If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Administer oxygen if available and artificial respiration if necessary. If there is any suspicion of inhalation: A self contained breathing apparatus should be worn. Remove to fresh air immediately.

Symptoms: Irritation of the respiratory tract.

Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash affected skin with plenty of water or soap and water. If irritation (redness, rash, blistering) develops, get medical attention.

Symptoms: Causes skin irritation.

Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, get medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: May cause eye irritation.

Do not induce vomiting because of risk of aspiration into the lungs. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration into the lungs. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately. Do not wait for symptoms to appear.

Symptoms: Aspiration into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which can be fatal. Ingestion may cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. Nausea, Vomiting and Diarrhoea.

Extinguish with sand or dry chemical. Foam, Carbon dioxide, Water fog or dry powder

Do not use water jet. Direct water jet may spread the fire.

Flammable liquid and vapour. May form explosive mixture with air. Vapours are heavier than air and may travel considerable distances to a source of ignition and flashback.

Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance. Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire.

Shut off leaks if without risk. Eliminate sources of ignition. Dike area to contain the spill. Evacuate the area and keep personnel upwind.

Allow small spillages to evaporate provided there is adequate ventilation.

Evacuate the area and keep personnel upwind. Cover spillage with foam to reduce evaporation. Do not use water jet.

Avoid release to the environment. Do not allow to enter drains, sewers or watercourses.

Adsorb spillages onto sand, earth or any suitable adsorbent material. Transfer to a lidded container for disposal or recovery.

Materials: Sand, earth, suitable adsorbent material, floating absorbents.

Obtain special instructions before use. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Prevent vapour build up by providing adequate ventilation during and after use. May form explosive mixtures with air. Take action to prevent static discharges. Use non-sparking tools. All parts of the plant and equipment should be electrically bonded together and connected to earth. Electrical continuity should be checked at regular intervals. Antistatic clothing and footwear should be used. The vapour is heavier than air; beware of pits and confined spaces. Avoid all contact with substance. Do not ingest. If swallowed then seek immediate medical assistance. Do not breathe vapour. Keep good industrial hygiene. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Contaminated clothing should be thoroughly cleaned.

Stable at ambient temperatures. Keep only in original packaging. Keep containers properly sealed when not in use. Protect from sunlight.

Keep good industrial hygiene. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Contaminated clothing should be thoroughly cleaned.

Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Take action to prevent static discharges. Use non-sparking tools.

Provide adequate ventilation, including appropriate local extraction if dusts, fumes or vapours are likely to be evolved. Store in a cool/low-temperature, well-ventilated (dry) place away from heat and ignition sources. Guarantee that the eye flushing systems and safety showers are located close to the working place.

Wear impervious gloves (EN374). Gloves should be changed regularly to avoid permeation problems. Breakthrough time of the glove material: refer to the information provided by the gloves' producer. Recommended: Nitrile rubber.

Use eye protection according to EN 166, designed to protect against liquid splashes.

When the product is heated /In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. The use of a high efficiency filter (EN143) is recommended. Filter type A2. Closed system(s): Not normally required.

Wear anti-static clothing and shoes. small scale: Wear suitable coveralls to prevent exposure to the skin. large scale: Chemical protection suit.

Avoid release to the environment.

Stable under normal conditions.

Reacts with - Strong oxidising agents

Extremely flammable liquid and vapour. May form explosive mixture with air. Vapours are heavier than air and may travel considerable distances to a source of ignition and flashback. Product may release Hydrogen Sulphide. Hazardous polymerisation will not occur.

Elevated temperature. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Keep away from direct sunlight.

Keep away from oxidising agents. Strong Acids and Alkalis.

A mixture of solid and liquid particulates and gases including unidentified organic and inorganic compounds. Decomposes in a fire giving off toxic fumes: COx, H2S, SOx,
