4. FIRST AID MEASURES
General advice : Remove from exposure, lie down. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. No hazards which require special first aid measures If a
person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the recovery position.
Inhalation : Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of fumes from overheating or
combustion. Consult a physician after significant exposure.
Skin contact : Cool skin rapidly with cold water after contact with molten material. Do not peel
polymer from the skin. Obtain medical attention.
Eye contact : Flush eyes with water as a precaution. Obtain medical attention.
Ingestion : No hazards which require special first aid measures Drink water as a

precaution.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing : carbon dioxide (CO2), dry powder, foam, water
media
Specific hazards during fire : Large molten masses may ignite spontaneously in air. Under conditions giving
fighting incomplete combustion, hazardous gases produced may consist of: Carbon
monoxide Water quenching is good practice.
Special protective : In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear suitable
equipment for fire-fighters protective equipment.
Further information : Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter
drains or water courses. Burns after ignition without external heat source (IEC
60695-11-10 : HB).
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions : Ventilate the area. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
Environmental precautions : Try to prevent the material from entering drains or water courses. Do not
contaminate surface water.
Methods for cleaning up : Clean up promptly by sweeping or vacuum. Sweep up or vacuum up spillage
and collect in suitable container for disposal.
Additional advice : Use mechanical handling equipment.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Advice on safe handling : No special handling advice required. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear
suitable respiratory equipment. For personal protection see section 8. General
precaution for all plastics and elastomers: Provide appropriate exhaust
ventilation at dryers, machinery and at places where dust or volatiles can be
generated. When opening containers, avoid breathing vapours that may be
emanating. Protect from contamination.
Advice on protection : Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might cause
against fire and explosion ignition of organic vapours).
Dust explosion class : no data available
Storage
Requirements for storage : No special storage conditions required. Keep container tightly closed in a dry
areas and containers and well-ventilated place. Protect from contamination.

Engineering measures
Dust: Please refer to the National exposure limits
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection : When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must
use appropriate certified respirators. suitable respiratory equipment: Half mask
with a particle filter FFP2/FFP3 (EN149)
Hand protection : Protective gloves (Type : Kevlar庐 - heat resistant, use possible until worn out)
Eye protection : safety glasses with side-shields
Skin and body protection : If there is potential contact with hot/molten material, wear heat resistant
clothing and footwear. Regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing.
Hygiene measures : Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. General precaution for
all plastics and elastomers: Do not breathe fumes evolved from hot polymer.
