fire.
The product itself does not burn. No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted.
In the event of fire hydrogen chloride may be formed.
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Cool containers exposed to heat
with water spray and remove container, if no risk is involved. Collect
contaminated fire extinguishing water separately.
This must not be discharged into drains.

Prevent further leakage or spillage. Do not flush into surface water or
sanitary sewer system.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled
material, where this is possible. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and
place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water. This
material is classified as a water pollutant under the Clean Water Act and
should be prevented from contaminating soil or from entering sewage and
drainage systems which lead to waterways.
Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean
surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see
section 13.
Not available.
Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wash hands thoroughly
after handling.
Keep container tightly closed. Keep only in the original container. Store in
corrosive resistant/ container with a resistant inner liner. Keep at
temperatures between 0 and 30°C.

Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used.
Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process
enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure
limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable
level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
General information
Eye wash fountain is recommended.
Eye/face protection
Wear eye/face protection.
Skin protection
- Hand protection
Wear protective gloves. Chemical resistant gloves made of butyl rubber or
nitrile rubber category III according to EN 374.
- Other
Normal work clothing (long sleeved shirts and long pants) is recommended.
Respiratory protection
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must
use appropriate certified respirators.
Thermal hazards
Not available.
Hygiene measures
Avoid contact with eyes. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene
and safety practices.
