In case of accident or unwellness, seek medical advice immediately (show directions for use orsafety data sheet if possible).
Treatment:Treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:Water.Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons:None in particular.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Do not inhale explosion and combustion gases.Burning produces heavy smoke.
Advice for firefighters
Use suitable breathing apparatus .
Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged intodrains.
Move undamaged containers from immediate hazard area if it can be done safely.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non emergency personnel: Wear personal protection equipment. Wear breathing apparatus if exposed to vapours/dusts/aerosols.Provide adequate ventilation.Use appropriate respiratory protection.See protective measures under point 7 and 8.
For emergency responders:Wear personal protection equipment.
Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil. Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains.Retain contaminated washing water and dispose it.In case of gas escape or of entry into waterways, soil or drains, inform the responsibleauthorities.Suitable material for taking up: absorbing material, organic, sand
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Wash with plenty of water.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes, inhalation of vapours and mists.Use localized ventilation system.Don't use empty container before they have been cleaned.
Before making transfer operations, assure that there aren't any incompatible material residuals in the containers. Contamined clothing should be changed before entering eating areas. Do not eat or drink while working.See also section 8 for recommended protective equipment.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
The product may absorb water if not stored under the specified conditions. This could affect reativity, appearance, and performance. Therefore, keep hermetically sealed packagings to avoid contamination. Keep in the original container well closed. Do not store in open or unlabelled containers. Keep containers in a vertical and safe position avoiding the possibility of falls or bumps. Store in a cool place away from any source of heat and direct exposure to sunlight.
Keep away from food, drink and feed.
Incompatible materials: None in particular.
Instructions as regards storage premises: Adequately ventilated premises.
Specific end use(s)
None in particular
