First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Inhalation IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If
experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTRE or doctor/physician.
Skin Contact IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of water and soap. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical
advice/attention.
Eye Contact IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if
present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical
advice/attention.
Ingestion Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. IF SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTRE or
doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: May cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: Treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, fire extinguishing powder or water spray.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: None known
Advice for firefighters
Positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and structural firefighters’ protective clothing will provide adequate
protection.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Avoid generation of dust and aerosols. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist.
Environmental precautions: Contain spill.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for Containment: Cover with absorbent or contain. Collect and dispose.
Methods for cleaning up: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Contain and/or absorb spill with inert material, then place in suitable container. Prevent runoff from entering drains, sewers or waterways.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Avoid generation of dust and aerosols. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist. Wear suitablegloves and eye/face protection.
Hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing is recommended. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store at temperatures not exceeding 25 °C/ 77 °F. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Protect from
light. Keep/store only in original container

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters Exposure limits: Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.
DNEL/DMEL - Workers
The substance does not require registration according to REACH Inhalation
DNEL/DMEL - General population
The substance does not require registration according to REACH Oral/Inhalation
Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC): No data available
Exposure controls Engineering measures: Transfer via enclosed lines. Formulate in enclosed or ventilated mixing vessels. Carefully handle the substance to minimise releases of dust/aerosols.
Personal protective equipment
Eye/face Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Hand Protection: Use any protective gloves that meet the minimum requirements of EN420 when handling solid product. Gloves meeting the additional requirements of EN374-2 should be worn when handling liquid products. Practical experience has shown that gloves of nitrile rubber, butyl rubber, latex, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC)offer sufficient protection. There are no additional material, thickness and breakthrough time requirements. Chemical resistant gloves, as defined by EN374-3 are not required.
Skin and Body Protection: Wear protective gloves and protective clothing.
Respiratory Protection: Ensure adequate ventilation. If exposure limits are exceeded, approved respiratory protection should be worn.
Recommended Filter type:P3 or Particulates filter conforming to EN 143
Environmental exposure controls: Avoid release to the environment.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity: Not expected.
Chemical stability: Stable under normal conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions: None under normal processing.
Conditions to avoid: Avoid dust formation.
Incompatible materials: None known.
Hazardous decomposition products: None known.
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Waste disposal methods: Dispose of wastes in an approved waste disposal facility. Dispose of contents/containers in accordance with local regulations.
Contaminated packaging: Dispose of empty containers and wastes safely. Dispose of waste product or used containers according to local regulations.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
