First-aid measures

After inhalation:

Supply fresh air. If symptoms are experienced, get medical attention. In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation.

After skin contact:

Immediately rinse with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation or skin rash occurs.

After eye contact:

Immediately rinse with plenty of water. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Hold eyelids apart and flush eyes with plenty of cool low-pressure water for 15 minutes. Consult an ophtalmologist.

After swallowing:

Do not induce vomiting. If the person is conscious, rinse out mouth with water. Call for a doctor immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing agents: carbon dioxide, foam, fire-extinguishing powder.

Hazardous thermal decomposition products: in case of fire, may release irritant and toxic fumes.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

Firefighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus.

Additional information: cool endangered receptacles with water spray.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions and protective equipment:

Wear personal protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.

Provide adequate ventilation.

Measures for environmental protection:

Do not allow product to reach soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (soil, waterways, drains or sewers).

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Small spills: absorb spilled liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.

Large spills: stop spill if it can be done without danger. Dike. Pump as much liquid as possible with an explosion-proof pump or a

hand pump. Absorb the remaining liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.

Handling and storage

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4).

Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site.

Precautions for safe handling:

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Provide adequate ventilation in the workplace. Protect from heat and keep ignition sources away.

Conditions for safe storage:

Store if possible under cover in a cool well-ventilated location. Store only in the original container. Keep container tightly sealed. Keep away from sources of ignition. Protect from heat and direct sunlight.

Exposure controls / personal protection

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4). Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site.

Engineering measures:

Provide local exhaust or general room ventilation to minimize exposure to vapours. Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure.

General protective and hygienic measures:

The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals. Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.

Respiratory protection:

Use suitable respiratory protective device in case of insufficient ventilation.

Hand protection:

Protective gloves resistant to chemicals (standard EN 374-3). They should be replaced regularly and if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough.

Eye protection: safety glasses (standard EN 166)

Body protection: protective work clothing

Stability and reactivity

Chemical stability :

Product stable under storage and handling conditions according to specifications (cf "handling and storage").

Conditions to avoid :

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Materials to avoid :

Avoid contact with strong acids.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods: national and regional regulations have to be adhered to.

Recommendation: the product has to be disposed of in an authorised incinerator, according to regulation.

Uncleaned packaging
