Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- General Information: Not expected to be a health hazard when used under normal conditions.
- Inhalation: No treatment necessary under normal conditions of use. If symptoms persist, obtain medical advice.
- Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with water and follow by washing with soap if available. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.
- Eye Contact: Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.
- Ingestion: Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. In general no treatment is necessary unless large quantities are swallowed, however, get medical advice.
- Self-protection of the first aider: When administering first aid, ensure that you are wearing the appropriate personal protective equipment according to the incident, injury and surroundings.
- Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhoea.
- Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
Fire-fighting measures
- General precautions: Clear fire area of all non-emergency personnel.
- Extinguishing Media: Foam, water spray or fog. Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, sand or earth may be used for small fires only.
- Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Do not use water in a jet.
- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: Hazardous combustion products may include: A complex mixture of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases (smoke). Carbon monoxide. Unidentified organic and inorganic compounds.
- Advice for firefighters: Proper protective equipment including chemical resistant gloves are to be worn; chemical resistant suit is indicated if large contact with spilled product is expected. Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus must be worn when approaching a fire in a confined space. Select fire fighter's clothing approved to relevant Standards (e.g. Europe: EN469).
Accidental release measures
- General precautions: Avoid contact with spilled or released material. Observe the relevant local and international regulations.
- Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures: Remove all sources of ignition.
- For non-emergency personnel: Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- For emergency responders: Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Environmental Precautions: Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Prevent from entering drains, ditches or rivers by using appropriate barriers. Avoid subsoil penetration.
- Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up: Shovel into a suitable clearly marked container for disposal or reclamation in accordance with local regulations.
Handling and storage
- General Precautions: Use local exhaust ventilation if there is risk of inhalation. Carry out a risk assessment of local circumstances to help determine appropriate controls for safe handling, storage and disposal of this material.
- Precautions for Safe Handling: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid inhaling vapour and/or mists. When handling product in containers (drums, sacks, pails, etc...), safety footwear should be worn and proper handling equipment should be used. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
- Storage: Keep containers tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place. Use properly labelled and closeable containers.
- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
- Additional Information: Keep in the original containers.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Implement of basic standards of occupational hygiene. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash with water thoroughly after handling.
Stability and reactivity
Store in accordance with local regulations. Keep in the original containers. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Disposal considerations
Dispose in accordance with local regulations. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
