Administrative data

First-aid measures

Eye contact: Immediately flush eye with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately.

Skin contact: In case of contact remove contaminated clothing and immediately wash affected areas with copious quantities of water and soap for at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid. As the substance is sensitising, take note of potential effects of sensitisation.

immediately. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult give oxygen. Get medical aid.

Ingestion: Wash out mouth with water provided person is conscious. Call a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

Personal precautions: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear.

Extinguishing media: In case of fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant foam.

Accidental release measures

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment.

Personal precautions: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, eye protection and gloves. Do not breathe dust. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Environmental precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Do not let product enter the drains.

Spills/Leaks: Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. vermiculate, sand or earth) and place into a suitable disposal container.

Ventilate area, clean up spills and wash spill site after material pickup is complete

Handling and storage

Handling: Wear appropriate protective clothing.

Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed.

Upon technical controls, if the exposure is below the TLV limit, use a mask  with an active carbon filter. Otherwise, use a mask with filter for organic vapours A UNI EN 141.

Hygiene measures: Use good working practices. Wash hands and face thoroughly after handling.

Stability and reactivity

Chemical stability: Stable under normal storage conditions.

Conditions to avoid: Heat and sources of ignition.

Incompatibilities with other materials: Strong oxidizing and reducing agents, acids and bases.

Hazardous decomposition products: Carbon oxides
