Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- Following inhalation:
Remove from area to fresh air.
Seek medical attention if respiratory irritation develops or if breathing becomes difficult.
- Following skin contact:
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of soap and water.
Seek medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
- Following eye contact:
For eye contact, flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes.
Hold eyelids apart to ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the surface of the eyes and lids with water.
Get medical attention.
- Following ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting.
If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration.
Call a physician.
Fire-fighting measures
- Suitable extinguishing media:
Foam, carbon dioxide (CO2), powder, water spray.
- Unsuitable extinguishing media:
Do not use water jets as they can disperse and spread fire.
- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
In combustion emits toxic fumes of carbon dioxide / carbon monoxide.
- Advice for fire fighter:
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Water mist may be used to cool closed containers.
Use personal protective equipment to protect skin/eyes.
Accidental release measures
- Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Move any people not authorised to contain the emergency out of the area.
Avoid coming in contact with the substance or handling containers without adequate protection.
Use the personal protective equipment described in section 'Exposure controls/personal protection'.
Use a respirator in the event of emissions/spillage of large quantities.
Eliminate all sources of ignition.
Remove all incompatible materials as outlined in section 'Stability and reactivity'.
- Environmental precautions:
Contain the spillage as far as possible.
Prevent spilled materials getting into the drainage system, wells, surface water or groundwater.
In the case of leaks into a water course, drains, or if the product has contaminated the ground or vegetation, contact the local authorities.
- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Do not use equipment that can generate sources of ignition when cleaning. Clean the spilled material mechanically and put it in an appropriate container for disposal in accordance with section 'Disposal considerations'. After collection, ventilate and clean the affected area with water before granting access. Do not flush the water used for cleaning into watercourses or down drains.
Handling and storage
- Precautions for safe handling:
Recommendations for safe use:
Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Advice on general occupational hygiene:
Do no eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
Wash face and hands thoroughly after handling.
Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Eliminate all sources of combustion.
Keep the container hermetically closed in a dry and well ventilated environment.
Do not store near heat sources or expose to direct sunlight, to preserve the quality of the product.
Keep away from incompatible materials (see section 'Stability and reactivity').
Keep away from food, feed and beverages.

1. Technical protection measures
Use preferably in a closed loop, or provide adequate localized extraction and ventilation systems.
2. Skin protection / of the Hand
The material the gloves are made of must be impermeable and stable when in contact with the substance. No specific information available on the suitability of the material and thickness of the gloves. Consult the glove manufacturer for specific information on the suitability of the gloves. Replace the gloves in the case of internal contamination, when punctured, or if external contamination cannot be removed. The actual duration of protection depends on the conditions of use.
3. Skin protection / of the body
Wear protective clothing resistant to chemical substances.
4. Eye / face protection
Goggles or protective visor.
5. Respiratory protection
Mask with A type filter for vapours and organic gases with a boiling point >65°C. (EN 149)
Stability and reactivity
1. Reactivity
Stable in normal conditions.
2. Chemical stability
Stable under normal conditions.
May form peroxides on prolonged exposure to air and light.
3. Possibility of hazardous reactions
None known in normal conditions.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods:
Recycle if possible, or send to an authorized incinerator. Follow the instructions in sections 'Accidental release measures' and 'Handling and storage' when handling waste spillages, taking the steps indicated in the same sections. We recommend recycling containers instead of disposal. Observe the local and national legislation in force.
