Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

After skin contact: Remove the contaminated clothes. Wash abundantly in the water ( or water + soap). If an irritation persits or what we perceive some hurt, consult a doctor.
After eye contact: Wash abundantly in big water. Consult a doctor if the irritation persits.
After indigestion: Drink a lot of water. Provoke the vomit, except when the product is classified R65. Consult a doctor in case of faintness.
After inhalation: Place the subject in the air. Consult a doctor

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing agents: CO2 or extinguishing powder.
For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: water with full jet.
Advice to fireman: Avoid inhaling vapors and clear smokes. Use mask if necessary. Do not attack the fire with water: the water instead of suffocation tends to feed the fire. Essential oil has the faculty to float on the water. The distribution of the fire is then accelerated. To put out a fire being born with essential oil, use a specific fire extinguisher with powder ABC (or equivalent). If the fire is not important, we can suffocate it by covering it with ground, sand or blanket.

Accidental release measures

Individual precautions, equipment of protection and emergency procedures: Avoid the inhalation and the contact with the skin and the eyes. Take away any sources of inflammation. Aerate premises. Do not smoke.
Precautions for environmental protection: Avoid the contamination of sewers, waters of surface and some subterranean waters.
Methods and material of seclusion and cleaning: the big overflowing must be contained by means of absorbent, sand or sluggish powder, which will then be annihilated and destroyed according to the regulations in force. Get ride by incineration of cloths, toweling, ect. having served to mop (danger of spontaneous combustion).

Handling and storage

Handling:
Avoid the contact with the product. Do not ingest the product. Hold it far from any food or drink. Do not smoke near. Do not inhale abundantly warm vapors. During the incorporation of the product, this one must be held at relatively low temperatures. In case of necessity of rise of temperatures, this one must be arranged and during a short time.

Respect the precautions required by the common hygiene.
Storage:
It is recommended to store in a closed original packings, shielded from sources of heat and by avoiding the too big differences of temperature. A good aeration of premises is desirable. Respect the precautions required by the common hygiene.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment: the wearing of safety glasses is strongly recommended. The wearing of an overall or special clothes is strongly recommended. In the well aerated premises, a protection of respiratory tracts is not normally necessary. If it is not the case a mask can be required. The exposure in a thermal flow bound to a fire or to an explosion can provoke burns in variable degrees, according to the distance in which we are. Wear necessarily an appropriate equipment of protection as well as a device of autonomous respiratory protection. Perform the commitments in conformance with the local legislation relative to the environmental protection.

Stability and reactivity

No dangerous reaction known in the normal conditions of use. No significant modification in the normal conditions of storage. No dangerous reaction according to our knowledge in the normal conditions of use. Avoid excessive temperature. Avoid the contact or the contamination with strong acids and oxidizing agents. No decomposition in corresponding use.
