Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
No harm to the staff authorised to use has been reported. However, in case of contact, inhalation or ingestion, the following general measures provided for a first aid shall be taken.
General advice: Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. In the case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible).
Inhalation: Remove to open air. In the event of breathing difficulties, get medical advice/attention immediately.
Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash immediately with plenty of water. If irritation persists, get medical advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before using it again.
Eye contact: Remove contact lenses, if present. Wash immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, opening the eyelids fully. If problem persists, seek medical advice.
Ingestion: Get medical advice/attention. Induce vomiting only if indicated by the doctor. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person, unless authorized by a doctor.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, Dry powder, Foam, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Unsuitable extinguishing media: none in particular.
Further information: Standard procedure for chemical fires.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Use personal protective equipment.
Environmental precautions: Avoid subsoil penetration. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
Methods for cleaning up: Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Collect the majority of the remaining material and deposit it in containers for disposal. If there are no other controindications, use jets of water to eliminate product residues. Make sure the leakage site is well aired. Contaminated material should be disposed on in compliance with the provisions set forth in point 13.
Handling and storage
HANDLING
Safe handling advice: wear personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Do not smoke while handling and use.
Store in a well ventilated place at room temperature (15 °C - 25 °C).

Exposure controls / personal protection
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Respiratory protection: No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. In inadequately ventilated areas, where workplace limits are exceeded, where unpleasant odours exist or where aerosols are in use, or smoke and mist occur, use self-contained breathing apparatus or breathing apparatus with a combined filter (e.g. A-P2 or ABEK-P2), in compliance with the appropriate standards.
Hand protection: The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time. Be aware that in daily use the durability of a chemical resistant protective glove can be notably shorter than the break through time measured according to EN 374, due to the numerous outside influences (e.g. temperature).
Material: PVC; Break through time: >= 30 min; Material thickness: >= 1.30 mm
Material: Nitrile rubber/nitrile latex; Break through time: >= 30 min; Material thickness: >= 0.06 mm (single wall)
Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles (EN 166)
Skin and body protection: Protective suit
Hygiene measures: Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Use barrier cream regularly.
Protective measures: Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. Avoid contact with the skin and the eyes. General industrial hygiene practice.
Stability and reactivity
Stability: Stable at ambient temperature and under normal conditions of use.
Reactivity: There are no particular risks of reactivity in normla conditions of use
Packing materials: Plastic drums or iron drums with internal coating.
Material to avoid: Strong oxidizing/reducing agents, strong acids.
Disposal considerations
Waste of residues: Waste must be eliminated in accordance with national and local regulation on the environmental protection.
Contaminated packaging: Packing must be recycled in accordance with national and local regulation on the environmental protection.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
