First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Supply fresh air or oxygen; call for doctor. In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation.

Skin contact

Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly.

Eye contact

Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult a doctor.

Ingestion

If symptoms persist consult doctor.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

CO2, extinguishing powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam.

Unsuitable media

Water with full jet

During heating or in case of fire poisonous gases are produced.

Firefighter Protection

Mouth respiratory protective device.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Mount respiratory protective device. Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.

Environmental

Do not allow product to reach sewage system or any water course. Prevent seepage into sewage system, workpits and cellars.

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace. Open and handle receptacle with care. Only handle and refill product in closed systems. Prevent formation of aerosols.

Storage

Store in a cool location. Keep receptacle tightly sealed. Do not gas tight seal receptacle. Store in cool, dry conditions in well sealed receptacles. Protect from heat and direct sunlight.

Fire prevention

Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

No further data; see item 7.

Hands

Protective gloves. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation. The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

Eyes

Tightly sealed goggles

Respiratory

In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use respiratory protective device that is independent of circulating air.
