Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General information: Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately
After inhalation: Take medical treatment.
After skin contact: In case of contact with skin wash off immediately with soap and water
After eye contact: In case of contact with eyes rinse thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water and seek medical advice
After swallowing: Call in a physician immediately and show him the Safety Data Sheet.
Induce vomiting in case medical help is not readily available and when the patient is concious. (Vomit should not go into the respiratoy air tract).
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing agents: extinguishing measures to suit surroundings, water spray jet, foam, carbon dioxide
For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: water with a full water jet
Special hazards from the substance itself, its combustion products or from its vapours:
In case of fires, hazardous combustion gases are formed: Carbon monoxide (CO), Hydrogen chloride (HCl), Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Special protective equipment for firefighting: In case of fire, wear respiratory protection
Additional information: Cool endangered containers with water jet spray
Accidental release measures
Person related saftey precautions: wear protective clothing
Methods for cleaning up/taking up:
Take up with suitable equipment and if necessary collect in closed containers. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly with water and detergents, observing environmental regulations. When picked up, treat material as prescribed under heading "Disposal".
Containers in which spilt substance has been collected must be adequately labelled
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling: Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid spilling, spraying or splashing. Avoid exposure - Obtain special instructions before use.
Restricted to professional users
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed

Exposure controls / personal protection
During its lifecycle the substance is handled under strictly controlled conditions and is rigorously contained in accordance with Art. 18.
Based on the knowledge of the basic hazards to humans and environment technical, organizational and PPE measures are taken to minimize release and exposure of this substance. National regulatory requirements for the handling of chemicals are also fulfilled. Employees are regularly trained. The efficiency of these measures is controlled e.g. by workplace measurements. In case of deviations these measures are adapted.
General protective measures: Do not inhale dust. Contact with eyes and skin must be avoided
Hygiene measures: Keep away from foodstuffs and beverages. Wash hands before breaks and after work.
Respiratory protection : Self-contained breathing apparatus. Short term: filter apparatus, Filter P3
Hand protection : Observe the information of the glove manufacturers on permeability and breakthrough times and other workplace requirements
Butyl rubber gloves: Minimum thickness / gloves >= 0,7 mm
For short-term exposure (splash protection): PVC/ Nitrile rubber gloves. Minimum thickness / gloves >= 1,2 mm
Eye protection : safety glasses/face shield
Body protection : protective working clothes. In case of larger spillage impermeable protective overalls
Stability and reactivity
Thermal decomposition/conditions to be avoided: no decomposition if used according to specifications
Dangerous products pof decomposition: Carbon monoxide, Nitrous gases
Disposal considerations
Product: Special waste incineration plant, after consultation with operators
Uncleaned packaging: Packaging that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of as product waste
