FIRST AID MEASURES
Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If
not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs,
provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. Get
medical attention if symptoms occur. If unconscious, place in
recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain
an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or
waistband. In case of inhalation of decomposition products in a fire,
symptoms may be delayed. The exposed person may need to be
kept under medical surveillance for 48 hours.
Ingestion:
Wash out mouth with water. Move exposed person to fresh air.
Keep person warm and at rest. If material has been swallowed and
the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to
drink. Stop if the exposed person feels sick as vomiting may be
dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low
so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention if
symptoms occur. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical
attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight
clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Skin Contact:
Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
Eye Contact.

Handling and storage

Manufacture and use of this chemical intermediate takes place under strictly controlled conditions, as described in Art. 17/18 REACH. The substance is rigorously contained during manufacturing and use and appropriate risk management measures including PPE (i.g. during charging or sampling) are applied. Occupational exposure is reduced to a minimum and well controlled by measurements. A management system covering all general aspects of a chemical production is in place, especially cleaning and maintenance of plants and equipment. An authorisation scheme based on instructions covering the whole process ensures that only trained and authorised staff handles the substance.

Handling:
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment .
Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where
this material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash
hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Do not ingest.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing dust.
Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from
a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty
containers retain product residue and can be hazardous.
Storage:
Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original
container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and wellventilated
area, away from incompatible materials (see section 10)
and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until
ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully
resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in
unlabelled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure limit values : Not available.

Recommended monitoring procederes:
If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal,
workplace atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to
determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control
measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory protective
equipment. Reference should be made to European Standard EN
689 for methods for the assessment of exposure by inhalation to
chemical agents and national guidance documents for methods for
the determination of hazardous substances.
Risk management measures
Occupational exposure controls
Technical measures:
Use only with adequate ventilation. If user operations generate dust,
fumes, gas, vapour or mist, use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to
airborne contaminants below any recommended or statutory limits.

Personal protection measures
Respiratory protection:
Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with
an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or
anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe
working limits of the selected respirator.
