First-aid measures

General advice:

- Immediate medical attention is required.

- Move out of dangerous area.

- Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

If inhaled:

- If breathed in, move person into fresh air.

- Consult a physician after significant exposure.

In case of skin contact:

- Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.

- Rinse immediately with plenty of water.

In case of eye contact:

- Rinse with plenty of water.

- Get medical attention immediately. Continue to rinse during transport.

- Remove contact lenses.

- Protect unharmed eye.

- Keep eye wide open while rinsing.

- Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tissue damage and blindness.

If swallowed:

- Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water.

- Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

- Take victim immediately to hospital.

- Do not induce vomiting! May cause chemical burns in mouth and throat.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

- Symptoms: The symptoms and effects are as expected from the hazards as shown in section 2. No specific product related symptoms are known.

Risks:

Harmful if swallowed.

Causes serious eye damage.

May cause drowsiness or dizziness.

Causes severe burns.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

- Treatment: Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

- Alcohol-resistant foam

- Carbon dioxide (CO2)

- Dry chemical

Specific hazards during firefighting / Specific hazards arising from the chemical:

- Water spray may be ineffective unless used by experienced firefighters.

- Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.

Combustion products:

- Carbon oxides

- Nitrogen oxides (NOx)

- Halogenated compounds

- Hydrogen chloride

Advice for firefighters

- Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Further information:

- Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

- Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains.

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

- For safety reasons in case of fire, cans should be stored separately in closed containments.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

- Use personal protective equipment.

- Wear respiratory protection.

- Ensure adequate ventilation.

- Remove all sources of ignition.

- Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.

Environmental precautions:

- Prevent product from entering drains.

- If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Methods for cleaning up / Methods for containment:

- Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations.

Additional advice:

- For personal protection see below section on personal equipment.

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling:

- For personal protection see below section on personal equipment.

- Avoid formation of aerosol.

- Do not breathe vapours or spray mist.

- Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.

- Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

- Container may be opened only under exhaust ventilation hood.

- Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure.

- Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:

- Avoid formation of aerosol.

- Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

- No sparking tools should be used.

- Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

- No smoking.

- Store in cool place.

- Electrical installations / working materials must comply with the technological safety standards.

Other data: No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
