First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

After inhalation: fresh air.

After skin contact: wash off with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing.

After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water with the eyelid held wide open. Call in ophthalmologist if necessary.

After swallowing: caution if victim vomits. Risk of aspiration! Keep airways free. Pulmonary failure possible after aspiration of vomit. Call a physician immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

irritant effects

agitation, Diarrhoea, Vomiting, Headache, narcosis

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

No information available.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media

Water, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry powder

Unsuitable extinguishing media

For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Combustible

Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.

Pay attention to flashback.

Forms explosive mixtures with air at elevated temperatures.

Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.

Fire may cause evolution of:

hydrogen bromide

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters

Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.

Further information

Remove container from danger zone and cool with water. Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet. Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Advice for non-emergency personnel: Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.

Advice for emergency responders: Protective equipment see SDS section 8.

Environmental precautions

Do not let product enter drains. Risk of explosion.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Cover drains. Collect, bind, and pump off spills. Observe possible material restrictions (see SDS sections 7 and 10). Take up with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb® ). Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.

Reference to other sections

Indications about waste treatment see SDS section 13.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling

Observe label precautions.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharge.

Hygiene measures

Immediately change contaminated clothing. Apply preventive skin protection. Wash hands and face after working with substance.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Storage conditions

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Store at +15°C to +25°C.

Specific end use(s)

Apart from the uses mentioned in SDS section 1.2 no other specific uses are stipulated.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Engineering measures

Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment.

See SDS section 7.1.

Individual protection measures

Protective clothing needs to be selected specifically for the workplace, depending on concentrations and quantities of the hazardous substances handled. The chemical resistance of the protective equipment should be enquired at the respective supplier.

Eye/face protection

Safety glasses

Hand protection

full contact:

Glove material:

Viton (R)

Glove thickness:

0,70 mm

Break through time:

> 480 min

splash contact:

Glove material:

butyl-rubber

Glove thickness:

0,70 mm

Break through time:

> 30 min

The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 890 Vitoject® (full contact), KCL 898 Butoject® (splash contact).

The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types.

This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet<(>,<)> supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN374 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves.

Other protective equipment

Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing

Respiratory protection

required when vapours/aerosols are generated.

Recommended Filter type: Filter A-(P2)

The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.

Environmental exposure controls

Do not let product enter drains.

Risk of explosion.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Vapour/air-mixtures are explosive at intense warming.

Chemical stability

The product is chemically stable under standard ambient conditions (room temperature) .

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Violent reactions possible with:

Oxidizing agents, peroxi compounds, Alkali metals, Alkaline earth metals

Conditions to avoid

Heating.

A range from approx. 15 Kelvin below the flash point is to be rated as critical.

Incompatible materials

no information available

Hazardous decomposition products

in the event of fire: See SDS section 5
