First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water.
Immediate Medical Attention
Seek medical attention for inhalation; consult an eye specialist for eye contact.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Prevent contact with air/oxygen (formation of peroxide). Handle under dry inert gas.
Keep container tightly closed. Keep under nitrogen.
Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374) Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374) Polyethylene-Laminate (PE laminate) - ca. 0.1 mm coating thickness Supplementary note: The specifications are based on own tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined in accordance to EN 374.
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (EN 186)
Breathing protection if ventilation is inadequate.
Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.
