First-aid measures

Inhalation:

Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Ingestion:

Wash out mouth with water. Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.

If material has been swallowed and the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink.

Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Skin contact:

Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Eye contact:

Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids.

Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention if irritation occurs.

Protection of first-aiders:

No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.

Notes to physician:

Symptomatic treatment

Fire-fighting measures

- Extinguishing media

Suitable:

Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.

Not suitable:

None known.

Special exposure hazards:

In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst. Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.

Hazardous thermal decomposition products:

Decomposition products may include the following materials:

carbon dioxide

carbon monoxide

nitrogen oxides

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in

positive pressure mode. Clothing for fire-fighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide

a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel

from entering. Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment.

Environmental precautions:

Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused

environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

Methods for cleaning up

- Small spill

Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dilute with water and mop up if water-soluble. Alternatively, or if water-insoluble,

absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.

- Large spill

Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas.

Wash spillages into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage with noncombustible, absorbent material

e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations. Dispose of via a licensed

waste disposal contractor.

Handling and storage

Handling:

Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and

processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before

entering eating areas.

Storage:

Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area,

away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.

Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabelled containers.

Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.

Packaging materials - Recommended:

Use original container.

Exposure controls / personal protection

- Exposure limit values

Ingredient name:

No exposure limit value known.

Recommended monitoring procedures:

If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal, workplace atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine

the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Reference should be made to monitoring standards, such as the following: European Standard EN 689 (Workplace atmospheres - Guidance for the assessment of exposure by inhalation to chemical agents for comparison with limit values and measurement strategy) European Standard EN 14042 (Workplace atmospheres -

Guide for the application and use of procedures for the assessment of exposure to chemical and biological agents) European Standard EN 482

(Workplace atmospheres - General requirements for the performance of procedures for the measurement of chemical agents)

Reference to national guidance documents for methods for the determination of hazardous substances will also be required.

- Exposure controls

Occupational exposure controls:

Use only with adequate ventilation. If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other

engineering controls to keep worker exposure below any recommended or statutory limits.

Hygiene measures:

Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.

Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.

Respiratory protection:

Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected

respirator.

Hand protection:

Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk

assessment indicates this is necessary. > 8 hours (breakthrough time): butyl or nitrile.

Eye protection:

Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid

splashes, mists or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection:

safety glasses with side-shields. Recommended: tightly fitting safety goggles

Skin protection:

Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved

by a specialist before handling this product.

Environmental exposure controls:

Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection

legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to

acceptable levels.

Stability and reactivity

- Chemical stability:

The product is stable.

- Possibility of hazardous reactions:

None known.

- Conditions to avoid:

No specific data.

- Materials to avoid:

None known.

- Hazardous decomposition products:

None under normal storage conditions.

Disposal considerations

Methods of disposal:

The generation of waste should be avoided or minimised wherever possible. Waste product residues should not be disposed of via the sewer but processed in a suitable effluent treatment plant. Dispose of surplus and non-recyclable products via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Disposal of this product,

solutions and any byproducts should at all times comply with the requirements of environmental protection and waste disposal legislation and any regional

local authority requirements. Waste packaging should be recycled. Incineration or landfill should only be considered when recycling is not feasible.

This material and its container must be disposed of in a safe way. Empty containers or liners may retain some product residues. Avoid dispersal of spilt

material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers.

Hazardous waste:
