First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures:

General information: May cause central nervous system depression with nausea, vomiting, dizziness and drowsiness.

Target organs: respiratory system, gastrointestinal system, eyes, skin.

IN CASE OF INGESTION:

Measures:

-       If swallowed, call a physician or poison control centre immediately.

-       Do not give the victim anything to eat or drink, and do not induce vomiting if the victim is unconscious.

-       Do not induce vomiting unless instructed by medical personnel.

-       Obtain medical help.

-       Flush the mouth of the injured person with water.

IN CASE OF INHALATION: Measures:

-       Take the victim into fresh air, loosen his clothes and let him rest.

-       If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel.

-       Get immediate medical attention.

IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT: Measures:

-       Immediately wash skin with mild soap and plenty of water.

-       Remove the contaminated clothes and shoes.

-       Get medical attention especially, if irritation develops, persists or symptoms of overexposure become apparent

-       Wash clothing before reuse.

IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT:

Measures:

-       Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Assure adequate flushing of the eyes by separating the eyelids with fingers.

-       Get medical attention especially, if irritation develops, persists or symptoms of overexposure become apparent

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

May cause central nervous system depression with nausea, vomiting, dizziness and drowsiness.

Target organs: respiratory system, gastrointestinal system, eyes, skin.

Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.

Skin contact: Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes skin burn.

Eye contact: Causes eye irritation.

Ingestion: Toxic if swallowed. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Notes to physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:

Suitable extinguishing media: Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide or polymer foam. In cases of larger fires water spray should be used.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:None known.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

Flammability class: C

Formation of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen fluoride and other toxic gases in the event of fire or during thermal decomposition.

Advice for firefighters:

Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.

Fight fire in early stages if safe to do so.

Fire in vicinity poses risk of pressure build-up and rupture.

Containers at risk of fire should be cooled with water and, if possible, removed from danger area.

When extinguishing with water pay attention to caustic burns.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions. orotective eouipment and emereencv procedures:

For non-emergency personnel:

Keep unprotected people away, allow only well trained experts wearing suitable protective clothing to abide in the field of accident.

For emergency responders:

Use proper personal protective equipment as listed in section 8. Use only non-sparking tools and equipment.

Keep unauthorized persons away.

Environmental precautions:

Dispose of spillage and waste (product/packaging) in accordance with all applicable environmental laws. Do not allow the substance and the resulting waste to enter sewers/soil/surface or ground water. Notify the respective authorities in accordance with local law in the case of environmental pollution immediately.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Avoid formation of dust Collect the spilled material with non-combustible absorbent, then place into a suitable, closed, properly labelled chemical waste container for removal/disposal.

Remove all ignition sources from the affected area.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Use only non-sparking tools and equipment

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

Observe conventional hygiene precautions.

This product should be handled only by, or under close supervision of, those properly qualified in the handling and use of

potentially hazardous chemicals, who should take into account the fire, health and chemical hazard data.

Care should be taken to prevent any chemical from coming into contact with the skin or eyes and from contaminating

personal clothing.

Wash thoroughly after handling.

Avoid inhaling vapour.

Technical measures:

It should be always be handled in an efficient fume hood or equivalent system.

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Keep unauthorized persons away.

Precautions against fire and explosion:

Use only non-sparking tools and equipment

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

Technical measures and storage condition:

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of heat and incompatible substances.

Keep container tightly closed when not in use.

Do not expose to direct sunlight

Incompatible materials: none known.

Packaging material: no special prescriptions

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls:

In case of a hazardous material with no controlled concentration limit it is the employer's duty to keep concentration levels down to a minimum achievable by existing scientific and technological means, where the hazardous substance poses no harm to workers.

Appropriate engineering controls

In pursuance of work is proper foresight needed to avoid spilling onto clothes and floors and to avoid contact with eyes

and skin. Avoid inhaling vapour.

Wash body thoroughly after open handling of product

Keep working clothes separate.

It should be always be handled in an efficient fume hood or equivalent system.

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Use only non-sparking tools and equipment

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment:

1. Eye/face protection: use adequate, tightly sealed protective goggles (EN 1669). Eyewash bottle with clear water should be available.

2. Skin protection:

a.       Hand protection: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure, up to elbow length (e.g. of rubber or PVC, EN 374).

b.       Other: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure (acid-proof overalls) and boots impervious to material.

3. Respiratory protection: use appropriate respiratory protective device, if necessary. Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection or use. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is a potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known or under any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.

4. Thermal hazard: none known.

Environmental exposure controls:

No specific prescription.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity:No data available.

Chemical stability:No data available.

Possibility of hazardous reactions:Hazardous reactions will not occur.

Conditions to avoid:Avoid contact with ignition sources. Avoid formation of dust. Keep away from excess heat. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
