First-aid measures

After inhalation: fresh air. Consult doctor if feeling unwell.In case of skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower.After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. Call in ophthalmologist.After swallowing: immediately make victim drink water (two glasses at most). Consult a physician. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayedirritant effects, Cough, Shortness of breath, Headache, Nausea, Dizziness, muscular weakness, inebriation, restlessness, Unconsciousness

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing mediaSuitable extinguishing mediaFoam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Dry powderUnsuitable extinguishing mediaFor this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixtureCombustible.In the event of decomposition: danger of explosion!Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.Forms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating.Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.5.3 Advice for firefightersSpecial protective equipment for firefightersStay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact bykeeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.Further informationPrevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.Remove container from danger zone and cool with water.

Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency proceduresAdvice for non-emergency personnel: Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Avoid substancecontact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergencyprocedures, consult an expert.Advice for emergency responders:Protective equipment see section 8.6.2 Environmental precautionsDo not let product enter drains.6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning upCover drains. Collect, bind, and pump off spills. Observe possible material restrictions (seesections 7 and 10). Take up with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb® ). Dispose ofproperly. Clean up affected area.

Handling and storage

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controlsEngineering measuresTechnical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment.Individual protection measuresProtective clothing needs to be selected specifically for the workplace, depending on concentrations and quantities of the hazardous substances handled. The chemical resistance of the protective equipment should be enquired at the respective supplier.Eye/face protectionSafety glassesHand protectionfull contact:Glove material: Viton (R)Glove thickness: 0.70 mmBreak through time: > 480 minsplash contact:Glove material: Nitrile rubberGlove thickness: 0.40 mmBreak through time: > 30 minThe protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 890 Vitoject® (full contact), KCL 730 Camatril® -Velours (splash contact). The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types Other protective equipmentprotective clothingRespiratory protectionrequired when vapours/aerosols are generated.Recommended Filter type: Filter A-(P2)The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.Environmental exposure controlsDo not let product enter drains.

Stability and reactivity

10.1 ReactivityForms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating.A range from approx. 15 Kelvin below the flash point is to be rated as critical.10.2 Chemical stabilityheat-sensitiveMay decompose on long exposure to light.In case of decomposition in closed containers and tubes risk of bursting due to buildup ofoverpressure.tendency towards spontaneous polymerisationStabilizer4-tert-butylpyrocatechol10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsViolent reactions possible with:Strong oxidizing agents, Strong bases, AcidsViolent polymerisation may be caused by:halogens, metallic salts, copper compounds, Peroxides, peroxi compounds10.4 Conditions to avoidStrong heating.10.5 Incompatible materialsCopper, brass10.6 Hazardous decomposition productsno information available

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methodsWaste material must be disposed of in accordance with the Directive on waste 2008/98/EC as well as other national and local regulations. Leave chemicals in original containers. No mixing with other waste. Handle uncleaned containers like the product itself.
