Advice for firefighters


Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.


Further information


Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures


Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation.


Remove all sources of ignition. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours


can accumulate in low areas.


For personal protection see section 8.


Environmental precautions


Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains.


Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up


Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and place


in container for disposal according to local regulations

Exposure controls / personal protection

Appropriate engineering controls
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks
and at the end of workday.


Personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved
under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).


Skin protection
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique
(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of
contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.
Wash and dry hands.
The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and
the standard EN 374 derived from it.


Full contact
Material: Fluorinated rubber
Minimum layer thickness: 0.7 mm
Break through time: > 480 min
Splash contact
Material: butyl-rubber
Minimum layer thickness: 0.3 mm
Break through time: 35 min
If used in solution, or mixed with other substances, and under conditions which differ from EN 374,
contact the supplier of the CE approved gloves. This recommendation is advisory only and must
be evaluated by an industria situation of anticipated use by our customers. It should not be
construed as offering an approval for any specific use scenario.


Body Protection
Impervious clothing, Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing., The type of protective
equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the
dangerous substance at the specific workplace.


Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use (US) or type ABEK (EN
14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to enginee protection, use a full-face supplied air
respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government
standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
