First-aid measures
Signs and symptoms of exposure: To our knowledge adverse effects to humans have not been reported. In animal tests convulsions were seen.
Emergency and first aid procedures:
Inhalation: If experiencing any discomfort, immediately remove from exposure. Get medical attention if discomfort does not disappear.
Ingestion: Let the exposed person rinse mouth with water and let him/her drink several glasses of water or milk, but do not induce vomiting. If vomiting does occur, rinse mouth and give fluids again. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with much water or eyewash solution, occasionally opening eyelids, until no evidence of chemical remains. Remove contact lenses after a few minutes and flush again. See physician if irritation develops.
Skin contact: Immediately flush skin with much water while removing contaminated clothing and footwear. Wash with water and soap. See physician if any symptom develops.
Note to physician: There is no specific antidote against this substance. Treatment is supportive and symptomatic. Gastric lavage and/or administration of activated charcoal can be considered.

Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media and procedure: Dry chemical or carbon dioxide for small fires, water spray or foam for large fires.
Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapours and toxic decomposition products. Fight fire from protected location or maximum possible distance. Avoid heavy hose streams. Dike area to prevent water runoff. Firemen should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Hazardous decomposition products in a fire The essential breakdown products are hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and various chlorinated and fluorinated organic compounds.

Accidental release measures
Personal protection: Observe all protection and safety precautions when cleaning up spills. Depending on the magnitude of the spill this may mean wearing respiratory protection, safety glasses or face mask, gloves, chemical resistant clothing and rubber boots, see "Disposal considerations".
Steps to be taken in case of spill: It is recommended to have a predetermined plan for the handling of spills. Empty closable vessels for the collection of spills should be available.
Stop the source of the spill immediately if safe to do so. Contain the spill to prevent any further contamination of surface, soil or water.
Spills on the floor or other impervious surface should be contained or diked and then recovered by pumping or absorbed onto an absorptive material such as universal binder, Fuller’s earth or other absorbent clays. Collect the material and contaminated absorbent in suitable containers. Rinse area with much water and industrial detergent. Wash waters must be prevented from entering surface water drains.
Large spills which soak into the ground should be dug up and placed in suitable containers.
Spills in water should be contained as much as possible by isolation of the contaminated water. The contaminated water must be collected and removed for treatment or disposal. Uncontrolled discharge into water courses must be alerted to the appropriate regulatory body.
The used containers should be properly closed and labelled.

Handling and storage
Precautions to be taken in handling: In an industrial environment it is recommended to avoid all personal contact with the product, by using closed systems and remote system control. Adequate ventilation or local exhaust ventilation is required. The exhaust gases should be filtered or treated otherwise. For personal protection in this situation, see "Exposure controls / personal protection".
Precautions to be taken in storing: The product is stable under normal conditions of warehouse storage. Store in closed, labelled containers.
Specific use: The product is an intermediate meant for specific industrial applications.
Fire and explosion precautions: Protect from exposure to fire and heat.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure limit values: Not established. A personal exposure limit of 100 ppm (884 mg/m3) is recommended by the manufacturer. The substance has the potential to penetrate the skin.
Personal protection: When used in a closed system, personal protection equipment will not be required. The following is meant for other situations, when the use of a closed system is not possible, for example in case of maintenance, repair, sampling or in case of spill. Consider the need to render equipment or piping system non-hazardous before opening.
Respiratory protection: In the event of discharge of the material which produces a heavy vapour or mist, workers should put on an officially approved face mask or full-face respirator with a universal filter type including particle filter.
Protective gloves: Wear chemical resistant gloves, such as barrier laminate, nitrile rubber or butyl rubber. The breakthrough times for the product are unknown. It is recommended to limit the work to be done manually and to change the gloves frequently.
Eye protection: Wear safety glasses. It is recommended to have an emergency eye wash fountain immediately available in the work area when there is a potential for eye contact.
Other protection: Wear chemical resistant clothes.
Work/hygienic practices: Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Do not breathe vapour or mist.
Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash thoroughly after handling. Before removing gloves, wash them with water and soap. After work, take off all work clothes and footwear. Take a shower, using water and soap. Wear only clean clothes when leaving job. Wash protective clothing and protective equipment with water and soap after each use.
