Separate eyelids, wash the eyes thoroughly with water (15 min.). Seek medical advice immediately.

Call in a physician immediately and show him the Safety Data Sheet. Rinse out mouth and give plenty of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting - aspiration hazard.

Dry powder, Foam, Carbon dioxide, Dry chemical extinguisher

Full water jet

In case of combustion evolution of dangerous gases possible.

Cool endangered containers with water spray jet.

Keep away sources of ignition. Ensure adequate ventilation. Use breathing apparatus if exposed to vapours/dust/aerosol. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Use personal protective clothing.

Prevent spread over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers). Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil. Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.

Take up with absorbent material (eg sand, kieselguhr, universal binder). Do not pick up with the help of saw-dust or other combustible substances.

Materials: sand, kieselguhr, universal binder

Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if necessary). Avoid formation of aerosols. Avoid impact, friction and electro-static loading; risk of ignition!. Use explosion-proof apparatus and fittings. Keep container tightly closed. Smoking, eating and drinking shall be prohibited in application area.

Keep in original packaging, tightly closed. Storage rooms must be properly ventilated. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Provide solvent-resistant and impermeable floor. Store only in the open air or in explosion-proof rooms.

Smoking, eating and drinking shall be prohibited in application area.

Keep away from sources of heat and ignition. No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use explosion-proof equipment/fittings and non-sparking tools. Keep away from combustible material. Wear shoes with conductive soles.
