First-aid measures

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

• Causes skin and eye burns
• If ingested, severe burns of the mouth and throat, as well as a danger of perforation of the esophagus and the stomach
• Inhalation of vapors is irritating to the respiratory system, may cause throat pain and cough
• Risk of serious damage to the lungs (by inhalation)
• Aspiration may cause pulmonary edema and pneumonitis
• Symptoms may be delayed

General Advice: If symptoms persist, call a physician. Show this material safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

Eye Contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes Obtain medical attention.

Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. Consult a physician.

Inhalation: Remove from exposure, lie down. Move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Symptoms may be delayed Immediate medical attention is required.

Ingestion: Drink plenty of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting. Immediate medical attention is required

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media
• carbon dioxide (CO2)
• water spray
• dry chemical
• Alcohol-resistant foam

Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons
• high volume water jet

Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical:
Heating or fire can release toxic gas:
• Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
• Carbon monoxide
• Ammonia

Specific methods
• Highly flammable
• In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray
• Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air
• Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors
• Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition
• Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains

Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters
Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
• Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing
• Evacuate personnel to safe areas
• Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak
• Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit
• Rubber gloves
• Rubber or plastic boots

Environmental precautions:
• Remove immediately adhering matter
• Hose down gases, fumes and/or dust with water
• Prevent product from entering drains
• Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:
• Use explosion-proof equipment
• Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit
• Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical waste container
• Neutralize with hydrochloric or sulfuric acids

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling
• Use product only in closed system
• Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might cause ignition of organic vapours)
• Use only in area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation
• Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment
• Wear personal protective equipment
• Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product
• Wash hands after handling
• Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas
• Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location
• Avoid breathing vapors or mists

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
• Protect from light
• Keep in properly labelled containers
• Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition
• Keep container tightly closed
• Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters / Exposure Guidelines:
ACGIH TLV: TWA: 5 ppm, STEL: 15 ppm, Skin

RL 2006/15/EG: Recommended indicative occupational exposure limit value for the European Community
8 hours limit value : 15 mg/m3 (5 ppm)
Short term limit value: 30 mg/m3 (10 ppm)
A national occupational exposure limit value has to be set.

TRGS 900 - GERMAN OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMIT VALUES (Source: DFG)
5 ml/m³
15 mg/m³
Category I - Substances for which local irritant effects determine the exposure limit value, also respiratory allergens

Momentary value: 2
-times limit value should not be exceeded
Risk of percutaneous absorption


Exposure controls:
Engineering Controls • Local exhaust

Personal Protective Equipment:
Eye/face Protection
• Tightly fitting safety goggles
• Face-shield
• Respirator with a full face mask

Skin Protection
• Wear suitable protective equipment
• Complete suit protecting against chemicals

Hand Protection
• Neoprene gloves
• Solvent-resistant gloves (butyl-rubber)
• The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/689/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it
• The suitability for a specific workplace should be discussed with the producers of the protective gloves

Respiratory Protection
• In the case of vapor formation use a respirator with filter model K
• Self-contained breathing apparatus (EN 133) (in case of higher concentration)

Environmental exposure controls
• Prevent product from entering drains
• Do not contaminate surface water
• Avoid subsoil penetration

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Chemical Stability:
• Stable under normal conditions
• Hazardous polymerisation does not occur

Possibility of hazardous reactions:
None under normal processing

Conditions to Avoid:
• Heat, flames and sparks
