First-aid measures

* General advice : Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

- If inhaled : If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.

- If swallowed : Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician

Fire-fighting measures

- Suitable extinguishing media : Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture : Carbon oxides, Hydrogen chloride gas

- Advice for firefighters : Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.

- Further information : Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures : Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.

- Environmental precautions : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

- Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up : Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and

place in container for disposal according to local regulations.

Handling and storage

- Precautions for safe handling : Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.

- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities : Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are

opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Recommended storage temperature: 2 - 8 °C.

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 18(4) for transported isolated intermediate. Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management system is available at each site. Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every Downstream user of the intermediate.

Exposure controls / personal protection

- Eye/face protection : Tightly fitting safety goggles. Faceshield (8-inch minimum). Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

- Skin protection : Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.

The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

- Body Protection : Complete suit protecting against chemicals, Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing, The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

- Respiratory protection : Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air

respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 18(4) for transported isolated intermediate. Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management system is available at each site. Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every Downstream user of the intermediate.
