First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.
Flush eyes with water as a precaution.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Carbon oxides
Firefighter Protection
Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Normal measures for preventive fire protection.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it. Full contact: Material: Nitrile rubber, Minimum layer thickness: 0,4 mm, Break through time: 480 min. Splash contact: Material: Nitrile rubber, Minimum layer thickness: 0,11 mm, Break through time: 30 min.
Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Complete suit protecting against chemicals. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
