Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice
:
Move out of dangerous area. Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Do not leave the victim unattended.
If inhaled
:
Call a physician or poison control centre immediately.
Move to fresh air.
If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately.
In case of skin contact
:
If on skin, rinse well with water.
If on clothes, remove clothes.
If skin irritation persists, call a physician.
Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
In case of eye contact
:
Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tis-sue damage and blindness.
Remove contact lenses.
In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital.
Protect unharmed eye.
Keep eye wide open while rinsing.
If swallowed
:
Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water.
Keep respiratory tract clear.
Do NOT induce vomiting.

Prevent product from entering drains.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.
6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up
:
Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece).
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling
:
Avoid formation of respirable particles.
Do not breathe vapours/dust.
Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
For personal protection see section 8.
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the ap-plication area.
Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Persons susceptible to skin sensitisation problems or asthma, allergies, chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this mixture is being used.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
:
Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed.
Hygiene measures
:
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. General industrial hygiene practice. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storage areas and containers
:
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully re-sealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Electrical installa-tions / working materials must comply with the technological safety standards. To maintain product quality, do not store in heat or direct sunlight.
Further information on stor-age stability
:
Keep in a dry place. No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.

Further information
At an exposure above the limit value, irritation occurs or a danger exists for acute intoxication. The working method should therefore be designed in a way that the exposure never exceeds this limit value. At a control, the sampling period must be as short as possible to be able to perform a reliable measure-ment. The results of the measurement will be related to the period of time in which the sampling took place
