First-aid measures
Most important symptoms and effects
Causes burns. Causes injury to the cornea and eyelids. Risk of serious damage to eyes. Irritating to respiratory system, may caused delayed pulmonary oedema.
Description of first aid measures
General
Call a physician immediately.
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Oxygen may additionally be given, by trained personnel, if it is available. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin
Immediately start continuous flushing of skin with water for at least 15 minutes, while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean or destroy contaminated shoes.
Eye
Immediately start continuous flushign of eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to do, contact lenses should be removed during the flushing, by trained personnel. Hold the eyelids apart during the flushing to ensure rinsing the entire surface of the eye and lids with water. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion
DO NOT induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately by calling a physician or a poison control center. If victim is conscious and alert, give a cupful of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. If vomiting occurs, the patient should lie on their left side while vomiting to reduce the risk of aspiration.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Persons with pre-existing skin, eye, or respiratory disease may be at increased risk from the irritant or allergic properties of this material.
Irrigate burn area with large amounts of water to decontaminate, if not already done. Chemical burns on the skin should then be treated like thermal burns. Skin reactions may take 24-48 hours to develop. If eyes are affected, flush eyes with buffered or plain irrigating solutions for at least 15 minutes, if not already done. If any ulceration or conjunctival injury is present, have an ophthalmologist examine the patient. Application of cool water helps relieve pain and swelling of both the skin and eyes. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Give patient plenty of water to dring. Ingestion of this corrosive material may cause severe ulceration, inflammation, and possible perforation of the gastrointestinal tract. Maintain adequate airway. Aspiration during induced emesis can result in severe lung injury. Contact a Posion Control Center for additional treatment. Treat any additional effects symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
CO2, dry chemical powder, dry sand, foam.
Unsuitable extinguishing media
Water. See also Section: Other information
Hazardous decomposition / combustion products
CO2, Carbon monoxide.
Hydrochloric acid, chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Protective equipment
Firefighters must wear fire resistant protective equipment. Wear approved respirator and protective gloves.
Other information
Evacuate all non-essential personnel. Consider to let it burn out completely. Waterspray may only be used by experienced fire fighters. Cool closed containers with water. After a fire, ventilate thoroughly the area and soak with water, clean the walls and metallic surfaces.
Fire and explosion hazard
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
Do not breathe fumes/vapour. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. For personal protection see Section: Exposure controls / personal protection.
Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter drains or water courses.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Stop leakage if possible. Allow controlled hydrolysis. Collect as much as possible in a clean container for (preferable) reuse or disposal. Cover the remainder with iner absorbent (e.g. vermiculite) for disposal.
Other information
Evacuate personnel to safe area.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Do not pipet by mouth. Do not breathe fumes/vapour. Handle in well ventilated areas. Avoid contact with moisture and water. Keep under nitrogen. Handle only in close system. During sampling, disconnecting lines or opening connections, an aluminised suit should be worn. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid incompatible materials (See Section: Stability and reactivity).
Fire and explosion prevention
No specific recommendations.
Conditions for safe storage
Store in accordance with local/national regulations. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Keep under dry nitrogen containing less than 10 ppm oxygen. Protect product from moisture and wet air. Keep container tightly closed and in a well-ventilated place. Keep container upright to prevent leakage.
Other information
Wash hands thoroughly after handling or contact. Keep working clothing separately and do not take them home.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters
Ensure good ventilation and local exhaustion of the working area.
Personal protection
Respiratory
Wear acid vapour mask.
Hand
Wear acid resistant gloves (PVC or rubber).
Eye
Wear safety goggles.
Skin and body
Wear acid resistant clothing and protective boots
Other information
Emergency-shower and facilities for rinsing eyes must be accessible. Launder clothes before reuse.
Stability and reactivity
Conditions to avoid
No specific recommendations
Chemical stability
Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions (see Section Handling and storage)
Incompatible materials
Water and lower alcohols. Corrosive to metals. Keep away from oxidising agents, strong acid and strong alkaline.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Polymerization does not occur.
Hazardous decomposition products
Hydrochloric acid, chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Disposal considerations
Product
Refer to manufacturer/supplier for information on recovery/recycling. Waste disposal in accordance with regulations (most probably controlled incineration).
Contaminated packaging
According to local regulations. Emptied container might retain product residues. Follow all warnings even after the container is emptied.
Other information
For further advice contact manufacturer.
Waste code number
Please refer to your specific industry in the European Waste Catalogue.
