Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

General advice :

 Call a doctor immediately if allergic signs, particularly in the respiratory tract, are observed. In the case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible). First aider needs to protect himself. Move out of dangerous area. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.

Inhalation:

 Remove to fresh air immediately. Get medical attention immediately. Keep patient warm and at rest. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.

Skin contact:

 Take victim immediately to hospital. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of water. Do NOT use solvents or thinners. Contact a poison control center.

Eye contact:

 Protect unharmed eye. Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tissue damage and blindness. If easy to do, remove contact lens, if worn. In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

Ingestion:

 If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. If a person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the recovery position.  

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media :

 Dry powder, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Water spray jet, Foam

Specific hazards:

 Hazardous decomposition products may be formed under fire conditions (see section 10). Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

 In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.

Further information:

 Standard procedure for chemical fires. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

 Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. Use personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Immediately evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid inhalation of vapor or mist. Remove all sources of ignition.

Environmental precautions:

 Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Methods for cleaning up:

 Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly.

Handling and storage

Handling

Advice on safe handling:

 For personal protection see section 8. Limit the stocks at work place.  Use with local exhaust ventilation. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Handle with care. Persons with a history of skin sensitisation problems or asthma, allergies, chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this mixture is being used.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:

 Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

 

Dust explosion class:

 not applicable

Storage

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

 Keep locked up or in an area accessible only to qualified or authorised persons. Store in original container. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Store in a cool and shaded area. Keep in an area equipped with solvent resistant flooring. Keep in an area equipped with alkali resistant flooring

Advice on common storage:

 Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Incompatible with acids. Incompatible with oxidizing agents.
