Administrative data
First-aid measures
IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing.
In case of unconsciousness, place the victim in recovery position and call medical assistance.
If breathing is difficult, immediately call medical assistance. Give oxygen or artificial respiration.
After skin contact:
IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water for 15 minutes.
Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse.
If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
After eyes contact:
IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
After ingestion:
Call medical assistance.
Never induce vomiting an unconscious person to avoid any respiratory tracts obstruction. In this case, place the person in recovery position and keep warm until the arrival of the medical assistance.
If person is conscious, rinse out mouth with water.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder or polymer foam.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water jet
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Substance is lightly flammable. However, in a fire, it can decompose, giving off toxic fumes of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
Advice for firefighters / responders:
Firefighting responders should equip themselves with a complete body and heat resistant protective equipment and self contained breathing apparatus (EN 137 / EN 14593 / EN 14594).
Water should be applied to cool containers of the substance that are exposed to flames.
Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources.
Accidental release measures
Ventilate contaminated area.
Avoid contact with the released substance.
Avoid inhalation.
Remove from spill site any person whose presence is not necessary. Keep upwind.
The others should wear protective cloth, breathing apparatus, chemical safety goggles, rubber boots and rubber gloves.
Environmental precautions:
Shut off leaks if without risk. Prevent liquid from entering the environment.
Do not flush spill area with plenty of water before picking-up, to avoid contamination of the watercourses and low areas.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Pump the largest quantity of spilled product in a drum (use an explosion proof pump). This product should be disposed.
Absorb the last traces of liquid on sand or vermiculite and place in tightly closed and labelled drums/containers for disposal.
Wash spill site with plenty of water after material pickup is complete.
Handling and storage
Handle and use only in well-ventilated areas.
Safety shower and eyewash fountain should be available.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes.
Avoid inhalation.
Avoid repeated or prolonged exposure.
Wash thoroughly after handling this substance. Keep apart working clothes.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Technical measures: The ground of the storage area must be waterproof and form retention basin.
Storage conditions: Keep containers tightly closed. The product should be stored under nitrogen or argon to avoid carbonatation.Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area.
Incompatible materials: Keep away from oxidising agents or strong bases.

Exposure controls / personal protection
The use of local exhaust is recommended to avoid vapour emissions.
Eye protection:
Chemical safety goggles with side shields (EN 166)
Body protection / Skin protection:
Suitable protective body clothing (EN 14605 in case of splashes)
Hand protection:
In case of limited contact or for a protection against splashes: gloves with minimum protection index of 2 (permeation time > 30 min according to EN 374-3): nitrile rubber, PVC
In case of direct prolonged exposure: gloves with minimum protection index of 4 (permeation time > 120 min according to EN 374-3): butyl rubber, PVC
Respiratory protection:
Respirator (EN 140 / EN 136) with filter (EN 14387/A1 – Type A) when risk of inhalation.
Self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 137 / EN 14593 / EN 14594) in case of important risk or prolonged exposure, for example in case of fire fighting.
Stability and reactivity
Chemical Stability: The substance is stable at room temperature and under normal storage and handling conditions
Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reaction has been identified.
Conditions to avoid: No data available.
Incompatible materials: Strong oxidizing agents and strong bases.
Hazardous decomposition products: toxic fumes of carbon oxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
Decomposition in water: not concerned.
Disposal considerations
Product residues: Do not reject in natural environment.
Burn in an adequate incinerator.
Contaminated packaging: Empty containers/drums should be handled with the same precautions than the full ones.
Contaminated packaging have to be disposed in a site approved for chemical and hazardous waste or burned in a specialised burning centre.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
