Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Immediately remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms: No significant symptoms are expected due to the non-classification of the product.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment: Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions).
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
water spray, dry powder, foam
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides
The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire. Under certain conditions in case of fire other hazardous combustion products may be generated.
Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Collect contaminated extinguishing water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Environmental precautions
Do not empty into drains.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For large amounts: Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder, kieselguhr). Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Segregate from acids and acid forming substances.
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place.
Storage stability:
Storage temperature: 25 °C
Storage duration: 24 Months
The product is stabilized, the shelf life should be noted.
additives:
potassium hydroxide (CAS Number: 1310-58-3)

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate.
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
General safety and hygiene measures
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Strong exothermic reaction with acids.
Formation of flammable gases: Information on hazardous decomosition products: Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
The product can polymerize if the shelf life or storage temperature are greatly exceeded.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame. Avoid heat.
Incompatible materials
Substances to avoid:
boron trifluoride, acids
Hazardous decomposition products
No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
acetaldehyde
The substances/groups of substances mentioned may be released upon the reaction with water.
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.
Contaminated packaging:
Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for recycling after being thoroughly cleaned.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
