First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Provide fresh air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, immediately seek medical assistance and start first aid actions. Keep affected person warm, still and covered.
Wash with plenty of soap and water.
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Immediate Medical Attention
If breathing is irregular or stopped, immediately seek medical assistance. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Medical Treatment
None.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
water spray, alcohol resistant foam, fire extinguishing powder, carbon dioxide (CO2)
water jet
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Co-ordinate firefighting measures to the fire surroundings. Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.
Firefighter Protection
Use suitable breathing apparatus
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe vapour/spray.
Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs.
Do not eat, drink and smoke in work areas. Wash hands after use. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use local and general ventilation.
Material: IIR (isobutene-isoprene (butyl) rubber) (≥ 0,6 mm, >480 minutes), NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber) (≥ 0,4 mm, >480 minutes), PVC (polyvinyl chloride) (≥ 0,5 mm, >480 minutes), CR (chloroprene rubber) (≥ 0,5 mm, >480 minutes), PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) (no information available). Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.
Wear eye/face protection. (EN 166).
In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. (EN 136, EN 140, EN 14387, EN 143, EN 149). Type: A-P2 (combined filters against particles and organic gases and vapours, colour code: Brown/White).
Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination. Keep away from drains, surface and ground water.
