                    Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Avoid inhalation.

                    Wear protective gloves/protective clothing and eye/face protection.

                    In case of leakage, eliminate all ignition sources.

                    Avoid heat and sparks.

For emergency responders:       In case of large amounts:

                    Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing.

                    No further precautions additionally to the emergency procedures for non-emergency personnel.

Environmental precautions:       Do not allow to enter surface water or drains.

                    Do not alliw to enter into soil/subsoil.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

In case of large amounts:              Pump off product. Collect spillage.

For residues:              Soak up inert absorbent and dispose as waste requiring special attention.

Suitable material for taking up:       Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceous earth, acid- or universal binding agents).

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

      Work in well-ventilated zones or use proper respiratory protection.

      Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapours/spray.

      Only use the material in places where open light, fire and other flammable sources can be kept away.
