First-aid measures

If inhaled : Move person into fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of skin contact :  Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash off with soap and water. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of eye contact :  Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 5 minutes. Remove contact lenses. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

If swallowed :  Rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Call a physician immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Symptoms : Harmful if swallowed. Liver disorders

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed : Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media :  Water mist, Dry powder, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Sand, Aqueous film forming foam (AFFF). Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Unsuitable extinguishing media :  Water spray jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Hazardous combustion products :  Carbon oxides

Special protective equipment for firefighters :  In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.  

Further information :  In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions :  Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.

Environmental precautions :  Should not be released into the environment.

Methods for cleaning up :  Small spills: Gently cover the spill with an absorbent towel or pad.

Large spills: Dam up. Soak up with inert absorbent material. Keep in properly labelled containers.

Large spills + Small spills: Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Treat recovered material as described in the section "Disposal considerations".

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling : To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat. Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes.

Hygiene measures : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.  

Requirements for storage areas and containers : To maintain product quality, do not store in heat or direct sunlight. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store in original container. Store at room temperature.  

Recommended storage temperature :  15 - 25 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control possible exposures. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep exposure levels below recommended exposure limits. All personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment. Consult a Environment Health Safety expert if necessary.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection :  Safety glasses with side-shields

Hand protection material : Nitrile rubber

Remarks : Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact). Impervious gloves  

Skin and body protection :  closed work clothing

Respiratory protection :  Engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures. If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type as well as the corresponding protection factor will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present. Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards. Respirator with a vapour filter ABEK.

Protective measures :  The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity : None reasonably foreseeable.

Chemical stability : Stable under recommended storage conditions.

Hazardous reactions : No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Conditions to avoid : To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat. Heat, flames and sparks.

Materials to avoid : Oxidizing and spontaneously flammable products

Hazardous decomposition products : Carbon oxides

Disposal considerations

Product :  Must be incinerated in a suitable incineration plant holding a permit delivered by the competent authorities. In accordance with National, Federal, State and Local regulations.

Contaminated packaging :  Empty containers should be taken to an approved waste handling site for recycling or disposal.
