First-aid measures

- General information:Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product.

- Following inhalation: Supply fresh air and to be sure call for a doctor.

- Following skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use recognised skin cleanser. Do NOT use solvents or thinners.

- Following eye contact: Remove contact lenses, irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water, holding the eyelids apart for at least 10 minutes and seek immediate medical advice.

- Following ingestion: Rinse mouth carefully. Call for a doctor immediately.

- Most important symptoms and effects: No further relevant information available.

Fire-fighting measures

- Suitable extinguishing media: CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray.

- Unsuitable extinguishing media: None known.

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: This material is harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects. Fire water contaminated with this material must be contained and prevented from being discharged to any waterway, sewer or drain.

- Advice for fire fighter: Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode. Clothing for fire-fighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Provide adequate ventilation.

- Protective equipment and emergency procedures: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. Chemical splash goggles. Use eye protection according to EN 166. Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn. Wear a respirator conforming to EN140.
Filter type: organic vapour (Type A) and particulate filter P3

- Environmental precautions: Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). Water polluting material. Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dilute with water and mop up if water-soluble. Alternatively, or if water-insoluble, absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.

Handling and storage

- Precautions for safe handling: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Persons with a history of skin sensitization problems should not be employed in any process in which this product is used. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not ingest. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.

- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Do not store above the following temperature: 50°C (122°F). Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabelled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Keep away from the following materials to prevent strong exothermic reactions: oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strong acids.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Technical protection measures: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to airborne contaminants.

Body protection: Handle with rubber gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minim
ize contact. Gloves should be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique to avoid s
kin contact. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good l
aboratory practices.

Eye protection. Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used
when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases
or dusts.

Respiratory protection: Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator. If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit, they must use appropriate, certified respirators. Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Wear a respirator conforming to EN140. Filter type: organic vapour (Type A) and particulate filter P3.

Disposal considerations

The generation of waste should be avoided or minimised wherever possible. Disposal of this product, solutions and any by-products should at all times comply with the requirements of environmental protection and waste disposal legislation and any regional local authority requirements. Dispose of surplus and non-recyclable products via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Waste should not be disposed of untreated to the sewer unless fully compliant with the requirements of all authorities with jurisdiction.
