If aerosol or mists are formed:

If necessary: Provide with fresh air.

Skin contact:

Wash off with plenty of water and soap.

Eye contact:

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water keeping eyelid open.

In case of persistent discomfort: Consult an ophthalmologist.

None known

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

After absorbing large amounts of substance:

administration of activated charcoal.

Acceleration of gastrointestinal passage

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:       

Water spray jet

Foam

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Dry powder

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       High volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Standard procedure for chemical fires.

Advice for firefighters

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil or stretches of water.

Ensure there are sufficient retaining facilities for water used to extinguish fire.

Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

In case of fire: wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment.

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Environmental precautions

Do not allow entrance in sewage water, soil stretches of water, groundwater, drainage systems.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).

Transfer into suitable containers.

To be disposed of in compliance with existing regulations.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Application, processing: Provide good ventilation or extraction.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

Storage

Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place.

Protect from moisture.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Engineering measures

Provide adequate ventilation.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection

In case of dusts/vapours/aerosols being formed or if the limit values like TLV are exceeded:

use respiratory equipment with suitable filter (filter type ABEK) or wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Use only respiratory protection equipment with CE-symbol including four digit test number.

The filter class for the respirator must be suitable for the maximum expected contaminant concentration (gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when handling the product. If this concentration is exceeded, self-contained breathing apparatus must be used.

Note time limit for wearing respiratory protective equipment.

Hand protection

Glove material       for example, butyl-rubber

Material thickness       0,5 mm

Break through time       >= 480 min

Glove material       for example, Fluorinated rubber (Viton)

Material thickness       0,4 mm

Break through time       >= 480 min

Selection of protective gloves to meet the requirements of specific workplaces.

Suitability for specific workplaces should be clarified with protective glove manufacturers.

The information is based on our own tests, references from the literature and information from glove manufacturers, or derived by analogy with similar materials.

Please observe that the daily duration of usage of a chemical protective glove is in practice far shorter due to the many influencing factors (e.g. temperature, mechanical strain on the glove material) than the permeation time determined acc. EN 374.

Eye protection

Safety glasses

Skin and body protection

No special protective equipment required.

Hygiene measures

When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash face and/or hands before break and end of work.

Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Preventive skin protection is recommended.

Protective measures

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

The personal protective equipment used must meet the requirements of directive 89/686/EEC and amendments (CE certification).

If workplace exposure limits are exceeded and/or larger amounts are released (leakage, spilling, dust) the indicated respiratory protection should be used.

If there is the possibility of skin/eye contact, the indicated hand/eye/body protection should be used.

Do not breathe in vapours or aerosols.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Chemical stability

Stable under recommended storage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

No dangerous reactions known.

Conditions to avoid

Protect from moisture.In the presence of oxygen and heat, the ethanol forming during the reaction may produce acetaldehyde.

Material may form acetaldehyde when heated with inorganic pigments in the presence of air.

Incompatible materials

None known

Hazardous decomposition products

Ethanol in case of hydrolysis

Alcohol formed by hydrolysis lowers the flash point of the product.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Product

With respect to local regulations, e.g. dispose of to suitable waste incineration plant.

Uncleaned packaging

Packaging, that can not be reused after cleaning must be disposed or recycled in accordance with all federal, national and local regulations.

Incorrect disposal or reuse of this container is illegal and can be dangerous.

Other countries: observe the national regulations.

Waste Key Number

No waste key number as per the European Waste Types List can be assigned to this product, since such classification is based on the (as yet undetermined) use to which the product is put by the consumer.

The waste key number must be determined as per the European Waste Types List (decision on EU Waste Types List 2000/532/EC) in cooperation with the disposal firm / producing firm / official authority.
