2.3 Other hazards
none 4.1 Description of first aid measures General advice Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. If inhaled If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician. In case of skin contact Wash off with soap and plenty of water. In case of eye contact Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician. If swallowed Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated. 4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed no data available 5.1 Extinguishing Media: Suitable extinguishing media For small (incipient) fires, use media such as "alcohol" foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. For large fires, apply water from as far as possible. Use very large quantities (flooding) of water applied as a mist or spray; solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. 5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Carbon oxides, Hydrogen fluoride, Hydrogen iodide 5.3 Advice for firefighters Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.
Further information
Use water spray to cool unopened containers. 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas. 6.2 Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. 6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet- brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. 6.4 Reference to other sections For disposal see section 13. 7.1 Precautions for safe Handling Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed.Normal measures for preventive fire protection. 7.2 Conditions for safe Storage, including any incompatibilities Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. 7.3 Specific end uses no data available 8.1 Control parameters Components with workplace control Parameters. 8.2 Exposure Controls Appropriate engineering controls Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Personal protective equipment Eye/face protection Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166 Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU). Skin protection Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory ractices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it. Body Protection impervious clothing, The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Respiratory protection Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). 9.1 Information on Basic physical & chemical properties a) Appearance Form: liquid Colour: colourless b) Odor no data available c) Odor Threshold no data available d) pH no data available e) Melting point/freezing Melting point/range: -20 °C - lit.
