Ingestion: No special measures required.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: No additional information available
Fire-fighting measures

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters: The usual precautions for handling chemicals should be observed.
Personal protection
Respiratory: In case of dust formation use dust mask. Dust exposure limits have to be respected.
Hand: For permanent (>480 minutes), full contact use, 100% nitrile gloves conforming to EN 374, e.g. KCL Dermatril 740 are recommended.
If used under conditions other than given above it is recommended that a supplier of CE approved gloves is
contacted.
These recommendations are only applicable to the chemical as supplied by Akzo Nobel; if mixed with or
dissolved in other substances please contact a supplier of CE approved gloves (e.g. KCL International +49 66
59870, fax +49 6659 87155).
Eye: Wear eye/face protection.
Skin and body: Wear protective gloves, eye/face protection and protective clothing.
Stability and reactivity
Conditions to avoid: Reaction with strong oxidising agents. Product layer on hot surface might cause glowing or autoignition.
Chemical stability: Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions (see section on Handling and Storage)
Incompatible materials: Avoid contact with aluminium, zinc, nickel, copper and copper alloys in combination with humidity/ water (for example:
Formation of: hydrogen).
Hazardous decomposition products: Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions (nitrous gases (NOx))
Disposal considerations
Product: According to local regulations.
Contaminated packaging: No specific recommendations.
