If inhaled: If difficulties occur after vapour/aerosol has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and seek medical attention. On skin contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. On contact with eyes: Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open. On ingestion: Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention. Note to physician: Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote. 5. Fire-Fighting Measures Suitable extinguishing media: water, dry extinguishing media, foam Specific hazards: harmful vapours Evolution of fumes/fog. The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire. Special protective equipment: Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus. Further information: The degree of risk is governed by the burning substance and the fire conditions. Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations. 6. Accidental Release Measures Personal precautions: Use personal protective clothing. Breathing protection required. Environmental precautions: Contain contaminated water/firefighting water. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

4 Page: 4/8 Methods for cleaning up or taking up: For large amounts: Pump off product. For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations. 7. Handling and Storage Handling No special measures necessary provided product is used correctly. Protection against fire and explosion: Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Storage Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place. 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Components with workplace control parameters : ethyleneglycol Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2) Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374) Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2, corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374) butyl rubber (butyl) mm coating thickness nitrile rubber (NBR) mm coating thickness Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166) General safety and hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wearing of closed work clothing is recommended.
