Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety. Remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open,
consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention.
Note to physician:
Treatment: Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions).
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, water
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Do not breathe vapour/spray.
Environmental precautions:
Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up:
For small amounts: Pick up with suitable absorbent material (e.g. sand, sawdust, general-purpose
binder, kieselguhr).
For large amounts: Dike spillage. Vacuum up spilled product.
For residues: Contain with absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, general purpose
binder, sawdust).
Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Handling and storage
Handling
Processing machines must be fitted with local exhaust ventilation.
Temperature class: T3 (Autoignition temperature >200 °C).
Storage
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place.
Keep under inert gas. Protect contents from the effects of light.
Storage stability:
Storage temperature: < 25 °C
Protect from temperatures below: 0 °C
Characteristics of the product are irreversibly changed below the limit temperature.
Protect from temperatures above: 20 °C
Damage by exceeding the maximum temperature is not reversible. The packed product must be
protected against exceeding the indicated temperature.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Components with workplace control parameters
128-37-0: 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid
and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2)
Hand protection:
Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact
(Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN
374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) and other
Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove
manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g.
temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice
may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting
boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of
dust).
General safety and hygiene measures:
Under no circumstances should the product come into contact with the skin of pregnant women or be
inhaled by them. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Stability and reactivity
Conditions to avoid:
Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat. Avoid contact with air.
Hazardous reactions:
No hazardous reactions if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Hazardous decomposition products:
No hazardous decomposition products if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Disposal considerations
Observe national and local legal requirements.
