symptoms, consult a doctor.

- For ingestion of large amounts: do not induce vomiting and get medical attention.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

For doctors: Mineral oil may be used to loosen and soften the material.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing agents: carbon dioxide, foam, fire-extinguishing powder.

Hazardous thermal decomposition products: in case of fire, may release irritant and toxic fumes.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

Firefighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus.

Additional information: cool endangered receptacles with water spray.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions and protective equipment:

Wear personal protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.

Provide adequate ventilation.

Measures for environmental protection:

Do not allow product to reach soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (soil, waterways, drains or sewers).

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Small spills: absorb spilled liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.

Large spills: stop spill if it can be done without danger. Dike. Pump as much liquid as possible with an explosion-proof pump or a

hand pump. Absorb the remaining liquid with inert absorbent. Collect in an appropriate container properly labelled. Close it for disposal.

Exposure controls / personal protection

· General protective and hygienic measures:

The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals. Emergency eye wash fountains

and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure.

Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.

Avoid contact with eyes and skin.

· Personal protective equipment

· Respiratory protection:

In case of insufficient ventilation:

Avoid breathing vapors by wearing an appropriate filter cartridge mask.

· Hand protection:

Protective gloves resistant to chemicals (standard EN 374-3). They should be replaced regularly and if there is any

indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough.

· Eye protection: Safety glasses

· Body protection:

Protective work clothing.

Personnel exposed to HOT MOLTEN or HOT LIQUID material should wear protective clothing that provides

protection against thermal burns.

· Risk management measures
