Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General information
Personal protection for the First Aider.
Remove contaminated clothing.
Symptoms of poisoning may even occur after several hours; therefore medical observation for at least
48 hours after the accident.
If unconscious, place in recovery position and seek medical advice.
· After inhalation
Take affected persons into the open air and position comfortably
Supply fresh air. If required, provide artificial respiration. Keep patient warm.
Seek medical treatment.
With symptoms:
Call for medical help.
After skin contact
Immediately remove contaminated clothing.
Immediately wash with water and rinse thoroughly.
Or better;
Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly.
Seek medical treatment.
After wide skin contact:
Call for medical help.
· After eye contact
Use eye protection.
Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult Oculist.
· After swallowing
Rinse out mouth and then drink (two glasses at the most) water.
Do not induce vomiting.
Call for medical help.
Turn a vomiting person on the side if lying on the back.
If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Irritations after contact with eyes, skin and mucous membrane.
After inhalation:
Irritating to respiratory tract.
Coughing
Breathing difficulty (dyspnea)
After swallowing:
Irritations of mucous membranes in the mouth, pharynx, oesophagus and gastrointestinal tract.
Gastric or intestinal trouble
Systemic effects:
Headache
Dizziness
weakness
Somnolence.
Tremor
Cramp
Possible other symptoms are currently not known.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
· Suitable extinguishing agents
CO2, extinguishing powder or water fog. Fight larger fires with water fog or alcohol-resistant foam.
· For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents Water with a full water jet.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Formation of toxic and corrosive gases during heating or in case of fire.
Can be released in case of fire:
Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Advice for firefighters
· Protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Wear full protective suit.
· Additional information
Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter drains.
Cool endangered containers with water spray jet.
Heating causes a rise in pressure, risk of bursting.
Container explosion may occur under fire conditions.
Damp down gases/fumes/haze with water spray jet.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Put on breathing apparatus.
Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.
Keep away from sources of ignition.
Ensure adequate ventilation
Use explosion-proof apparatus / fittings and spark-proof tools.
Bring persons out of danger.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow to enter sewing systems, water bodies, groundwater or soil.
Inform respective authorities in case large quantities of the product reach water, sewage system or
soil.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Keep ignition sources away.
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Use explosion-proof apparatus / fittings and spark-proof tools.
Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders).
Clean up affected area.
May be recycled or disposed of in appropiate containers
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Keep containers tightly closed.
Prevent formation of aerosols.
Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace.
Ensure good interior ventilation, especially at floor level. (Fumes are heavier than air).
· Hygiene measures:
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feedinggstuff.
Instantly remove any soiled and impregnated garments.
Clean skin thoroughly immediately after handling the product.
Do not inhale gases / fumes / aerosols.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Do not eat, drink or smoke while working.
· Information about protection against explosions and fires:
Substance/product is flammable.
Forms explosive mixtures with air at elevated temperatures.
Fire fighting equipment must be available.
Protect from heat.
Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke.
Protect against electrostatic charges.
Use explosion-proof apparatus / fittings and spark-proof tools.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
· Storage
· Requirements to be met by storerooms and containers:
Store in original container if possible.
Provide solvent resistant, sealed floor.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters
· Components with critical values that require monitoring at the workplace: Not required.
Exposure controls
· Personal protective equipment
· General protective measures:
The usual precautionary measures should be adhered to in handling the chemicals.
Breathing equipment:
If used in closed systems or well-ventilated area breathing protection is not necessary.
Required when vapours, aerosol or mist are generated.
Protection of hands:
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
degradation
Preventive skin protection by use of skin-protecting agents is recommended.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
· Recommendation
Must not be disposed of together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage
system.
Disposal must be made according to official regulations.
· European waste catalogue
A waste code in accordance with the European Waste Catalogue (EWC) may not be assigned to this
product since it admits of a classification only when the consumer uses it for some purpose. In
agreement with the waste code must be determined regional waste disposal authority or company.
Uncleaned packagings:
· Recommendation: Disposal must be made according to official regulations.
