5 Fireghting measures
Appropriate extinguishing agents:
Spray, solid extinguishing agent, alcohol-fast foam, carbon
dioxide (CO
2
)
Particular hazards:
Fumes which are detrimental to health. Formation of smoke/
mist. The specied substances/substance groups may be
released in the event of a re.
Special protective equipment for re ghting:
Wear a breathing apparatus which is independent of the
circulating air in the event of a re.
Further details:
The hazard depends on the combustible substances and
the re conditions. Polluted re water must be disposed of
according to local ofcial regulations.
6 Measures to be taken if substances are released
accidentally
Individual-related measures:
No particular measures required.
Environmental measures:
The product may not be discharged into waters without pre-
treatment (biological sewage plant).
Cleaning/Collection methods:
Pump out the product in the event of large quantities. Absorb
small quantities with appropriate uid bonding material.
Then dispose of them according to regulations. Rinse away
splashes with plenty of water. Inform the local water authority
in the event of large quantities which could ow into the
drainage or waters.
7 Handling and storage
Handling:
Good ventilation of the workplace, no other particular
measures required.
Fire and explosion protection:
No exceptional measures required. Cool any endangered
containers with water.
Storage:
Close containers tightly and store them at dry places. Do not
use any galvanised containers for storage.
8 Limitation of exposure and personal protective
equipment
Personal protective gear:
Hand protection: chemical-resistant protective gloves (EN
374). Suitable materials even in the event of prolonged, direct
contact (recommended: protection index 6, corresponding
to > 480 minutes permeation time according to EN 374):
our elastomer (FKM) – 0.7 mm layer thickness. Suitable
materials for brief contact or splashes (recommended: at least
protection index 2, corresponding to > 30 minutes permeation
time according to EN 374): nitrile rubber (NBR) – 0.4 mm
layer thickness. Due to the large variety of types, observe the
instruction manuals of the manufacturer.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with lateral protection (framed glasses) (EN
166)
General safety and hygiene measures:
Observe the usual protective measures for dealing with
chemicals.
