### 4 irstaid measures *General information: Ensure personal protection for the FirstAid Personnel. Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product. Symptoms of poisoning may even occur afterseveral hours; therefore medical observation for at least48 hours afterthe accident. *After inhalation: Remove affected persons to fresh airand keep calm. Seek immediate medical advice. In

case of unconsciousness place patient stably inside position for transportation. *Afterskin contact: Wash with plentyof water immediately afterskin contact. Seek medical treatment. *After eye contact: Protect unharmed eye. Rinse the eyes with open eyelids for 10

- 15 minuteswith water. Then consult an eye specialist immediately After swallowing: Rinse mouth with water. Spit liquid out again Drink plenty ofwater, but never give anything to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting Immediately call adoctor. Information for doctor: Treatment: Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions) In

cases of irritation to the lungs, initial treatment with Dexametason metered aerosol. No specific antidote known.



### 5 Fire fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing agents: C02, extinguishing powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray oralcohol resistant foam. Use fire fighting measures thatsuit the environment. Special hazards caused bythe material, its products of combustion or resulting gases: Carbon monoxide (00) Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Protective equipment: Wear chemical protective clothing Wear self-contained respiratory protective device. Additional information: Cool endangered receptacles with water spray. Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. Itmust not enter thesewage system. USA

### Acienal release measures Person-related safety precautions: 

# O G(

Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.

Ensure adequate ventilation Use respiratory protective device against the effects offumes/dust/aerosol. *Measures forenvironmental protection: Do not allow productto reach sewage system or anywater course. Do not allow to penetrate theground/soil. *Measures forcleaning/collecting: Small quantities: Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders, sawdust). Dam up larger quantities and pump into containers. Ensure adequate ventilation. Send for recovery or disposal insuitable receptacles. Dispose contaminated material aswaste according to item 13.

-Additional information: See Section 7for information on safe handling See Section 8for information on personal protection equipment.

(Contd. of page 3) *Personal protective equipment *General protective and hygienic measures: The usual precautionary measures for handling chemicals should be followed. Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages andfeed. Do not eat ordrinkwhile working. Immediately remove soiled soaked clothing and use again only after washing. Store protective clothing separately. Wash hands before breaks and at the end ofwork. After skin contact cleanse skin thoroughly. Ensure that washing facilities are available at thework place. After contact with eyes rinse immediately. Provide eyewash facility. All protective equipment used shall be according to 29 CFR.1910 Subpart I Personal Protective Equipment *Breathing equipment: At formation ofaerosols and mist: In

case of unintentional release ofsubstance, exceeding the occupational exposure limitvalue:
Incaseof brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. Incase of intensiveor longer exposure use respiratory protective device that isindependent ofcirculating air.

Shortterm filter device: Combination filter: ABEK Arespiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 191 0.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant arespirator's use. Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respiratorwhen necessary. Protection of hands: Wear chemically resistant protective gloves (tested according to DIN EN 374) The glove material has to be impermeable and resistantto the product! the substance/ the preparation. Selection ofthe glove material on consideration ofthe penetration times, rates ofdiffusion and the degradation After use of gloves apply skin-cleaning agents and skin cosmetics. Material of gloves: Recommended: Protective index 6,corresponding >480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and other Penetration time of glove material: The exact break trough time has to be found out bythe manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to beobserved. Eye protection: Tightly sealed goggles. Body protection: Protective work clothing. Boots Apron Selection of protective clothing issubjectto the specific kind ofwork and the corresponding risk potential.
