Specific Fire Hazards
Combustible. In case of insufficient ventilation and/or in use, may form flammable/explosive vapourair mixture. Solvent vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Places which are not ventilated, e.g. unventilated below ground level areas such as trenches, conduits and shafts, are particularly prone to the presence of flammable substances or mixtures. Vapours are heavier than air, spread along floors and form explosive mixtures with air. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air.
Fire Fighting Instructions
co-ordinate firefighting measures to the fire surroundings! Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.
Firefighter Protection Equipment
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures & Spill Response
Emergency spill cleanup procedures, containment methods, and environmental protection
Emergency Procedures
For non-emergency personnel: Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Avoidance of ignition sources.
Environmental Precautions
Keep away from drains, surface and ground water. Retain contaminated washing water and dispose of it.
Cleanup Methods
Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents). Place in appropriate containers for disposal. Ventilate affected area.
Cleanup Materials:
liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents)

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
Hand Protection
Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves. The times are approximate values from measurements at 22 ° C and permanent contact. Increased temperatures due to heated substances, body heat etc. and a reduction of the effective layer thickness by stretching can lead to a considerable reduction of the breakthrough time. If in doubt, contact manufacturer. At an approx. 1.5 times larger / smaller layer thickness, the respective breakthrough time is doubled / halved. The data apply only to the pure substance. When transferred to substance mixtures, they may only be considered as a guide. • type of material Butyl caoutchouc (butyl rubber) • material thickness ≥0,5 mm • breakthrough times of the glove material >480 minutes (permeation: level 6)
Eye Protection
Use safety goggle with side protection.
