Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
4.1 General informations
Move victim out of danger zone. Position and transport victim on their side. In case of
respiratory distress, bring into semi-upright, seated position. Remove contaminated
clothing immediatley and dispose off safely. Put victim at rest, cover with a blanket
and keep warm. Do not leave victim unattended. In case of accident or if you feel
unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show safety data sheet if possible).
Symptoms of poisoning may develop several hours following exposure. Victim should
be under medical observation for at least 48 hours after exposure.
Medical advice absolutely requred!
4.2 In case of inhalation
Provide fresh air. In case of breathing difficulties administer oxygen. No mouth-tomouth
or mouth-to-nose resuscitation.Use respiratory bag or oxygen resuscitation
apparatus.
4.3 In case of skin contact
Remove contaminated clothing immediatley and dispose off safely. After contact with
skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. In cases of frostbite rinse with ample
water. Do not remove clothing.
4.4 In case of 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.
4.5 In case of ingestion
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Let water be swallowed in little sips (dilution
effect). Do not allow a neutralization agent to be drunk. Do not induce vomiting.
4.6 Self-protection of the first aider
First aid assistant: Pay attention to self-protection! No mouth-to-mouth or mouth-tonose
resuscitation.Use respiratory bag or oxygen resuscitation apparatus.
4.7 Information to physician
4.7.1 Routes of exposure
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation.
4.7.2 Hazards
Effects of short-term exposure:
Rapid evaporation of the liquid may cause frostbite. The
substance is irritating to the eyes and the respiratory tract.
Inhalation may cause asthma-like reactions.
Effects of long-term or repeated
exposure:
Repeated or prolonged inhalation exposure may cause
asthma.
Notes: -
4.7.3 Symptoms
In case of inhalation:
Cough. Shortness of breath. Sore throat. Laboured
breathing.
In case of skin contact: ON CONTACT WITH LIQUID: FROSTBITE.
In case of eye contact: Redness. Pain.
In case of ingestion: -
4.7.4 Treatment
First Aid, decontamination, treatment of symptoms.
Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Suitable extinguishing media
Co-ordinate fire-fighting measures to the fire surroundings.
5.2 Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons
-
5.3 Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself,
combustion products, resulting gases
In case of fire may be liberated:
Sulphur dioxide (SO2). Sulphur trioxide.
5.4 Special protective equipment for fire-fighters
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing.In case
of fire: use acidproof devices.
5.5 Additional information
Intervention Actions-General
PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD - Warn people nearby to stay indoors with doors and
windows closed. Stop any ventilation. Consider evacuation of people in immediate
danger. Keep upwind. Put on protective equipment before entering danger area.
Minimise number of personnel in risk area. Warn people to leave and not to re-enter
basements, sewers or other confined spaces. Keep upwind. Put on protective
equipment before entering danger area.
Intervention Actions-Fire (involving the substance)
May react in a fire to produce toxic or irritant gases or fumes. Heating of container(s)
will cause pressure rise with risk of bursting and immediate release of expanding toxic
and corrosive vapour cloud creating a pressure wave. Contact with liquid will cause
frostbite and severe damage to eyes.
May attack metals and produce hydrogen gas which may form explosive mixture with
air. The gas may be invisible and may enter sewers, basements or confined spaces.
Keep container(s) cool with water. Work from protected position to reduce risk to
personnel. Use unmanned monitors or lances. Use water spray to knock down fire
fumes if possible. Avoid unnecessary run-off of extinguishing media which may cause
pollution.

Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions (spillage)
Wear personal protection equipment.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Stop leaks if possible. Contain spillage by any means available.
Cover drains. Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil. Do not empty into drains or the
aquatic environment.
6.3 Methods for cleaning up
Refer to chapter 6.4
6.4 Additional information
Evacuate danger area! Personal protection: complete protective clothing including
self-contained breathing apparatus. Consult an expert! Ventilation. NEVER direct
water jet on liquid.
Handling and storage
7.1 Handling
7.1.1 Advices on safe handling
Protective measures
Wear personal protection equipment. Refer to chapter 8. Do not eat, drink, smoke or
sneeze at the workplace.
Dangerous areas must be delimited and marked with appropriate warning and safety
signs. In the immediate working surroundings there must be: Emergency spray
installed. provide eye wash and label its location conspicuously. provide sufficient
washing facilities. Fill only into labelled container. Instruction on the hazards and the
protective measures using instruction manual are required with signature.
Working areas must be arranged in such a manner that they can be cleaned at all
times.
7.1.2 Technical measures
Measures to prevent aerosol and dust generation
All work processes must always be designed so that the following is excluded:
Inhalation. Skin contact. Eye contact.
Transfer and handle product only in closed systems.
Measures required to protect the environment
Cover drains. In case of gas being released or leakage into waters, ground or the
drainage system, the appropriate authorities must be informed. Use a water spray jet
to knock down vapours/gases/mists. Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil. Do not
empty into drains or the aquatic environment.
7.1.3 Specific requirements or handling rules
The floor should be leak tight, jointless and not absorbent.
7.1.4 Precautions against fire and explosion
Usual measures for fire prevention.
7.2 Storage
7.2.1 Technical measures and storage conditions
Keep container tightly closed. Keep/Store only in original container.
