3. Composition / Information on Ingredients

4. First Aid Measures

Ingestion

• Wash mouth out with water
• Do not induce vomiting; call for medical help immediately.
• If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration.

Inhalation

Supply fresh air; consult doctor in case of complaints.

Skin Contact

Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. If skin irritation continues, consult a doctor.

Eye Contact

• Check for and remove any contact lenses.
• Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.

Other Information

• No adverse effects expected. No special treatment required.
• Information for doctor: Treat symptomatically and supportively.

5. Firefighting Measures

Suitable extinguishing equipment

Fire

• Suitable extinguishing agents:
• CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam. Use fire
• extinguishing methods suitable to surrounding conditions.
• For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: Water with full jet

HAZCHEM

None

Special protective equipment and precautions for fire fighters

6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Particular danger of slipping on leaked/spilled product. Ensure adequate ventilation.

Environmental precautions

• Do not allow to penetrate the ground/soil.
• Do not allow to enter sewers/ surface or ground water.
• Inform respective authorities in case of seepage into water course or sewage system.

Methods and materials for containment and clean up

Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g.sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations.

7. Handling and Storage

Precautions for safe handling

• Avoid eye and prolonged skin contact.
• Do not heat up to temperatures close to flash point.

Conditions for safe storage

• Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Prevent any seepage into the ground.
• Information about storage in one common storage facility: Store away from oxidising agents.
• Further information about storage conditions: Store in cool, dry conditions in well sealed receptacles.
• Store in a bunded area.
• Storage class: 10

8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Exposure Standards

Engineering controls

• Eye washes should be available for emergency use. The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
• Do not eat, drink, smoke or sniff while working.
• Do not carry product impregnated cleaning cloths in trouser pockets.
• Environmental exposure controls: Do not allow to enter drains, sewers or watercourses.

Personal protective equipment

Eye and face protection

• If splashes are likely to occur wear safety glasses.
• Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166.
• Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin protection

• Wash hands after use. For prolonged or repeated skin contact gloves are recommended.
• Use gloves tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US)
• or EN374 (EU).
• The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
• Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
• degradation
• Material of gloves: Nitrile rubber, NBR Neoprene gloves
• The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of
• quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
• Penetration time of glove material:
• Break-through time: > 480 minutes
• The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to
• be observed.

Body protection

Body protection must be chosen depending on product properties, activity and possible exposure. Wear coveralls

Respiratory protection

Do not inhale gases / fumes / aerosols. Use suitable respiratory protective device in case of insufficient ventilation.
