Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product.
Take affected persons out into the fresh air.
Seek immediate medical advice.
- After inhalation:
Supply fresh air and to be sure call for a doctor.
In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation.
Provide oxygen treatment if affected person has difficulty breathing.
If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth.
- After skin contact:
After contact with skin, wash immediately almost 15 minutes with plenty of water.
- After eye contact:
Rinse opened eye for almost 15 minutes under running water.
- After swallowing:
Rinse mouth out with water.
- Emergency equipment:
Provide wash facilities for eyes and skin near work area.
Fire-fighting measures
Carbon dioxide, dry chemicals, foam, water spray (mist).
Use fire extinguishing methods suitable to surrounding conditions.
- Special hazards caused by the substance, its products of combustion or resulting gases:
High temperatures may liberate toxic or corrosive gases. Do not breathe smoke or vapours.
- Protective equipment:
Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.
Wear fully protective suit.
Accidental release measures
Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.
Avoid contact with skin.
Avoid contact with eyes.
Do not breathe gas/fumes/vapour.
- Measures for environmental protection:
Prevent from spreading (e.g. by damming-in or oil barriers).
Do not allow product to reach sewage system or any water course.
- Measures for cleaning/collecting:
Cover with dry lime or soda ash.
May require excavation of contaminated soil. Shovel up residues and place in a labelled sealable container for subsequent safe disposal.
Put leaking container into a labelled drum or overdrum.
Handling and storage
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures.
- Information about fire - and explosion protection:
Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke.
- Storage ; Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles:
Store in dry, cool, well-ventilated area.
Mechanical ventilation is recommended.
- Information about storage in one common storage facility: Not required.
- Further information about storage conditions:
Keep container tightly sealed.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: Not required.
- Additional information:
The lists valid during the making were used as basis.
* Personal protective equipment:
- General protective and hygienic measures:
The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals.
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Store protective clothing separately.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
- Respiratory protection:
In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device.
- Protection of hands:
Protective gloves
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation
- Material of gloves
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
- Penetration time of glove material
The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
- Eye protection: Tightly sealed goggles
- Body protection: Use protective suit.
Stability and reactivity
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Keep away from heat.
- Materials to be avoided:
Reacts with oxidizing agents.
Reacts with reducing agents.
Incompatible with bases
Reacts with acids.
- Dangerous reactions: No dangerous reactions known.
- Dangerous decomposition products:
Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Hydrogen bromide
Disposal considerations
- Recommendation:
Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system.
- Uncleaned packaging:
- Recommendation:
Disposal must be made according to official regulations.
