Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
Immediately remove contaminated clothing. If the patient is likely to become unconscious, place and
transport in stable sideways position (recovery position). First aid personnel should pay attention to
their own safety.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. Immediately inhale corticosteroid dose
aerosol.
On skin contact:
Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.
On contact with eyes:
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open,
consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion:
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
Note to physician:
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific
antidote. Pulmonary odema prophylaxis. Medical monitoring for at least 24 hours.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
dry extinguishing media, carbon dioxide, foam
Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:
water
Specific hazards:
hydrogen chloride
The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Fire debris must be disposed of in accordance with offical regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Breathing protection required. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.
Environmental precautions:
Do not empty into drains.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up:
For large amounts: Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder,
kieselguhr). Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Handling and storage
Handling
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Protect against moisture.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Storage
Further information on storage conditions: Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.
Storage stability:
Storage duration: 12 Months

Exposure controls / personal protection
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Self-contained breathing apparatus.
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,
corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove
manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.
temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice
may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
Eye protection:
Tightly fitting safety goggles (cage goggles) (e.g. EN 166) and face shield.
General safety and hygiene measures:
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Wearing of closed work
clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.
Stability and reactivity
Thermal decomposition: approx. 180 °C
Substances to avoid:
bases, amines, amine compounds, water
Hazardous reactions:
Exothermic reaction.
Hazardous decomposition products:
hydrogen chloride
Disposal considerations
Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.
A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to
dependence on the usage.
The waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) must be specified in
cooperation with disposal agency/manufacturer/authorities.
Contaminated packaging:
Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for recycling
after being thoroughly cleaned.
