First-aid measures

If inhaled

If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physic

ian.

In case of skin contact

Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.

In case of eye contact

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.

If swallowed

Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with

water. Consult a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

For small (incipient) fires, use media such as "alcohol" foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. For

large

fires, apply water from as far as possible. Use very large quantities (flooding) of water applied as a

mist or

spray; solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities

of

water.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Carbon oxides

Advice for firefighters

Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.

Further information

Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation.

Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapours accumulating to

form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.

Environmental precautions

Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing

and

place in container for disposal according to local regulations

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist.

Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.Take measures to prevent the build up of electrosta

tic

charge.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which

are

opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.

appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin protection

Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique

(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of

contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.

Wash and dry hands.

The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and

the standard EN 374 derived from it.

Body Protection

impervious clothing, Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing, The type of protective

equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous

substance at the specific workplace.

Respiratory protection

Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator

with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup

to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air

respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).

Stability and reactivity

Conditions to avoid

Avoid moisture.

Heat, flames and sparks. Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.

Incompatible materials

acids, Strong oxidizing agents

Disposal considerations

Product

Burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber but exert extra care in igni

ting

as this material is highly flammable. Offer surplus and non-recyclable solutions to a licensed disposal

company. Contact a licensed professional waste disposal service to dispose of this material.

Contaminated packaging
