Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Flooding quantities of water.

Oxidizer: Contact with combustible/organic material may cause fire. Containers may explode when heated. Risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. May ignite combustibles (wood paper, oil, clothing, etc.).

Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment as required.

Should not be released into the environment.

Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.

Materials: suitable containers

Wear personal protective equipment/face protection. Avoid dust formation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Keep away from clothing and other combustible materials.

Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Remove and wash contaminated clothing and gloves, including the inside, before re-use. Wash hands before breaks and after work.

Keep away from clothing and other combustible materials.

Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Wherever possible, engineering control measures such as the isolation or enclosure of the process, the introduction of process or equipment changes to minimise release or contact, and the use of properly designed ventilation systems, should be adopted to control hazardous materials at source

Protective gloves. Glove material: Natural rubber, Nitrile rubber, Neoprene, PVC. Breakthrough time: See manufacturers recommendations. EU standard: EN 374. Glove comments: (minimum requirement)

Goggles (European standard - EN 166)

When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. To protect the wearer, respiratory protective equipment must be the correct fit and be used and maintained properly. Large scale/emergency use: Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 136 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. Recommended Filter type: Particulates filter conforming to EN 143. Small scale/Laboratory use: Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149:2001 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. Recommended half mask: Particle filtering: EN149:2001. When RPE is used a face piece Fit Test should be conducted

Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to prevent skin exposure. Inspect gloves before use. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. (Refer to manufacturer/supplier for information) Ensure gloves are suitable for the task: Chemical compatibility, Dexterity, Operational conditions, User susceptibility, e.g. sensitisation effects, also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion. Remove gloves with care avoiding skin contamination.
