· General information:

Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur. Show the safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

· After inhalation: IF INHALED: Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.

· After skin contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. If a person feels unwell or symptoms of skin irritation appear, consult a physician.

· After eye contact: Rinse immediately carefully and thoroughly with eye-bath or water. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

· After swallowing: If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this SDS or label. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Exposure controls / personal protection

General protective and hygienic measures:

The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals.

Maintain adequate engineering controls and/or ventilation to keep hazardous ingredients below their statutory limits.

Use an approved respirator whenever exposure limits are exceeded.

Protection of hands:

The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.

Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.

· Material of gloves: Neoprene gloves, Butyl rubber (BR), Nitrile rubber (NBR).

· Penetration time of glove material: The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

The determined penetration times according to EN 374 part III are not performed under practical conditions.

Therefore a maximum wearing time, which corresponds to 50% of the penetration time, is recommended.

Eye protection:

Goggles recommended during refilling.

Body protection:

Protective work clothing

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: No decomposition if used according to specifications.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reactions known.

Conditions to avoid Heat, flames and sparks.

Incompatible materials: Oxidizing agent

Hazardous decomposition products: No dangerous decomposition products known.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Smaller quantities can be disposed of with household waste.

Do not contaminate ponds, waterways or ditches with chemical or used container. Dispose of in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.

Uncleaned packaging:

Disposal must be made according to official regulations.

Dispose of packaging according to regulations on the disposal of packagings.

Recommended cleansing agents: Water, if necessary together with cleansing agents.
