First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Immediately call a POISON CENTRE/doctor. Remove casualty to fresh air and keep warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration.
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap. Remove contaminated, saturated clothing immediately. Immediate medical treatment required because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure.
In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist. Protect uninjured eye. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Immediately call a POISON CENTRE/doctor. Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Give nothing to eat or drink.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediately call a POISON CENTRE/doctor. Immediate medical treatment required because corrosive injuries that are not treated are hard to cure.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid: Inhalation Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Recommended storage temperature: 15-25°C. Keep container tightly closed and in a well-ventilated place. Protect from moisture.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Technical measures and the application of suitable work processes have priority over personal protection equipment. If handled uncovered, arrangements with local exhaust ventilation have to be used.
When handling with chemical substances, protective gloves must be worn with the CE-label including the four control digits. Recommended glove articles DIN-/EN-Norms: DIN EN 374. In the case of wanting to use the gloves again, clean them before taking off and air them well. By short-term hand contact: Suitable material: NBR (Nitrile rubber), Thickness of the glove material: 0,12 mm, Breakthrough time (maximum wearing time): > 480 min, Recommended glove articles: VWR 112-0998. By long-term hand contact: Suitable material: NBR (Nitrile rubber), Thickness of the glove material: 0,38 mm, Breakthrough time (maximum wearing time): > 480 min, Recommended glove articles: VWR 112-3717 / 112-1381.
Eye glasses with side protection DIN-/EN-Norms: DIN EN 166 Recommendation: VWR 111-0432
Respiratory protection necessary at: aerosol or mist formation. Suitable respiratory protection apparatus: Filtering Half-face mask (DIN EN 149). Recommendation: VWR 111-0451. Suitable material: P3. Recommendation: VWR 111-0244.
Wear suitable protective clothing. When handling with chemical substances, protective clothing with CE-labels including the four control digits must be worn.
