Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

- General advice:

Remove from exposure, lie down. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Victim to lie down in the recovery position, cover and keep him warm. First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and use the recommended protective clothing

- Following inhalation:

Move to fresh air. Call a physician immediately.

- Following ingestion:

Rinse mouth. Drink plenty of water. Call a physician immediately.

- Most important symptoms and effects: irritant effects, Shortness of breath, Allergic reactions, Cough

Fire-fighting measures

- Suitable extinguishing media:

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local cir-cumstances and the surrounding environment. Water, Foam, Dry chemical, Carbon dioxide (CO2)

- Unsuitable extinguishing media:

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Can be released in case of fire: Carbon oxides, Nitrogen oxides (NOx), Hydrogen cyanide (hydrocyanic acid), Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.

- Advice for fire fighter:

 Special protective equipment for firefighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 133) complete suit protecting against chemicals

 Further information: Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains.

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions:

Wear personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Ensure adequate ventilation. Suppress vapours with waterspray.

- Environmental precautions:

Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Wear personal protective equipment. Large spills should be collected mechanically (remove by pumping) for disposal. Clean-up methods - small spillage. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

- Precautions for safe handling:

Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Provide adequate precautions, such as electrical grounding and bonding, or inert atmospheres. Breathing must be protected when large quantities are de-canted without local exhaust ventilation. Keep container closed when not in use.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Vapours may form explosive mixture with air.

Hygiene measures: General industrial hygiene practice. Wash hands and face before breaks and immediately after handling the product. Keep working clothes separately.

- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

Requirements for storage areas and containers: Keep tightly closed in a dry and cool place. Keep in a well-ventilated place. Protect from heat and direct sunlight. Joint-less smooth floor

Advice on common storage: Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Advice on Segregation
