Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- General advice:
Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
- Following inhalation:
If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
- Following skin contact:
Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.
- Following eye contact:
Flush eyes with water as a precaution.
- Following ingestion:
Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
- Most important symptoms and effects:
Fire-fighting measures
- Suitable extinguishing media:
For small (incipient) fires, use media such as "alcohol" foam, dry chemica of water applied ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding
- Unsuitable extinguishing media:
- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Carbon oxides
- Advice for fire fighter: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
- Further information: Use water spray to cool unopened containers.
Accidental release measures
- Personal precautions:
Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Remove all sources of ignition. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.
- Protective equipment and emergency procedures:
"see exposure controls / personal protection"
- Environmental precautions:
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains.
- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13).
Handling and storage
- Precautions for safe handling:
Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.
- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Storage class (TRGS 510): Flammable Liquids

Exposure controls / personal protection
1. Technical protection measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
2. Organisational protection measures
3. Hand protection: Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique
(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of
contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.
Wash and dry hands.
4. Feet protection
5. Body protection: Impervious clothing, Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing., The type of protective
equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous
substance at the specific workplace.
6. Eye protection: Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under
appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
7. Respiratory protection: Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use (US) or type ABEK (EN
14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to enginee protection, use a full-face supplied air
respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government
standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
