Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- General advice:
Get medical attention if any discomfort continues. Show Safety Data Sheet to the medical personnel.
- Following inhalation:
Move affected person to fresh air and keep warm and at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as collar, tie or belt.
- Following skin contact:
Remove affected person from source of contamination. Rinse immediately with plenty of water.
- Following eye contact:
Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes.
- Following ingestion:
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Remove any dentures. Give a few small glasses of water or milk to drink. Stop if the affected person feels sick as vomiting may be dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless under the direction of medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as collar, tie or belt.
- Most important symptoms and effects:
The severity of the symptoms described will vary dependent on the concentration and the length of exposure.
- Following inhalation: No specific symptoms known.
- Following skin contact: Prolonged contact may cause dryness of the skin.
- Following eye contact: No specific symptoms known. May be slightly irritating to the eyes.
- Following ingestion: May cause discomfort if swallowed. May cause stomach pain or vomiting
Fire-fighting measures
- Suitable extinguishing media:
The product is not flammable. Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder or water fog. Use fire-extinguishing media suitable for the surrounding fire.
- Unsuitable extinguishing media:
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
None known. Thermal decomposition or combustion products may include the following substances: Harmful gases or vapours.
- Advice for fire fighter:
Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove them from the fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out.
Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing. Firefighter's clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
Accidental release measures
- Personal precautions:
No action shall be taken without appropriate training or involving any personal risk. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel away from the spillage. Wear protective clothing and follow precautions for safe handling described in the safety data sheet. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage.
- Environmental precautions:
Slightly soluble in water. Aquatic toxicity is unlikely to occur. However, large or frequent spills may have hazardous effects on the environment. Collect spillage. Avoid discharge to the aquatic environment. Large Spillages: Inform the relevant authorities if environmental pollution occurs (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Clear up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Reuse or recycle products wherever possible. Approach the spillage from upwind. Collect spillage with a shovel and broom, or similar and reuse, if possible. Collect and place in suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely. Flush contaminated area with plenty of water. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage. Dispose of waste to licensed waste disposal site in accordance with the requirements of the local Waste Disposal Authority.
Handling and storage
- Precautions for safe handling:
Read and follow manufacturer's recommendations. Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of the safety data sheet. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use. Wash promptly if skin becomes contaminated. Take off contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. Change work clothing daily before leaving workplace.
- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Store away from incompatible materials. Store in accordance with local regulations.

Exposure controls / personal protection
1. Technical protection measures
Provide adequate ventilation. Good general ventilation should be adequate to control worker exposure to airborne contaminants.
2. Organisational protection measures
Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Clean equipment and the work area every day. Good personal hygiene procedures should be implemented. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
3. Hand protection
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. The most suitable glove should be chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information about the breakthrough time of the glove material. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves should comply with European Standard EN374. Considering the data specified by the glove manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are retaining their protective properties and change them as soon as any deterioration is detected. Frequent changes are recommended.
4. Feet protection
Appropriate footwear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contamination is possible.
5. Body protection
Appropriate additional protective clothing complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contamination is possible.
6. Eye protection
Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates eye contact is possible. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should comply with European Standard EN166. No specific eye protection required during normal use.
7. Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible. Provide adequate ventilation. Large Spillages: If ventilation is inadequate, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Stability and reactivity
1. Reactivity
See the other subsections of this section for further details.
2. Chemical stability
Stable at normal ambient temperatures and when used as recommended. Stable under the prescribed storage conditions.
3. Possibility of hazardous reactions
No potentially hazardous reactions known.
4. Conditions to avoid
There are no known conditions that are likely to result in a hazardous situation.
5. Incompatible materials
No specific material or group of materials is likely to react with the product to produce a hazardous situation.
6. Hazardous decomposition products
Does not decompose when used and stored as recommended. Thermal decomposition or combustion products may include the following substances: Harmful gases or vapours.
Disposal considerations
General Information:
The generation of waste should be minimised or avoided wherever possible. Reuse or recycle products wherever possible. This material and its container must be disposed of in a safe way. Disposal of this product, process solutions, residues and by-products should at all times comply with the requirements of environmental protection and waste disposal legislation and any local authority requirements.
Disposal methods:
Dispose of surplus products and those that cannot be recycled via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Waste packaging should be collected for reuse or recycling. Incineration or landfill should only be considered when recycling is not feasible. Waste should not be disposed of untreated to the sewer unless fully compliant with the requirements of the local water authority.
