Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air, treat symptomatically. Get immediate medical attention
Skin contact: Wash off immediately with plenty of water. In case of persistent skin irritation, consult a physician.
Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. In case of persistent eye irritation, consult a physician.
Ingestion: Get immediate medical attention. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If conscious, washout mouth and give water to
drink.
Fire-fighting measures
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA :
Foam, Carbon dioxide, Dry powder, Other extinguishing agent suitable for Class B fires, For large fires, use water spray or fog, thoroughly drenching the burning material. Water mist may be used to cool closed containers.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA :
Do not use water unless flooding amounts are available.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD :
Combustible Liquid; may form combustible mixtures at or above the flash point. Empty containers may contain product residue. Do not
pressurize, cut, heat, weld, or expose containers to flame or other sources of ignition. May evolve oxides of carbon (COx) under fire conditions. May evolve oxides of phosphorus (POx) under fire conditions.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIRE FIGHTING :
In case of fire, wear a full face positive-pressure self contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
Accidental release measures
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Restrict access to area as appropriate until clean-up operations are complete. Use personal protective equipment. Stop or reduce any leaks if it is
safe to do so. Ventilate spill area if possible. Remove sources of ignition. Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Do not touch
spilled material. Have emergency equipment (for fires, spills, leaks, etc.) readily available. Notify appropriate government, occupational health and
safety and environmental authorities.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP
SMALL SPILLS: Soak up spill with absorbent material. Place residues in a suitable, covered, properly labeled container. Wash affected area.
LARGE SPILLS: Contain liquid using absorbent material, by digging trenches or by diking. Reclaim into recovery or salvage drums or tank truck for
proper disposal. Clean contaminated surfaces with water or aqueous cleaning agents. Contact an approved waste hauler for disposal of
contaminated recovered material. Dispose of material in compliance with regulations
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Prevent substance from entering sewers or waterways.
Handling and storage
HANDLING :
Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing. Do not take internally. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe aerosols. Keep the containers closed
when not in use. Have emergency equipment (for fires, spills, leaks, etc.) readily available. Ensure all containers are labeled. Do not use, store, spill or pour near heat, sparks or open flame.
STORAGE CONDITIONS :
Store in suitable labeled containers. Store the containers tightly closed. Store away from heat and sources of ignition. Have appropriate fire
extinguishers available in and near the storage area. Connections must be grounded to avoid electrical charges. Store separately from oxidizers.

Exposure controls / personal protection
ENGINEERING MEASURES :
General ventilation is recommended. The use of local exhaust ventilation is recommended to control emissions near the source. Laboratory samples should be handled in a fumehood. Provide mechanical ventilation of confined spaces.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
GENERAL ADVICE :
The use and choice of personal protection equipment is related to the hazard of the substance, the workplace and the way the substance is handled. In general, as a minimum precaution safety glasses with side-shields and workclothes protecting arms, legs and body should be used. In
addition any person visiting an area where this substance is handled should at least wear safety glasses with side-shields. The applicable European
standard can be found in EN 166.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION :
At ambient temperature none needed for vapour. If the substance is heated or if aerosol generation is likely, use of a half face filter mask. A suitable
filter material depends on the amount and type of chemicals being handled. Consider the use of filter type: A-P. The applicable European standard
can be found in EN 140, EN 137, EN 143 and EN 14387. In event of emergency or planned entry into unknown concentrations a positive pressure, full-face piece SCBA should be used. If respiratory protection is required, institute a complete respiratory protection program including selection, fit
testing, training, maintenance and inspection.
HAND PROTECTION :
When handling this substance, the use of chemical gauntlets is recommended. The choice of work glove depends on work conditions and what chemicals are handled, for light handling conditions consider using gloves made from PVC. Gloves should be replaced immediately if signs of degradation
are observed. The applicable European standard can be found in EN 374.
SKIN PROTECTION
When handling this product, the use of overalls, a chemical resistant apron and rubber boots is recommended.
The applicable European standard can be found in EN ISO 20345.
EYE PROTECTION
When handling this product, the use of splash chemical goggles is recommended. The applicable European
standard can be found in EN 166.
HYGIENE RECOMMENDATIONS :
Keep an eye wash fountain available. Keep a safety shower available. If clothing is contaminated, remove clothing and thoroughly wash the affected area. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE CONTROL PRECAUTIONS :
Consider the provision of containment around storage vessels.
Stability and reactivity
STABILITY
Stable under normal conditions.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION
Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID
Heat and sources of ignition including static discharges.
MATERIALS TO AVOID
Contact with strong oxidizers (e.g. chlorine, peroxides, chromates, nitric acid, perchlorate, concentrated oxygen,
permanganate) may generate heat, fires, explosions and/or toxic vapors.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS :
Under fire conditions: Oxides of carbon, Oxides of phosphorus
Disposal considerations
Use only authorized contractors. Ensure compliance with EC, national and local regulations.
Dispose of wastes in an approved incinerator or waste treatment/disposal site, in accordance with all applicable regulations. Do not dispose of wastes in local sewer or with normal garbage. This substance is ashless and can be burned directly in appropriate equipment. Any chemical waste is a
potential environmental pollutant and is NOT suitable for disposal via ground, municipal sewers, drains, natural streams or rivers.
Empty drums should be taken for recycling, recovery, or disposal through a suitably qualified or licensed contractor.
