In cases of sickness seek medical advice (show label if possible). 4.3 After contact with the skin: Wash with plenty of water or soap and water; immediately remove all contaminated clothing. In cases of sickness seek medical advice (show label if possible). 4.4 After contact with the eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for 10-15 minutes and seek medical advice. 4.5 After swallowing: Drink plenty of water in small portions and induce vomiting. Seek medical advice immediately and produce the label or packaging. 4.6 Advice for the physician: In case of contact with water material splits off (also in gastrointestinal tract) methanol in larger amounts; therefore consider poisoning on methanol and also observe known period of latency of several days! 5 Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Suitable extinguishing media: water spray jet , extinguishing powder , foam , carbon dioxide . 5.2 Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons: 5.3 Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, combustion products resulting gases: 5.4 Special protective equipment for fire fighting: Use respiratory protection independent of recirculated air. 6 Accidental release measures 6.1 Personal precautions: Wear personal protective suit (see section 8.3). Avoid inhaling mists and vapours. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. 6.2 Environmental precautions: Do not introduce into sewer system or in shore-waters. Dam up escaped liquid with earth or other suitable material. Retain contaminated water/extinguishing water. Dispose of in prescribed marked containers. 6.3 Methods for cleaning up: Remove mechanically and dispose of according to regulations. Absorb with a liquid binding material such as diatomaceous earth and dispose of according to regulations. 6.4 Further information: Eliminate all sources of ignition. 7 Handling and storage 7.1 Handling Precautions for safe handling: Ensure adequate ventilation. Precautions against fire and explosion: Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Keep away from heat, open flames, sparks and other sources of ignition. In partly emptied containers liberation of explosive gases is possible. 7.2 Storage Conditions for storage rooms and vessels: Advice for storage of incompatible materials: Further information for storage: Keep container tightly closed and store in a well-ventilated place. 8 Exposure controls and personal protection equipment 8.1 Further information for system design and engineering measures: 8.2 Personal protection equipment General protection and hygiene measures: Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling. Do not breathe vapours. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Respiratory protection: gas mask filter A during prolonged exposure . Hand protection: PVC gloves , rubber gloves recommended . Eye protection: protective goggles recommended . 9 Physical and chemical properties 9.1 Appearance Form.................................: Colour...............................: Odour................................: 9.2 Safety parameters Method Flash point..........................: Ignition temperature.................: Lower explosion point................: Upper explosion point................: Vapour pressure......................: Vapour pressure......................: Density..............................: Solubility in water..................: pH-Value.............................: Viscosity............................: liquid clear/opaque mild approx. 81°C (ISO 2719) > 280 °C (DIN 51794) unknowm unknowm < 50 hPa at 20 °C < 120 hPa at 50 °C 0.99 g/cm3 at 25 °C (DIN 51757) virtually insoluble unknowm 70~80 mPa*s (DIN 51562) 10 Stability and reactivity 10.0 General information: If stored and handled in accordance with standard industrial practices no hazardous reactions are known. 10.1 Conditions to avoid: 10.2 Materials to avoid: Reacts with water to form methanol . 11 Toxicological information 11.0 General information: Product not investigated. 11.1 Acute toxicity: Further information: 11.4 Further toxicological information: Aerosol mist must not be inhaled, as lung damage can be expected. Product(s) of hydrolysis: Attention! Product may hydrolyse in gastro-intestinal tract and produce methanol. According to literature methanol (67-56-1) irritates mucuous membranes, has skin drying and narcotic effects up to coma or death. Absorption by the skin is possible. Possibility of damage to heart,kidneys, liver and optic nerves (blindness) over a period of time. 12 Ecological information 12.1 Information on elimination (persistence and degradability) Further information: By hydrolysis: Methanol and silanol- and/or siloxanol-compounds . 12.2 Behaviour in environmental compartiments Further information: 12.3 Ecotoxicological effects: No data known. Effects in sewage treatment plants (bacteria toxicity: respiration-/reproduction inhibition): Do not introduce large amounts into purification plants. 12.4 Further ecological information General information: Do not introduce into waters, sewage or soil. 13 Disposal considerations 13.1 Material Recommendation: Dispose of according to regluations by incineration in a special waste incinerator. Small quantities may be disposed of in a domestic waste incinerator. Observe local bye-laws. 13.2 Contaminated packaging Recommendation: Completely discharge containers (no tear drops, no powder rest, scraped carefully). Containers may be recycled or re-used. Observe local/national bye-laws. 14 Transport information Not -Estabilish 15 Regulatory information 15.1 Warning Label (EU) - Flammable R-Phrase Description R10 Flammable.
