Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES

General advice: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes without delay.

If inhaled:

Remove person to fresh air and at rest. In case of any signs/symptoms, get medical attention immediately.

In case of skin contact:

MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED

None known.

INDICATION OF ANY IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT NEEDS

Not applicable.

Fire-fighting measures

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA

Suitable extinguishing media:

Carbon dioxide, extinguishing powder or water spray jet. In case of major fire use water spray jet or alcohol-resistant spray foam.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

High volume water jet

SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE

Fire may cause evolution of toxic gases: carbon monoxide, acrylonitrile

Accidental release measures

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear personal protective equipment.

Environmental Precautions:

In case of spillages into waters or drains inform the local authorities. Do not empty into the soil.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Absorb spills with liquid-binding material (sand, kieselguhr, acid-binding agent, universal binder, sawdust).

Dispose of contaminated material according to the local authority regulations. Take care for sufficient ventilation.

Reference to other sections

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.

Personal protection measures:

General advice:

Keep away from food, beverages and feedingstuffs. Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before breaks and at end of work. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Respiratory protection:

Use respirator with an approved filter: A-P2 filter

Hand protection:

Only use synthetic chemicals-protection gloves with CE-labelling, category III. In order to minimise the moisture formed by sweating in the gloves, change the gloves during a workshift. Before re-use of the gloves the seal tightness has to be proven. Preventive skin protection by using of skin protection products is recommended. The break through time depends amongst other things on the material, the thickness and the type of glove and therefore has to be measured for each case. Suitable materials: butyl-rubber, PVC.

Eye protection:

Tightly fitting safety goggles.

Body protection:

Wear industrial protective clothing
