First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove the affected individual into fresh air and keep the person calm. Assist in breathing if necessary.
Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and water.
In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with plenty of water.
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Never induce vomiting or give anything by mouth if the victim is unconscious or having convulsions.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediate medical attention required.
Medical Treatment
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions).
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
water spray, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
water jet
Substance/product is dangerous when exposed to heat or flames. If product is heated above decomposition temperature, toxic vapours will be released.
Cool endangered containers with water-spray.
Firefighter Protection
Firefighters should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus and turn-out gear.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame. Use antistatic tools. Extinguish sources of ignition nearby and downwind.
Notify the responsible authorities of reportable releases to the air, into waterways, soil or sewers.
Spills should be contained, solidified, and placed in suitable containers for disposal.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Wear suitable protective clothing and eye/face protection. Handle and open container with care. Prevent contact with air/oxygen (formation of peroxide). Handle under dry inert gas. Use antistatic tools.
Keep container tightly closed. Keep under inert gas. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Use antistatic tools. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open flame.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Provide local exhaust ventilation to maintain recommended P.E.L.
Chemical resistant protective gloves, Polyethylene-Laminate (PE laminate) - ca. 0.1 mm coating thickness
Tightly fitting safety goggles (chemical goggles). Wear face shield if splashing hazard exists.
Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) organic vapour/particulate respirator. Do not exceed the maximum use concentration for the respirator facepiece/cartridge combination. For emergency or non-routine, high exposure situations, use a NIOSH-certified full facepiece pressure demand self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or a full facepiece pressure demand supplied-air respirator (SAR) with escape provisions.
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. head protection, apron, protective boots, chemical-protection suit.
