First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures
In case of inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. Seek medical treatment in case of troubles.
Following skin contact: Immediately wipe affected skin area with paper towel or cloth.
Thoroughly wash skin with soap and water. In case of skin irritation, consult a physician.
After eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids
apart. Subsequently consult an ophthalmologist.
After swallowing: Rinse mouth with water. Immediately get medical attention.
Never give an unconscious person anything through the mouth.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
After eye contact: Mild irritant.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:
Suitable extinguishing media:Foam, extinguishing powder, carbon dioxide.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
In case of fire may be liberated: silicon dioxide, traces of incompletely burned carbon compounds, nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

Advice for firefighters:
Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to protect skin and eyes.
Additional information: Hazchem-Code: -
Use fine water spray to cool endangered containers.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Remove all sources of ignition.
Wear protective equipment. Avoid contact with the substance.
Provide adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapours.

Environmental precautions
Do not allow to penetrate into soil, waterbodies or drains.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Absorb with liquid-binding material (e.g. sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal
binding agents) and place in closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling
Advices on safe handling: When not in use, keep containers tightly closed.
Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
Avoid contact with the substance.
Provide adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapours.
Precautions against fire and explosion:
Keep away from sources of ignition. - No smoking.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storerooms and containers:
Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place.
Keep away from heat sources, sparks and open flames.
