First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Supply fresh air; consult doctor in case of complaints.
DO NOT DELAY! Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. If skin irritation continues, consult a doctor.
DO NOT DELAY! Check for and remove any contact lenses. Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Then consult a doctor.
DO NOT DELAY! Rinse out mouth and then drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting; call for medical help immediately. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration. Call for a doctor immediately.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call for medical help immediately (ingestion), consult a doctor (general/inhalation/skin/eye).
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water spray or CO2.
Dry powder and foam.
During heating or in case of fire poisonous gases are produced. Oxidizing solid. The substance itself does not burn, but in contact with combustible substances it increases the risk of fire and can fuel any existing fire substantially.
Cool endangered receptacles with water spray.
Firefighter Protection
Wear self-contained respiratory protective device. Wear fully protective suit. Do not inhale explosion gases or combustion gases. Mouth respiratory protective device.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Keep unprotected persons away.
Do not allow to penetrate the ground/soil. Do not allow product to reach sewage system or any water course in the undiluted form.
Pick up mechanically.
Materials: Do not use combustible materials such as paper towels to clean up spills.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid direct contact (skin/eye contact, ingestion and/or inhalation of fume/mist/dust) with the product in the undiluted form.
Store in cool, dry place in tightly closed receptacles. Keep container tightly sealed. Store under lock and key and out of the reach of children. Store in a bunded area.
Safety showers and eye wash facilities should be available at the work area.
Keep away from heat and direct sunlight.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
No further data; see item 7.
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. 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.
Safety glasses. Tightly sealed goggles.
Use suitable respiratory protective device in case of insufficient ventilation. Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator. If respiratory protection is required, institute a complete respiratory protection program including selection, fit testing, training, maintenance and inspection.
Protective work clothing. Body protection must be chosen depending on product properties, activity and possible exposure.
