Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
If inhaled
- In case of accident by inhalation: remove casualty to fresh air and keep at rest.
- Victim to lie down in the recovery position, cover and keep him warm.
- Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.
- If symptoms persist, call a physician.
In case of eye contact
- Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.
- Immediate medical attention is required.
In case of skin contact
- Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
- Wash off with soap and water.
- If symptoms persist, call a physician.
If swallowed
- Consult a physician.
- Take victim immediately to hospital.
- If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).
- Do NOT induce vomiting.
- Do not give anything to drink.
- Artificial respiration and/or oxygen may be necessary.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
- Powder
- Foam
- Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Extinguishing media which shall not be used for safety reasons
- Water spray jet
Special exposure hazards in a fire
- Flammable liquid and vapour.
- Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters
- Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
- Full protective flameproof clothing
- Wear chemical resistant oversuit
- Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Other information
- Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition.
- Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
- Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
- Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Environmental precautions
- Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
- If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.
Methods for cleaning up
- Dam up.
- Soak up with inert absorbent material.
- Prevent product from entering drains.
- Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
Handling and storage
Handling
- Used in closed system
- Use only in well-ventilated areas.
- Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
- Heating can release vapours which can be ignited.
- To avoid ignition of vapours by static electricity discharge, all metal parts of the equipment must be grounded.
- When transferring from one container to another apply earthing measures and use conductive hose material.
- Preferably transfer by pump or gravity.
- Do not use sparking tools.
- Keep away from Incompatible products.
Storage
- Store in original container.
- Keep container closed.
- Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place.
- Keep in a bunded area.
- Keep away from Incompatible products.
- Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking.
- Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.
Packaging material
- Steel drum
