Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

- Description of first aid measures

In case of accident or unwellness, seek medical advice immediately (show directions for use or safety data sheet

if possible).

General information:

In case of accident by inhalation: remove casualty to fresh air and keep at rest. In case of respiratory tract

irritation, consult a physician.

After inhalation:

all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice.

After ingestion:

-Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

No information available.

- Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

-Extinguishing media

Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry extinguishing powder. alcohol resistant foam. Atomized water.

Suitable extinguishing media:

High power water jet.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

-Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Can be released in case of fire: Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide (CO2).

In case of fire: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

-Advice for firefighters

Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. Do not allow entering drains or surface water.

Co-ordinate fire-fighting measures to the fire surroundings.

Accidental release measures

-Environmental precautions

Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Absorb with liquid-binding material (e.g. sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents).

Treat the recovered material as prescribed in the section on waste disposal .

Clean contaminated objects and areas thoroughly observing environmental regulations.
