If vomiting occurs, lean victim forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration.
If feeling unwell immediately call a physician.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Irritations
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Water spray jet, alcohol resistant foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry extinguishing powder
Unsuitable extinguishing media
Full water jet
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Combustible, In general: For flammable organic substances dust explosion potential is assumed when finely dispersed in air.
Emission of irritating and toxic fumes and gases.
Hazardous combustion products: Carbon oxides, hydrogen chloride (HCl)
Advice for firefighters
In the dangerous zone wear self-contained breathing apparatus and suitable chemical resistant protective clothing.
Additional information
Suppress gases/vapours/mists with water spray jet.
Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. Do not allow entering drains or surface water.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Do not breathe dust. Use personal protection equipment.
Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil. Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Take up carefully when dry. For larger quantities: Use suitable dust binding material.
Provide adequate ventilation. Clean up affected area.
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling
If handled uncovered, arrangements with local exhaust ventilation have to be used. Avoid dust formation. Do not breathe dust.
Avoid contact with water/moisture.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Usual measures for fire prevention.
Requirements for storage rooms and vessels
Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Store dry. Store protected from light.
Store separated from strong oxidising agents.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Appropriate engineering controls
Provide sufficient ventilation and/or local exhaust system.
Protective and hygiene measures
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice: Do not eat, drink, and smoke. Wash hands before break and after work.
Remove contaminated, saturated clothing immediately.
Eye/face protection
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles. (DIN EN 166)
Hand protection
Wear suitable gloves. (EN ISO 374)
The quality of the protective gloves resistant to chemicals must be chosen as a function of the specific working place concentration and quantity of hazardous substances. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.
Due to missing tests no material recommendation can be given.
Skin protection
Choose suitable personal protection equipment dependent on substance concentration and amount specific for workplace. Chemical resistance should be clarified with the supplier.
Respiratory protection
In the presence of dust nuisance wearing a respiratory protection mask with filter P2 (EN143) is recommended. Maintenance, testing and change of the filter cartridges must be performed following the recommendations of the supplier.
Environmental exposure controls
Avoid release to the environment.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Any specific reactivity is not known.
Chemical stability
The substance is chemically stable under recommended conditions of storage, use and temperature.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Hazardous polymerisation does not occur.
Dust explosion capability can be assumed.

Heat, Humidity, UV-light
Incompatible materials
Oxidising agents,
strong bases, strong acids
Disposal considerations
Disposal recommendations
Chemicals and packages as waste must be disposed of in accordance with Directive 2008/98/EC and the respective national and local regulations. Consult your local or regional authorities.
Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Dispose of waste according to applicable legislation.
