Composition Notes
For the text of the H-phrases and classification codes (GHS/CLP), see Section 16. The substances named in this section are given with their actual, appropriate classification! For substances that are listed in appendix VI, table 3.1 of the regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) this means that all notes that may be given here for the named classification have been taken into account. The addition of the highest concentrations listed here can result in a classification. Only when this classification is listed in Section 2 does it apply. In all other cases the total concentration is below the classification.
Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Remove person from danger area. Supply person with fresh air and consult doctor according to symptoms. If the person is unconscious, place in a stable side position and consult a doctor.
Symptoms:
Irritation of the respiratory tract, Coughing, Headaches, Dizziness, Effects/damages the central nervous system, Unconsciousness, Oedema of the lungs, chemical pneumonitis (condition similar to pneumonia)
🖐️ Skin Contact
Remove polluted, soaked clothing immediately, wash thoroughly with plenty of water and soap, in case of irritation of the skin (flare), consult a doctor.
Symptoms:
irritation of the skin (flare), Drying of the skin, Dermatitis (skin inflammation)
👁️ Eye Contact
Remove contact lenses. Wash thoroughly for several minutes using copious water. Seek medical help if necessary.
Symptoms:
Irritation of the eyes
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Typically no exposure pathway. Rinse the mouth thoroughly with water. Do not induce vomiting - give copious water to drink. Consult doctor immediately. Danger of aspiration. In case of vomiting, keep head low so that the stomach content does not reach the lungs.
Symptoms:
Nausea, Vomiting, Danger of aspiration.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
Seek medical help if necessary (for eye contact). Consult doctor immediately (for ingestion). Gastric lavage (stomach washing) only under endotracheal intubation. Subsequent observation for pneumonia and pulmonary oedema. Pulmonary oedema prophylaxis.
Medical Treatment
Gastric lavage (stomach washing) only under endotracheal intubation. Subsequent observation for pneumonia and pulmonary oedema. Pulmonary oedema prophylaxis.

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
Ensure good ventilation. This can be achieved by local suction or general air extraction. If this is insufficient to maintain the concentration under the WEL or AGW values, suitable breathing protection should be worn. Applies only if maximum permissible exposure values are listed here. Suitable assessment methods for reviewing the effectiveness of protection measures adopted include metrological and non-metrological investigative techniques. These are specified by e.g. EN 14042. EN 14042 "Workplace atmospheres. Guide for the application and use of procedures for the assessment of exposure to chemical and biological agents".
🧤 Hand Protection
Normally not necessary. with long-term contact: If applicable Protective Viton / fluoroelastomer gloves (EN ISO 374). Protective nitrile gloves (EN ISO 374). Minimum layer thickness in mm: 0,4 Permeation time (penetration time) in minutes: > 480 The breakthrough times determined in accordance with EN 16523-1 were not obtained under practical conditions. The recommended maximum wearing time is 50% of breakthrough time. Protective hand cream recommended. Additional information on hand protection - No tests have been performed. In the case of mixtures, the selection has been made according to the knowledge available and the information about the contents. Selection of materials derived from glove manufacturer's indications. Final selection of glove material must be made taking the breakthrough times, permeation rates and degradation into account. Selection of a suitable glove depends not only on the material but also on other quality characteristics and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. In the case of mixtures, the resistance of glove materials cannot be predicted and must therefore be tested before use. The exact breakthrough time of the glove material can be requested from the protective glove manufacturer and must be observed.
👁️ Eye Protection
With danger of contact with eyes. Tight fitting protective goggles with side protection (EN 166).
😷 Respiratory Protection
Normally not necessary. If OES or MEL is exceeded. Filter A2 P2 (EN 14387), code colour brown, white At high concentrations: Respiratory protection appliance (insulation device) (e.g. EN 137 or EN 138) Observe wearing time limitations for respiratory protection equipment.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Protective working garments (e.g. safety shoes EN ISO 20345, long-sleeved protective working garments).
