4. First-aid measures

Inhalation

Move into fresh air and keep at rest. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.

Skin contact

Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Eye contact

Immediately rinse eyes with water. Remove any contact lenses, and continue flushing eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart to ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the eye and lids with water. Get immediate medical attention.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth thoroughly. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content does not get into the lungs. Do not induce vomiting. Drink a few glasses of water or milk. Get medical attention immediately.

Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

Symptoms include itching, burning, redness, and tearing of eyes. Vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness.

Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.

General information

Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.

5. Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media

Water spray, foam, dry powder or carbon dioxide.

Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. Selection of respiratory protection for firefighting: follow the general fire precautions indicated in the workplace.

Fire fighting equipment/instructions

Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove container, if no risk is involved. Prevent runoff from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers, or drinking water supply.

Specific methods

Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.

General fire hazards

The product is not flammable.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Avoid inhalation of vapors/mist and contact with skin and eyes. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Ventilate the area. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Transfer to a container for disposal. Put material in suitable, covered, labeled containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.

Environmental precautions

Do not discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

7. Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Avoid inhalation of vapors/mist and contact with skin and eyes. Use only outdoors or in a

well-ventilated area. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Avoid release to the environment. Should be handled in closed systems, if possible.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Store locked up. Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat, spark, open flames and other sources of ignition. Store in closed original container at temperatures between 5°C and 25°C. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS).

Exposure guidelines

Follow standard monitoring procedures.

Appropriate engineering controls

Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Provide easy access to water supply and eye wash facilities.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

Eye/face protection

If eye contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields or chemical type goggles should be worn.

Skin protection

Hand protection

Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Polyvinyl alcohol gloves are recommended. Be aware that the liquid may penetrate the gloves. Frequent change is advisable.

Other

Normal work clothing (long sleeved shirts and long pants) is recommended.

Respiratory protection

If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn. In case of inadequate ventilation or risk of inhalation of vapors, use suitable respiratory equipment. In the United States of America, if respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.

Thermal hazards

Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.

General hygiene considerations

Observe any medical surveillance requirements. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
