Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
General information:
Take persons to a safe place. Observe self-protection for first aid. Always seek medical advice in the event of contact with this substance.
After contact with the eyes:
Rinse immediately with plenty of water for 10-15 minutes. Keep eyelids well open to rinse the whole eye surface and eyelids with water. Seek medical advice and clearly identify substance.
After contact with the skin:
Remove contaminated clothes at once. Wash off with plenty of water or water and soap immediately for 10-15 minutes. In serious cases, use emergency shower immediately. Seek medical advice immediately and clearly identify substance.
After inhalation:
Keep the patient calm. If unconscious place in stable sideways position. Protect against loss of body heat. If breathing stops, administer artificial respiration. Seek medical advice immediately and clearly identify substance.
After swallowing:
If conscious, give several small portions of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical advice immediately and clearly identify substance.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Any relevant information can be found in other parts of this section.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Symptoms of poisoning may not become apparent until after many hours - medical monitoring is therefore required for at least 48 hours after any accident. Further toxicology information must be observed.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
alcohol-resistant foam , carbon dioxide , water mist , sprinkler system , sand , extinguishing powder .
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons:
water jet .
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Risk of hazardous gasses or fumes in the event of fire. Exposure to combustion products may be a health hazard! Hazardous combustion products: toxic and very toxic fumes .
Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for fire fighting:
Use respiratory protection independent of recirculated air. Use tightly fitting chemical protection suit. Keep
unprotected persons away.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Secure the area. Wear personal protection equipment. Task force: Use tightly fitting chemical protection suit. Keep unprotected persons away. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not inhale gases/vapours/aerosols. Do not walk through spilled material. Ensure adequate ventilation. If material is released indicate risk of slipping.
Environmental precautions
Prevent material from entering surface waters, drains or sewers and soil. Close leak if possible without risk. Contain any fluid that runs out using suitable material (e.g. earth). Retain contaminated water/extinguishing water. Dispose of in prescribed marked containers. Inform authorities if substance leaks into surface waters, sewerage or ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Take up mechanically and dispose of according to local/state/federal regulations. Do not flush away with water. For small amounts: Absorb with a neutral (non-acidic / non-basic) liquid binding material such as diatomaceous earth and dispose of according to government regulations. For large amounts: Liquids may be recovered using suction devices or pumps. If flammable, only air driven or properly rated electrical equipment should be used. Clean any slippery coating that remains using a detergent / soap solution or another biodegradable cleaner. Silicone fluids are slippery; spills are a safety hazard. Apply sand or other inert granular material to improve traction.
Further information: Exhaust vapours. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Consider explosion protection.
Reference to other sections
Relevant information in other sections has to be considered. This applies in particular for information given on personal protective equipment and on disposal.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Precautions for safe handling:
Ensure adequate ventilation. Must be syphoned off in situ. Spilled substance increases risk of slipping. Avoid formation of aerosols. In case of aerosol formation special protective measures are required (exhausting by suction, respiratory protection). Keep away from incompatible substances.
Precautions against fire and explosion:
Flammable vapors may accumulate and form explosive mixtures with air in containers, process vessels, including partial, empty and uncleaned containers and vessels, or other enclosed spaces. Keep away from sources of ignition and do not smoke. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic charging. Cool endangered containers with water.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Conditions for storage rooms and vessels:
Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Advice for storage of incompatible materials:
Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Further information for storage:
Store in a dry and cool place. Protect against moisture. Store container in a well ventilated place.
Storage class (TRGS 510): 3
Specific end use(s)
No data available.
If the annex to this safety data sheet contains exposure scenarios for end uses, the information provided therein has to be observed.
