First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Supply person with fresh air. Remove person from danger area. Respiratory arrest - Artificial respiration apparatus necessary.
Symptoms: Headaches, Nausea, Dizziness, Irritation of the respiratory tract, Effects/damages the central nervous system
Remove polluted, soaked clothing immediately, wash thoroughly with plenty of water and soap, in case of irritation of the skin (flare), consult a doctor.
Symptoms: irritation of the skin (flare)
Remove contact lenses. Wash thoroughly for several minutes using copious water. Seek medical help if necessary.
Symptoms: Irritation of the eyes
Rinse the mouth thoroughly with water. Consult doctor immediately - keep Data Sheet available. Do not induce vomiting.
Symptoms: Danger of aspiration.
Immediate Medical Attention
Consult doctor immediately - keep Data Sheet available (Ingestion). Seek medical help if necessary (Eye contact). Consult a doctor (Skin contact).
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Foam, CO2, Extinction powder, Water jet spray
High volume water jet
In case of fire the following can develop: Oxides of carbon. Danger of bursting (explosion) when heated. Danger of explosion by prolonged heating. Explosive vapour/air or gas/air mixtures.
According to size of fire. Cool container at risk with water.
Firefighter Protection
For personal protective equipment see Section 8. Protective respirator with independent air supply.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Leave the danger zone if possible, use existing emergency plans if necessary.
If leakage occurs, dam up. Resolve leaks if this possible without risk.
Soak up with absorbent material
Materials: universal binding agent, sand, diatomaceous earth

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Ensure good ventilation. Keep away from sources of ignition - Do not smoke. Do not use on hot surfaces. Observe directions on label and instructions for use. Use working methods according to operating instructions. Take measures against electrostatic charging, if appropriate.
Keep out of access to unauthorised individuals. Not to be stored in gangways or stair wells. Observe special regulations for aerosols! Observe special storage conditions. Keep protected from direct sunlight and temperatures over 50°C. Store in a dry place. Store cool. Store in a well ventilated place.
General hygiene measures for the handling of chemicals are applicable. Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering areas in which food is consumed.
Keep away from sources of ignition - Do not smoke. Do not use on hot surfaces. Take measures against electrostatic charging, if appropriate.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Ensure good ventilation. This can be achieved by local suction or general air extraction. If this is insufficient to maintain the concentration under the WEL or AGW values, suitable breathing protection should be worn. Applies only if maximum permissible exposure values are listed here. Suitable assessment methods for reviewing the effectiveness of protection measures adopted include metrological and non-metrological investigative techniques. These are specified by e.g. EN 14042. EN 14042 "Workplace atmospheres. Guide for the application and use of procedures for the assessment of exposure to chemical and biological agents".
Protective nitrile gloves (EN ISO 374). Minimum layer thickness in mm: >= 0,4. Permeation time (penetration time) in minutes: >= 480. The breakthrough times determined in accordance with EN 16523-1 were not obtained under practical conditions. The recommended maximum wearing time is 50% of breakthrough time. Protective hand cream recommended. Additional information on hand protection - No tests have been performed. In the case of mixtures, the selection has been made according to the knowledge available and the information about the contents. Selection of materials derived from glove manufacturer's indications. Final selection of glove material must be made taking the breakthrough times, permeation rates and degradation into account. Selection of a suitable glove depends not only on the material but also on other quality characteristics and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. In the case of mixtures, the resistance of glove materials cannot be predicted and must therefore be tested before use. The exact breakthrough time of the glove material can be requested from the protective glove manufacturer and must be observed.
Tight fitting protective goggles with side protection (EN 166).
Normally not necessary. If OES or MEL is exceeded. Filter A P3 (EN 14387), code colour brown, white. Observe wearing time limitations for respiratory protection equipment.
Protective working garments (e.g. safety shoes EN ISO 20345, long-sleeved protective working garments).
