First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

General advice : Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.

If inhaled : Provide fresh air.

In case of skin contact : Wash off immediately with plenty of water.

In case of eye contact : In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

If swallowed : Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: No information available.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: For specialist advice physicians should contact the Poisons Information Service.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media : Sand, Dry powder, Cement, Carbon dioxide (CO2) in enclosed spaces

Unsuitable extinguishing media : Water, Foam

Specific hazards during firefighting: When fighting fires in enclosed spaces: caution, danger of suffocation!

The product reacts with water and generates heat.

Warning: water promotes the spread of fire.

Advice for firefighters

Further information : Cool containers / tanks with water spray.

Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Fire-fighting measures have to be adapted to the butan-1-ol produced by hydrolytic decomposition.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions : Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

Environmental precautions : Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system.

Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Methods for cleaning up : Protect against water.  The material taken up must be disposed of in accordance with regulations.

Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Advice on protection against  fire and explosion: Take precautionary measures against static discharges; Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage areas and containers: Protect from moisture.

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.

The product is hygroscopic.

German storage class : 4.1B Flammable solids

Specific end uses : Consult the technical guidelines for the use of this substance/mixture.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection : No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. In inadequately ventilated areas, where workplace limits are

exceeded, where unpleasant odours exist or where aerosols are in use, or smoke and mist occur, use self-contained breathing apparatus or breathing apparatus with a type A filter or appropriate combined filter (e.g. where aerosols are in use, or smoke and mist occur, A-P2 or ABEK-P2), in compliance

with EN 141.

Hand protection : The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please observe the nstructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time., Be aware that in daily use the durability of a chemical resistant protective glove can be notably shorter than the break through time measured according to EN 374, due to the numerous outside influences (e.g. temperature).

gloves suitable for permanent contact:

Material: Nitrile rubber/nitrile latex

Break through time: >= 480 min

Material thickness: 0.35 mm

Material: butyl-rubber

Break through time: >= 480 min

Material thickness: 0.5 mm

gloves suitable for splash protection:

Material: Polychloroprene

Break through time: >= 240 min

Material thickness: 0.5 mm

 

unsuitable gloves: Material: Natural rubber/natural latex, Polyvinylchloride

Eye protection : Tightly fitting safety goggles

Hygiene measures : Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.

Protective measures : Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Avoid contact with the skin and the eyes.

Environmental exposure controls

General advice : Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: Sec-butyl alcohol and aluminium hydroxide are produced in an exothermic reaction by adding water.

Chemical stability: Decomposes when moist.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: Hazardous reactions : None reasonably foreseeable.

Conditions to avoid : Exposure to moisture.

Incompatible materials: Materials to avoid : Water, Humid air, Steam

Hazardous decomposition products: : No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.

Decomposition at the surface of the product in contact with water

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Product : Following pre-treatment and observing the regulations for hazardous wastes, it must be taken to a permitted hazardous wastes landfill or hazardous wastes incinerator.

Contaminated packaging : Packaging that cannot be cleaned must be disposed of in the same way as the material itself.
