| General Advice | Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Immediate medical attention is required. |
| Eye Contact | Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Immediate medical attention is required. |
| Skin Contact | Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Immediate medical attention is required. |
| Inhalation: | Move to fresh air. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Immediate medical attention is required. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. |
| Ingestion: | Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. |
| Self-Protection of the First Aider | Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, take precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. |
| Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed | Breathing difficulties. Inhalation of high vapor concentrations may cause symptoms like headache, dizziness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting |
| Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed | Notes to Physician Treat symptomatically. |
| Suitable extinguishing media | Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. |
| Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons | No information available. |
| Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture | Flammable. Containers may explode when heated. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. |
| Hazardous Combustion Products | Carbon monoxide (CO), Carbon dioxide (CO2). |
| Advice for firefighters | As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full |
| Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures | Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. |
| Environmental precautions | Should not be released into the environment. See Section 12 for additional ecological information. |
|
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up |
Soak up with inert absorbent material. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. |
| Reference to other sections | Refer to protective measures listed in Sections 8 and 13 |
| Precautions for safe handling | Use only under a chemical fume hood. Wear personal protective equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not ingest. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. If peroxide formation is suspected, do not open or move container. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Use only non-sparking tools. To avoid ignition of vapors by static electricity discharge, all metal parts of the equipment must be grounded. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. | |
| Hygiene Measures | Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. | |
| Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities | Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Containers should be dated when opened and tested periodically for the presence of peroxides. Should crystals form in a peroxidizable liquid, peroxidation may have occurred and the product should be considered extremely dangerous. In this instance, the container should only be opened remotely by professionals. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. | |

| Engineering Measures | Use only under a chemical fume hood. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting/equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Wherever possible, engineering control measures such as the isolation or enclosure of the process, the introduction of process or equipment changes to minimise release or contact, and the use of properly designed ventilation systems, should be adopted to control hazardous materials at source | |
| Personal protective equipment | Eye Protection Safety glasses with side-shields (European standard - EN 166) Hand Protection Protective gloves | |
| Skin and body protection Long sleeved clothing | Inspect gloves before use. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. (Refer to manufacturer/supplier for information) Ensure gloves are suitable for the task: Chemical compatability, Dexterity, Operational conditions, User susceptibility, e.g. sensitisation effects, also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion. Remove gloves with care avoiding skin contamination. | |
| Respiratory Protection | When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. To protect the wearer, respiratory protective equipment must be the correct fit and be used and maintained properly. | |
| Small scale/Laboratory use |
Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149:2001 approved respirator if exposure imits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. Recommended half mask:- Valve filtering: EN405; or; Half mask: EN140; plus filter, EN 141 When RPE is used a face piece Fit Test should be conducted |
