Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment: Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions).
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
water spray, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
nitrogen oxides and carbon oxides 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 a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information: Cool endangered containers with water-spray. Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
- For large amounts: Dike spillage. Pump off product.
- For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose binder, kieselguhr).
To clean the floor and all objects contaminated by this material, use plenty of water. 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 and in a well-ventilated place. Keep container dry.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Respiratory protection required in case of exceptional circumstances (e.g.: accidental release, exceeding the occupational exposure limit) Combination filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds and solid and liquid particles (f.e. EN 14387 Type A-P2)
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):
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.
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:
In order to satisfy general industrial hygiene rules safety glasses with side-shields (e.g. EN 166) are recommended.
Body protection:
No body protection required if used for intended purpose and satisfying generally accepted industrial hygiene rules.
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. No eating, drinking, smoking or tobacco use at the place of work. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Store work clothing separately. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
- No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as indicated.
- Corrosive effects to metal are not anticipated.
- Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as indicated.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Reacts with acids. Reacts with oxidizing agents. Reacts with acid chlorides. Reacts with halogenated compounds. The progress of reaction is exothermic. Incompatible with acid chlorides and acid anhydrides.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid extreme temperatures.
Incompatible materials
Substances to avoid: oxidizing agents, nitrosating agents, acids, acid forming substances
Hazardous decomposition products
Hazardous decomposition products:
- Carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, nitrous gases.
- No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as indicated.
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.
