: Remove to fresh air. In case of shortness of breath, give
oxygen. Consult a physician after significant exposure. If
unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical
advice.
: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. If
symptoms persist, call a physician.
: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids,
for at least 10 minutes. Consult an eye specialist immediately.
: Rinse mouth. Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water. Do NOT induce
vomiting. Risk of aspiration! Call a physician immediately. If a
person vomits when lying on his back, place him in the
recovery position.
: Symptoms of overexposure may be headache, dizziness,
tiredness, nausea and vomiting. Components of the product
may affect the nervous system.
: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or
carbon dioxide.
: Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread
fire.
: Combustible liquid, Vapours may form explosive mixture with
air. Attention! The formation of organic peroxides is possible.
The product is insoluble and floats on water. Flash back
possible over considerable distance. Fire may cause evolution
of: Carbon oxides, Under certain fire conditions, traces of other
toxic products cannot be excluded.
: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
: Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
: Use personal protective equipment. Provide adequate
ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe
gas/fumes/vapour/spray.
: Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Avoid
subsoil penetration. If the product contaminates rivers and
lakes or drains inform respective authorities. If material
reaches soil inform authorities responsible for such cases.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling
Advice on safe handling
Advice on protection
against fire and explosion
: Keep container tightly closed. Reacts with air to form
peroxides. Handle and open container with care. Provide
sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
: Combustible liquid Vapours may form explosive mixtures with
air. Attention! The formation of organic peroxides is possible.
Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.
Flash back possible over considerable distance. Use only
explosion-proof equipment. Keep away from sources of ignition
- No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of
electrostatic charge.

Storage
Requirements for storage
areas and containers
Advice on common storage
Further information on
storage conditions
German storage class
: Keep in an area equipped with solvent resistant flooring. Store
in original container. Keep away from heat and sources of
ignition. Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place.
: Materials to avoid: Oxidizing and spontaneously flammable
products, Strong oxidizing agents
: Reacts with air to form peroxides. Protect against light.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection
Hand protection
: Required, if exposure limit is exceeded (e.g. OEL). In case of
intensive or longer exposure use breathing apparatus that is
independent of circulating air. In case of brief exposure or low
pollution use breathing filter apparatus. Recommended Filter
type: Combination filter: A-P2
: Wear suitable gloves.
As the product is a preparation of several substances, the
durability of the glove materials cannot be calculated in
advance and has to be tested before use.
Protective gloves should be replaced at first signs of wear.

Eye protection : Tightly fitting safety goggles

Body Protection : impervious clothing
Hygiene measures : Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Do not breathe
gas/fumes/vapour/spray. Avoid contact with the skin and the
eyes. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.
Keep working clothes separately. Wash hands before breaks
and at the end of workday.
Engineering measures
Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
