First-aid measures
4.1.Description of first aid measures
General notes
Medical attention is required. Consult a doctor. Show this safety data sheet (SDS) to the doctor in attendance.
Following inhalation
Move the victim into the fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
In case of skin contact
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
In case of eye contact
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
If swallowed
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.

5.3.Advice for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Accidental release measures
6.1.Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours. Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment. Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
6.2.Environmental precautions
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
6.3.Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
Handling and storage
7.1.Precautions for safe handling
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
7.2.Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store the container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store apart from foodstuff containers or incompatible materials.
7.3.Specific end use(s)
Main uses of the chemical are mentioned in section 1.2. No other specific uses are stipulated.

no data available
Stability and reactivity
1. Reactivity
Stable under normal conditions.
2. Chemical stability
Stable under normal conditions.
3. Possibility of hazardous reactions
Produces steam suddenly when water is added.
4. Conditions to avoid
Avoid the build-up of electrostatic charges.
Avoid exposure to heat sources.
Avoid the formation of dust.
5. Incompatible materials
Strong acids, strong bases, strong oxidising agents, strong reducing agents.
6. Hazardous decomposition products
Unknown.
Disposal considerations
13.1.Waste treatment methods
Product
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Contaminated packaging
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
