting.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Extinguishing media - small fires. Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Extinguishing media - large fires: Alcohol-resistant foam or Water spray
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards during firefighting: As the product contains combustible organic components, fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous products of combustion.
Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health.
Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information: Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions: Refer to protective measures
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up: Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations.
Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Clean with detergents. Avoid solvents. Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling: No special protective measures against fire required. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storage areas and containers: No special storage conditions required. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep out of the reach of children. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure controls
Engineering measures
Containment and/or segregation is the most reliable technical protection measure if exposure cannot be eliminated.
The extent of these protection measures depends on the actual risks in use. Maintain air concentrations below occupational exposure standards. Where necessary, seek additional occupational hygiene advice.
Personal protective equipment
Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles Always wear eye protection when the potential for inadvertent eye contact with the product cannot be excluded. Equipment should conform to EN 166
Hand protection
Material: Nitrile rubber
Break through time: >480 min
Glove thickness: 0.5 mm
Wear protective gloves. The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time. The break through time depends amongst other things on the material, the thickness and the type of glove and therefore has to be measured for each case. Gloves should be discarded and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
Skin and body protection: Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Wear as appropriate: Impervious clothing
Respiratory protection : When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
Suitable respiratory equipment: Respirator with combination filter for vapour/particulate (EN 141)
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.
Filter type: Combined particulates and organic vapour type (A-P)
Protective measures: The use of technical measures should always have priority over the use of personal protective equipment. When selecting personal protective equipment, seek appropriate professional advice.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
None reasonably foreseeable.
Chemical stability
Stable under normal conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Hazardous reactions: No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.
Conditions to avoid
Conditions to avoid: No decomposition if used as directed.
Incompatible materials
Materials to avoid: None known.
Hazardous decomposition products
No hazardous decomposition products are known.
Disposal considerations
Product : Where possible recycling is preferred to disposal or incineration. It must undergo special treatment, e.g. at suitable disposal site, to comply with local regulations.
Contaminated packaging : Dispose of as unused product.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
