First-aid measures

After inhalation:
IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing.
In case of unconsciousness, place the victim in recovery position and call medical assistance.
If breathing is difficult, immediately call medical assistance. Give oxygen or artificial respiration.

After skin contact:
IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower for 15 minutes.
If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

After eyes contact:
IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Call an ophthalmologist.

After ingestion:
IF SWALLOWED: rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.
In case of unconsciousness, place the victim in recovery position until the arrival of the medical assistance.
If person is conscious, give plenty of water to drink to dilute the substance.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:
Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder or polymer foam.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Substance is not flammable. However, in a fire, it can decompose, giving off toxic fumes of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).

Advice for firefighters / responders:
Firefighting responders should equip themselves with a complete body and heat resistant protective equipment and self contained breathing apparatus (EN 137 / EN 14593 / EN 14594).
Water should be applied to cool containers of the substance that are exposed to flames.
Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Ventilate contaminated area.
Avoid contact with the released substance.
Avoid inhalation.
Remove from spill site any person whose presence is not necessary. Keep upwind.
The others should wear protective cloth, breathing apparatus, chemical safety goggles, rubber boots and rubber gloves.

Environmental precautions:
Shut off leaks if without risk. Prevent liquid from entering the environment.
Do not flush spill area with plenty of water before picking-up, to avoid contamination of the watercourses and low areas.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
Pump the largest quantity of spilled product in a drum (use an explosion proof pump). This product should be disposed.
Absorb the last traces of liquid on sand or vermiculite. Cover with dry lime or soda ash, pick up and place in tightly closed and labelled drums/containers for disposal.
Wash spill site with plenty of water after material pickup is complete.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:
Handle and use only in well-ventilated areas.
Safety shower and eyewash fountain should be available.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes.
Avoid inhalation.
Avoid repeated or prolonged exposure.
Wash thoroughly after handling this substance. Keep apart working clothes.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Technical measures: The ground of the storage area must be waterproof and form retention basin.
Storage conditions: Keep containers tightly closed. Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area.

Incompatible materials: Keep away from oxidising agents or strong acids.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Technical protection measures:
The use of local exhaust is recommended to avoid vapour emissions.

Eye protection:
Chemical safety goggles with side shields / Face shield (EN 166)

Body protection / Skin protection:
Suitable protective body clothing (EN 14605 in case of splashes)

Hand protection:
In case of limited contact or for a protection against splashes: gloves with minimum protection index of 2 (permeation time > 30 min according to EN 374-3): nitrile rubber, PVC
In case of direct prolonged exposure: gloves with minimum protection index of 4 (permeation time > 120 min according to EN 374-3): butyl rubber, PVC

Respiratory protection:
Respirator (EN 140 / EN 136) with filter (EN 14387/A1 – Type A) when risk of inhalation.
Self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 137 / EN 14593 / EN 14594) in case of important risk or prolonged exposure, for example in case of fire fighting.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: No data available.

Chemical Stability: The substance is stable at room temperature and under normal storage and handling conditions

Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reaction has been identified.

Conditions to avoid: No data available.

Incompatible materials: Strong oxidizing agents and strong acids.

Hazardous decomposition products: toxic fumes of carbon oxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
