First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to fresh air. If breathing stops: mouth-to-mouth breathing or artificial respiration. Oxygen if necessary.
Symptoms: Cough, Shortness of breath, Dizziness, drowsiness, confusion
Wash off with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing.
Symptoms: Dermatitis
Rinse out with plenty of water with the eyelid held wide open. Call in ophthalmologist if necessary.
Symptoms: irritant effects
Caution if victim vomits. Keep airways free. Call a physician immediately.
Symptoms: Risk of aspiration! Pulmonary failure possible after aspiration of vomit.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediately call in physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Dry powder
For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.
Combustible. Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Pay attention to flashback. Forms explosive mixtures with air at elevated temperatures. Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.
Remove container from danger zone and cool with water.
Firefighter Protection
Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Do not let product enter drains. Risk of explosion.
Take up with liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb®). Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.
Materials: liquid-absorbent material (e.g. Chemizorb®)

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Work under hood. Do not inhale substance/mixture. Avoid generation of vapours/aerosols. Observe label precautions.
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Recommended storage temperature see product label.
Immediately change contaminated clothing. Apply preventive skin protection. Wash hands and face after working with substance.
Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharge.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment. See section 7.1.
full contact: Glove material: Nitrile rubber, Glove thickness: 0,40 mm, Break through time: > 480 min; splash contact: Glove material: Nitrile rubber, Glove thickness: 0,11 mm, Break through time: > 30 min. The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 730 Camatril® -Velours (full contact), KCL 741 Dermatril® L (splash contact). The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types.
Safety glasses
required when vapours/aerosols are generated. Recommended Filter type: Filter A (acc. to DIN 3181) for vapours of organic compounds. The entrepreneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.
Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing
Do not let product enter drains. Risk of explosion.
