General information Get medical attention. Show this Safety Data Sheet to the medical personnel.
Inhalation Remove affected person from source of contamination. Move affected person to fresh air and keep warm
and at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as
collar, tie or belt. When breathing is difficult, properly trained personnel may assist affected person by
administering oxygen. Place unconscious person on their side in the recovery position and ensure
breathing can take place.
Ingestion IF SWALLOWED: Get medical attention. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Do not induce vomiting
unless under the direction of medical personnel. Move affected person to fresh air and keep warm and at
rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
Protection of first aiders First aid personnel should wear appropriate protective equipment during any rescue.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
General information See Section 11 for additional information on health hazards. The severity of the symptoms described will
vary dependent on the concentration and the length of exposure.
Inhalation A single exposure may cause the following adverse effects: Drowsiness, dizziness, disorientation, vertigo.
Headache. Nausea, vomiting.
Ingestion Gastrointestinal symptoms, including upset stomach. Fumes from the stomach contents may be inhaled,
resulting in the same symptoms as inhalation.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Suitable extinguishing media Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder or water fog.
Unsuitable extinguishing media Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Specific hazards Flammable liquid and vapour. Vapours may be ignited by a spark, a hot surface or an ember. Vapours
may form explosive mixtures with air. Containers can burst violently or explode when heated, due to
excessive pressure build-up. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Hazardous combustion products Thermal decomposition or combustion products may include the following substances: Harmful gases or
vapours. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon monoxide (CO).
Protective actions during Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Keep upwind to avoid inhalation of gases, vapours,
firefighting fumes and smoke. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Cool containers exposed to heat with
water spray and remove them from the fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to
flames with water until well after the fire is out. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of
sewers and watercourses. If risk of water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities.
Special protective equipment for Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing.
firefighters Firefighter's clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets, protective boots and
gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.

Personal precautions No action shall be taken without appropriate training or involving any personal risk. Keep unnecessary
and unprotected personnel away from the spillage. Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of
this safety data sheet. Follow precautions for safe handling described in this safety data sheet. Wash
thoroughly after dealing with a spillage. Ensure procedures and training for emergency decontamination
and disposal are in place. Do not touch or walk into spilled material. No smoking, sparks, flames or other
sources of ignition near spillage.
Environmental precautions Contain spillage with sand, earth or other suitable non-combustible material. Use appropriate containment
to avoid environmental contamination.
Methods for cleaning up Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Clear up spills immediately
and dispose of waste safely. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. No smoking, sparks, flames or
other sources of ignition near spillage. Small Spillages: Wipe up with an absorbent cloth and dispose of
waste safely. Large Spillages: Contain and absorb spillage with sand, earth or other non-combustible
material. Place waste in labelled, sealed containers. Clean contaminated objects and areas thoroughly,
observing environmental regulations. The contaminated absorbent may pose the same hazard as the
spilled material. Flush contaminated area with plenty of water. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a
spillage. Collect and dispose of spillage as indicated in Section 13.
Reference to other sections For personal protection, see Section 8. See Section 11 for additional information on health hazards. See
Section 12 for additional information on ecological hazards. For waste disposal, see Section 13.
Usage precautions Flammable/combustible materials. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and
understood. Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Keep away from
heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges. Use only non-sparking tools.
Advice on general occupational Wash promptly if skin becomes contaminated. Take off contaminated clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke
hygiene when using this product. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the
toilet.
Storage precautions Eliminate all sources of ignition. Keep away from oxidising materials, heat and flames. Keep only in the
original container. Keep containers upright. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Specific end use(s) The identified uses for this product are detailed in Section 1.2.

Protective equipment
Appropriate engineering controls As this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or
other engineering controls should be used to keep worker exposure below any statutory or recommended
limits, if use generates dust, fumes, gas, vapour or mist. Personal, workplace environment or biological
monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures
and/or the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Ensure control measures are regularly
inspected and maintained. The engineering controls also need to keep gas, vapour or dust concentrations
below any lower explosive limits.
Eye/face protection Wear tight-fitting, chemical splash goggles or face shield. Personal protective equipment for eye and face
protection should comply with European Standard EN166.
Hand protection Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk
assessment indicates skin contact is possible. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves should comply
with European Standard EN374. For exposure up to 4 hours, wear gloves made of the following material:
Nitrile rubber. The selected gloves should have a breakthrough time of at least 4 hours. For exposure up
to 8 hours, wear gloves made of the following material: Butyl rubber. The selected gloves should have a
breakthrough time of at least 8 hours. Frequent changes are recommended. The most suitable glove
should be chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information about
the breakthrough time of the glove material. It should be noted that liquid may penetrate the gloves.
Other skin and body protection Wear anti-static protective clothing if there is a risk of ignition from static electricity. Wear appropriate
clothing to prevent skin contamination.
Hygiene measures Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash at the end
of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Respiratory protection If ventilation is inadequate, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. Respiratory protection must be
used if the airborne contamination exceeds the recommended occupational exposure limit.
