In case of unconsciousness bring patient into stable side position for transport.
AFTER SKIN CONTACT
Instantly wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly.
Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician. Get medical attention immediately.
AFTER EYE CONTACT
Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids open.
Seek immediate medical attention.
AFTER SWALLOWING
Wash out mouth with water. In the event of swallowing, induce patient to drink plenty of water.
Get medical attention immediately. Do not induce vomiting.
Fire-fighting measures
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING AGENTS
Use fire fighting measures that suit the environment.

Do not allow to enter the ground/soil.
MEASURES FOR CLEANING/COLLECTING
Collect mechanically. Move containers from spill area. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Vacuum or sweep up material and place in a designated, labelled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
See "Exposure controls / personal protection" section for information on personal protection equipment.
Handling and storage
HANDLING
INFORMATION FOR SAFE HANDLING:
Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace.

Filter P3
PROTECTION OF HANDS
Only use chemical protective gloves with CE-labelling of category III.
Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition.

The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality
and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Nitrile rubber, NBR
PVC gloves
PENETRATION TIME OF GLOVE MATERIAL
The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be
observed.
EYE PROTECTION
Tightly sealed safety glasses.
BODY PROTECTION
Use protective suit.
