Storage

Precautionary P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel Follow local regulation

Disposal

P391: Collect spillage. Data reference: Official Journal of the European Union regarding EU GHS

Other hazards

Highly flammable and easily ignitable substance. Danger of ignition at normal temperature. Readily evaporates and vapours form with air toxic and explosive mixtures heavier than air. Mixtures keep above ground and after ignition they spread fast into far distances. Ignition possible when exposed to hot surfaces, sparks, naked flames and by electrostatic discharges too. The substance is practically insoluble in water, floats on the water level and forms toxic and explosive mixtures above the water level. Risk of explosion if emptied into drains or released into wastewater. Target Organs: Eyes, skin, respiratory system, central nervous system
