Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible). Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.
If inhaled:
Remove from exposure, lie down. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Monitor breathing, give oxygen if necessary. Consult a physician.
In case of skin contact:
Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Consult a physician.
In case of eye contact:
Rinse with plenty of water.
If swallowed:
Consult a physician. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
Water spray, Dry powder, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Specific hazards during firefighting
Dangerous gases or fumes may occur in case of fire.
Advice for firefighters:
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Further information:
Standard procedure for chemical fires.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Use personal protective equipment.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions:
Avoid subsoil penetration.

Exposure controls / personal protection
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Hand protection: The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is
different from one producer to the other., Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are
provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used,
such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time., Be aware that in daily use the durability of a chemical resistant
protective glove can be notably shorter than the break through time measured according to EN 374, due to the numerous outside influences (e.g. temperature).
gloves suitable for permanent contact:Material: Nitrile rubber/nitrile latex;Break through time: >= 480 min;Material thickness: 0.35 mm
Material: butyl-rubber:Break through time: >= 480 min;Material thickness: 0.5 mm;
Eye protection: Safety glasses
Skin and body protection: Wear suitable protective equipment.
Hygiene measures: Avoid contact with eyes. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Keep away
from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
Protective measures: Avoid contact with eyes. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
