First-aid measures

- Description of first aid measures

First-aid measures general : Get medical advice/attention.

First-aid measures after inhalation : Allow victim to breathe fresh air. Allow the victim to rest. Obtain medical attention if breathing

difficulty persists.

First-aid measures after skin contact : Remove affected clothing and wash all exposed skin area with mild soap and water, followed

by warm water rinse.

First-aid measures after eye contact : In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

First-aid measures after ingestion : If swallowed, immediately administer water (1/2 liter) only if victim is completely conscious/alert.

Do not induce vomiting.

- Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand.

Fire-fighting measures

- Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media : Foam. Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide. Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Fire hazard : This product is flammable. Heavier than air, vapours may travel long distances along ground, ignite and flash back to source.

Reactivity : To our knowledge, the product does not present any particular risk, under normal conditions of use.

- Advice for firefighters

Precautionary measures fire : Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection.

Pressure demand self-contained breathing apparatus should be provided to fire fighters in building or confined area where the material is stored.

Firefighting instructions : Avoid fire-fighting water to enter environment. Exercise caution when fighting any chemical fire.

Water should be used to keep exposed containers cool.

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

General measures : Supply fresh air. Equip cleanup crew with proper protection. No naked lights. No smoking. Use special care to avoid static electric charges.

Protective equipment : Respiratory protection equipment may be necessary.

Emergency procedures : Remove ignition sources.

- Environmental precautions

Avoid release to the environment. Prevent entry to sewers and public waters.

- Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up : Clean up any spills as soon as possible, using an absorbent material to collect it. Use suitable disposal containers.

Handling and storage

- Precautions for safe handling

Precautions for safe handling : Both local exhaust and good general room ventilation must be provided not only to control exposure but also to prevent formation of flammable mixtures. Take precautionary measures against static discharge during blending and transfer operations. Close container tightly after use.

Hygiene measures : Avoid all unnecessary exposure. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Wear suitable protective clothing. Ensure prompt removal from eyes, skin and clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.

- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Storage conditions : Maintain the storage temperature below 35°C. This storage temperature is intended to cover HSE-purposes and is valid within the period: shelflife + 3 months. For the technical application, see the specifications and the label. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly

closed. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames. - No smoking.

Incompatible products : Store separately from oxidising agents and strongly alkaline and strongly acidic materials.

Storage temperature : < 35 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection

1. Appropriate engineering controls: Use explosion proof ventilation equipment. Laboratory samples should be handled in a fumehood. Local exhaust and general ventilation must be adequate to meet exposure standards.

2. Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN374). Suitable materials for splash contact, e.g nitril (0.1 mm). For prolonged, direct contact protective index 6, corresponding to > 480 minutes of permeation time, is recommended. Examples, subordinate to previous recommendation: nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), latex (0.5mm), butyl (0.7mm).Take new gloves when they are dirty.

3. Skin and body protection: If skin contact or contamination of clothing is possible, protective clothing should be worn. Wear shoes conformed to EN345 type min S2.

4. Eye protection: Safety glasses. Wear eye-protectors conformed to EN166.

5. Respiratory protection: Where exposure through inhalation may occur from use, approved respiratory protection equipment is recommended. Use a mask EN140/136 + thread fitting EN148-1 + filter EN14387 type A or mask EN405 with filter EN141 type A.
