4.) First aid measures
General information
In all cases of doubt, or when sickness symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Never give anything
by mouth to an unconscious person. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes immediately, and
launder thoroughly before reusing.
After inhalation
Remove to fresh air, keep patient warm and at rest. Irregular breathing/no breathing: artificial
respiration. If unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical advice.
After skin contact
Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use recognised skin cleaner. Do NOT use solvents or
thinners !

Remove contact lenses, irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 10 minutes, holding the
eyelids apart and seek medical advice.
After ingestion
When swallowed seek medical aid immediately and show the physician the packaging or the label of
the packaging. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
5.) Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Alcohol resistant foam, CO2, powders, water spray
Extinguishing media that must not be used for safety reasons
Full water jet
Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, its combustion
products or from resulting gases
In the event of fire, the following can be released:
Ammonia (NH3)
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Fire will produce dense black smoke. Exposure to decomposition products may cause a health hazard.
Special protective equipment for firefighting
As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure - demand, MSHA/ NIOSH (approved
or equivalent) and full protective gear.
Other information
Cool endangered containers with water in case of fire. Do not allow run-off from firefighting to enter
drains or water courses.
6.) Accidental release measures
Personal precautions
Exclude sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Do not inhale vapours. Refer to protective measures
listed in sections 7 and 8.
Environmental precautions
Do not allow to enter drains. If the product contaminates lakes, rivers or sewage, inform appropriate
authorities in accordance with local regulations.
Methods for cleaning up/taking up
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent materials, e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite,
diatomaceous earth and place in suitable container for disposal. Clean preferably with a detergent;
avoid use of solvents.

7.) Handling and storage
Handling
Advice on safe handling
Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapour in air and avoid vapour
concentrations higher than the occupational exposure limits. Refer to protective measures listed in
section 8. Comply with the health and safety at work laws. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air.
Storage
Requirements for storage rooms and vessels
Keep container tightly closed. Never use pressure to empty: container isnot a pressure vessel. No
smoking. Prevent unauthorized access. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and
kept upright to prevent leakage.
Hints on storage assembly
Keep away from oxidizing agents, from strongly alkaline and strongly acid materials.
Further information on storage conditions
Always keep in containers of same material as the original one. See alsoinstructions on the label.
Avoid heating and direct sunlight. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated place.
8.) Exposure controls / personal protection
Additional hints on technical system design.
Good general ventilation Should be sufficient to control airborne levels.
Exposure limit values
NONE
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection
If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate, certified
respirators. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved dust respirator if concentation exceeds recommended
exposure levels.
Hand protection
Glove permeation data does not exist for this material. The following glove(s) should be used for
splash protection only.
Appropriate Material neoprene
Appropriate Material butyl
Eye protection
Use chemical splash goggles and face shield (ANSI Z87.1 or approved equivalent).
Skin protection
fire-resistant antistatic protective clothing
General protective and hygiene measures
Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not eat, drink or
smoke during work time.
