Further information : Standard procedure for chemical fires. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Please observe escape and rescue routes! Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must
be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions : Wear personal protective equipment. Unprotected persons must be kept away.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. The danger areas must be delimited and identified using relevant warning and safety signs.
Environmental precautions : Avoid release to the environment. Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water
Methods for cleaning up : Use mechanical handling equipment. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly, observing
environmental regulations. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with the regulations. Containers in which spilt substance has been collected must be adequately labelled.
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Handle with care and avoid dust formation.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Engineering measures: Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Protective measures : Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist.
Eye protection : Depending on the risk, wear sufficient eye protection (safety glasses with side protection or goggles, and if necessary,
face shield.)
Hand protection: Wear appropriate protective gloves. Choose gloves to protect hands against chemicals depending on the concentration and quantity of the hazardous substance and specific to place of work. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact). Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Gloves should be discarded and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough. Gloves must be rinsed thoroughly after use.
Suitable: Fluorinated rubber gloves
Skin and body protection : Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific workplace, e.g. apron, boots, protective suit (EN 14605, EN ISO 13982-1, EN 13034).
Respiratory protection : Use respirator when performing operations involving potential exposure to vapour of the product. In the case of dust or aerosol formation use respirator with an approved filter. Respirator with combination filter for vapour/particulate (EN 141), ABEK-P3-filter

Chemical stability: No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
Hazardous reactions : Hydrolysis. Reacts with water under emission of toxic gases (HCl).
Conditions to avoid : Protect from moisture.
Materials to avoid : Water, Iron, Strong bases
Hazardous decomposition products: Hydrogen chloride
No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
Disposal considerations
