In case of eye contact: Flush eyes with water as a precaution.

If swallowed: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Hazardous properties cannot be excluded but are unlikely when the product is handled appropriately.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media

Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Exposure controls / personal protection

Appropriate engineering controls

General industrial hygiene practice. Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of

personal protective equipment.

Personal protective equipment

Eye/face protection

Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards

such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin protection

The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and
