First-aid measures

General information
In the case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible). Ensue that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.

Description of first aid measures
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air. If the affect person is not breathing, apply artificial respiration.
Skin Contact
Wash off with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Eye Contact
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eylids, for atleast 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
IngestionIF SWALLOWED; Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. Have victim rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Never give anything by mouth to a victim who is unconscious or is having convulsions. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Skin
Prolonged and/or repeated skin contact may result in mild irritation or redness.
Eyes
Contact with eyes may cause irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tears, redness, swelling, and blurred vision.
Inhalation
Inhalation of vapours in high concentration may cause shortness of breath (lung oedema).
Ingestion
Ingestion can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed.
In case of shortness of breath, give oxygen. Keep victim warm. Symptoms may be delayed. Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

General fire hazard
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame.

Suitable extinguishing media
Water Fog

Unsuitable extinguishing media
Water. Do not use water jet. DO not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous combustion products
Combustion products include fumes, smoke, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Irritating and toxic gasses or fumes may be released during a fire.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazard
None known

Advice for Firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Firefighters should wear full protective clothing including self contained breathing apparatus.
Special firefighting procedures
Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure demand breathing apparatus, and face mask.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency personnel
Not available.
For emergency responders
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Isolate the area of spill or leak for at least 10 to 25 meters in all directions.
If any large container is involved in fire, isolate for at least 800 meters in all directions.

Environmental precautions
Do not let product enter drains. Do not flush into surface water.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Extinguishing all flames in the vicinity. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.

Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.

Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.

Reference to other sections: Section 8: Exposure controls/personal protection.

Effects of low concentrations on aquatic life are not known. May be dangerous if it enters nearby water intakes; notify operators.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Do not get this material in contact with skin or eyes. Use non-sparking tools when opening or closing containers. Do not breathe gas/fumes/vapour /spray. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Use this product with adequate ventilation.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatiabilities.
Vapors may form explosive mixture with air. Vapors are heavier than air and will collect and stay in low areas. Vapors may travel long distances to ignition sources and flash back. Vapours in confined ares (e.g. tanks, sewers, buildings) may explode when exposed to fire. Irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Toxic products of combustion may include carbon monoxide.

Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep container tightly closed. Keep tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store away from strong oxidizers. Keep out of the reach of children.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Short-term effects: SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. Vapor: Irritating to eyes, nose, and throat. May be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Move victim to fresh air. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED, give artificail respiration. IF breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Liquid: MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN. IRRITATING TO SKIN AND EYES. IF IN EYES: immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Remove and double bag contaminated clothing and shoes at the site. Wash skin wiht soap and water. IF SWALLOWED: Do nothing except keep victim warm. Do not induce vomiting.

Personal protective equipment (PPE): B-Level PPE. Approved respirator, chemical safety goggles, chemical-resistant gloves.
Vapor (gas) irritant characteristics: Eye and respiratory tract irritant. Vapors cause moderate irritation such that personnel will find high concentrations unpleasant. The effect is temporary.

Liquid or solid irritation characteristic: Eye and skin irritant. If spilled on clothing and allowed to remain, may cause smarting and reddening of skin.

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4). Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site. Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every affected Distributor and Downstream Processor/User of the Registrant´s intermediate.
