Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
Remove contaminated clothing. Remove affected person from danger area. First aid personnel
should pay attention to their own safety. Show container, label and/or safety data sheet to physician.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
carbon dioxide, dry extinguishing media
Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:
water
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire. Collect contaminated extinguishing
water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems. Fire debris must be disposed of
in accordance with offical regulations.
6. Accidental
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions:
Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up:
For large amounts: Dike spillage. Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance
with regulations.
Handling and storage
Handling
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should
be kept handy.
Storage
Further information on storage conditions: Protect from air. Protect contents from the effects of light.
Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place. Protect against heat.

Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Gas filter EN141 Type A for gases/vapours of
organic compounds (boiling point >65 °C).
Hand protection:
Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact
(Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to
EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and
other
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 with EN 374.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (EN 166)
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting
boots, chemical-protection suit (according to DIN-EN 465).
General safety and hygiene measures:
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Wearing of closed work clothing is recommended.
Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. No eating, drinking, smoking or tobacco use
at the place of work.
Stability and reactivity
Thermal decomposition: > 200 °C
Hazardous reactions:
Reacts with acids.
Hazardous decomposition products:
No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated
Disposal considerations
Observe national and local legal requirements.
