First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Supply fresh air. If required, provide artificial respiration. Keep patient warm. Seek immediate medical advice.
Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. Seek immediate medical advice.
Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult a doctor.
Seek medical treatment.
Immediate Medical Attention
Seek immediate medical advice.

Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use carbon dioxide, extinguishing powder or foam. Water may be ineffective but may be used for cooling exposed containers.
Halocarbon extinguisher
During heating or in case of fire poisonous gases are produced. This substance is an oxidizer and its heat of reaction with reducing agents or combustibles may cause ignition.
Firefighter Protection
Wear self-contained respirator. Wear fully protective impervious suit.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not allow product to reach sewage system or any water course.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Handle under dry protective gas. Keep container tightly sealed. Ensure good ventilation at the workplace.
Store in cool, dry place in tightly closed containers. Store under dry inert gas. Keep container tightly sealed. Store in cool, dry conditions in well sealed containers. Protect from humidity and water.
Substance/product can reduce the ignition temperature of flammable substances. This substance is an oxidizer and its heat of reaction with reducing agents or combustibles may cause ignition.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Properly operating chemical fume hood designed for hazardous chemicals and having an average face velocity of at least 100 feet per minute.
Impervious gloves. Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition. The selection of suitable gloves not only depends on the material, but also on quality. Quality will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Material of gloves Nitrile rubber, NBR. Penetration time of glove material (in minutes) 480. Glove thickness 0.11 mm.
Safety glasses
Use suitable respirator when high concentrations are present. Recommended filter device for short term use: Use a respirator with type P100 (USA) or P3 (EN 143) cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. Risk assessment should be performed to determine if air-purifying respirators are appropriate. Only use equipment tested and approved under appropriate government standards.
Protective work clothing.
