First-aid measures

Following inhalation: Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Following skin contact: Wash with plenty of soap and water.

Following eye contact: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.

Following ingestion: If accidentally swallowed rinse the mouth with plenty of water (only if the person is conscious) and obtain immediate medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: not known

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: none

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media: Product itself does not burn. Co-ordinate fire-fighting measures to the fire surroundings.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: Use water spray for cooling containers. Heating up till decomposition forms hydrogen bromide and triethylamine.

Advice for firefighters: Do not inhale explosion and combustion gases.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Avoid contact with eyes. Use personal protection equipment. Remove persons to safety.

Environmental precautions: Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil. Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Collect in closed and suitable containers for disposal. Dispose of contents/container to industrial incineration plant.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Collect in closed and suitable containers for disposal. Clean contaminated objects and areas thoroughly observing environmental regulations. Ensure waste is collected and contained.

Personal protection equipment: see section Exposure controls / Personal protection

Disposal: see section Disposal considerations

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling: Wear appropriate eye/face protection. If handled uncovered, arrangements with local exhaust ventilation should be used if possible.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: No special fire protection measures are necessary. Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. See section Stability and Reactivity. No storage class.

Specific end uses: The substance should only be used in industrial settings or for professional use by skilled operators. The substance must not be supplied to the general public.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters: Occupational exposure limit value: none

Additional information on plant design: See Section Handling and Storage.

Personal protective equipment: Wear appropriate safety clothing and eye/face protection. Eye/face protection: Goggles

Protective measures: When using do not eat, drink, smoke, sniff. Wash hands before breaks and after work. Immediately remove any contaminated clothing, shoes or stockings.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: Stable at room temperature.

Chemical stability: The substance is stable under anticipated conditions of temperature and pressure. Decompostion takes place from temperatures above approx. 250°C.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: No hazardous polymerisation.

Conditions to avoid: Reaction takes place at temperatures above approx. 250°C.

Incompatible materials: The product develops bromine in contact with oxidising agents.

Hazardous decomposition products: Heating up till decomposition forms hydrogen bromide and triethylamine.

Disposal considerations

Product disposal / Packaging disposal: Dispose of according to legislation. Dispose of contents/container to industrial incineration plant.
