On skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes: Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 10 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, or use if available Previn-solution or PEG for eye washing, then wash additionally for 3 minutes with water. Consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion: Do not cause sickness. Seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: dry extinguishing media, carbon dioxide, alcohol resistant foam, water spray
Not suitable extinguishing media: alcohol not resistant foam, water in full spray ( danger of distribution)
Further information: Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire. Collect contaminated extinguishing water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: Put on protection. Give warning to surrounding area. Sources of ignition should be kept away. Sources of ignition far-off could be dangerous, too.
Environmental precautions: Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up: For large amounts: Dam up and pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material
Further information: Explosion hazard. If product has been attained drains inform fire service and water protection authorities.

Exposure controls / personal protection

General Protection and Hygiene Measures
Keep food in a way that it does not come into contact with the dangerous substance. Avoid inhalation of vapours and skin and eye contact. Remove soaked clothing. Strictly observe personal hygiene.

Respiratory protection
If the substance may be released (accidentally), wear respiratory protection. Observe the limitations on wearing time! Respiratory protective device: Gas filter A, brown colour, or ABEK/P3. For information regarding the preconditions and maximum concentrations for use see the "Regeln für den Einsatz von Atemschutzgeräten" (BGR 190) [Use of respiratory protective devices]. Respiratory protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. To be used at concentrations above the usage limit for filter appliances, in case of oxygen content below 17 vol% or under unclear conditions.

Skin protection
Preventative skin protection necessary. Clean skin before breaks and at the end of the shift with water and soap. Apply fatty skin-care products after skin cleaning.

Hand protection
Use gloves. The glove material shall be sufficiently resistant and impermeable for the substance handled. Prior to use, check for tightness.
Pre-clean gloves prior to taking them off, then store well-ventilated. Textile or leather gloves are totally unsuitable. Suitable glove materials: (breakthrough time >= 8 hours): Fluorine rubber – FKM (0.4 mm).
Gloves made of the following materials are not suitable: Natural rubber/natural latex – NR; polychloroprene – CR; nitrile rubber/nitrile latex – NBR; polyvinyl chloride – PVC, butyl caoutchouc – Butyl.

Eye protection
Wear sufficient eye protection. Wear frame goggles with lateral shields. If there is a potential of the liquid getting into contact with the eyes, wear splash goggles.

Body protection
Flame-retardant, anti-static protective clothing; sturdy, closed shoes. Depending on the actual danger wear boots and chemical protection suit. Protective clothing shall be solvent-resistant.
Observe wearing time limitations!
Check personal protective equipment for damage prior to using them.



Stability and reactivity

If used for the purpose intended, the product is stable and does not decompose.
Product may form explosive gas-air mixtures.

Disposal considerations

Waste shall only be disposed of if recycling is not possible.
Disposal through: special waste incineration (Sonderabfallverbrennung – SAV). Collecting containers shall be clearly marked with the systematic description of their content and the relevant hazardous goods identification.
Keep containers in a well-ventilated place. Hand over to the competent company for waste disposal.
