Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin vigorously with water and soap or a suitable skin cleaner. NEVER use solvents or
thinners.
Ingestion.
If accidentally ingested, seek immediate medical attention. Keep calm. NEVER induce vomiting.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing methods.
Extinguisher powder or CO2. In case of more serious fires, also alcohol-resistant foam and water spray. Do not use a direct
stream of water to extinguish.
Special hazards arising from the substance.
Special risks.
Fire can cause thick, black smoke. As a result of thermal decomposition, dangerous products can form: carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide. Exposure to combustion or decomposition products can be harmful to your health.
Advice for firefighters.
Use water to cool tanks, cisterns, or containers close to the heat source or fire. Take wind direction into account. Prevent the
products used to fight the fire from going into drains, sewers, or waterways.
Fire protection equipment.
According to the size of the fire, it may be necessary to use protective suits against the heat, individual breathing equipment,
gloves, protective goggles or facemasks, and gloves.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures.
For exposure control and individual protection measures, see section 8.
Environmental precautions.
Product not classified as hazardous for the environment, avoid spillage as much as possible.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up.
The contaminated area should be immediately cleaned with an appropriate de-contaminator. Pour the decontaminator on the
remains in an opened container and let it act various days until no further reaction is produced.
