First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures.
EYES: Remove contact lenses, if present. Wash immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, opening the eyelids fully. If problem persists, seek medical advice.
SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash immediately with plenty of water. If irritation persists, get medical advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before using it again.
INHALATION: Remove to open air. In the event of breathing difficulties, get medical advice/attention immediately.
INGESTION: Get medical advice/attention. Induce vomiting only if indicated by the doctor. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person, unless authorised by a doctor.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed.
For symptoms and effects caused by the contained substances, see section 'Toxicological information'.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed.
Information not available.

Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media.
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING EQUIPMENT
The extinguishing equipment should be of the conventional kind: carbon dioxide, foam, powder and water spray.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING EQUIPMENT
None in particular.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture.
HAZARDS CAUSED BY EXPOSURE IN THE EVENT OF FIRE
Do not breathe combustion products. The product is combustible and, when the powder is released into the air in sufficient concentrations and in the presence of a source of ignition, it can create explosive mixtures with air. Fires may start or get worse by leakage of the solid product from the container, when it reaches high temperatures or through contact with sources of ignition.
Advice for firefighters.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Use jets of water to cool the containers to prevent product decomposition and the development of substances potentially hazardous for health. Always wear full fire prevention gear. Collect extinguishing water to prevent it from draining into the sewer system. Dispose of contaminated water used for extinction and the remains of the fire according to applicable regulations.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIRE-FIGHTERS
Normal fire fighting clothing i.e. fire kit (BS EN 469), gloves (BS EN 659) and boots (HO specification A29 and A30) in combination with self-contained open circuit positive pressure compressed air breathing apparatus (BS EN 137).

Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures.
If there are no contraindications, spray powder with water to prevent the formation of dust. Avoid breathing vapours/mists/gases. Wear suitable protective equipment (including personal protective equipment referred to section 'Exposure controls/personal protection' to prevent any contamination of skin, eyes and personal clothing. These indications apply for both processing staff and those involved in emergency procedures.
Environmental precautions.
The product must not penetrate into the sewer system or come into contact with surface water or ground water.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up.
Use spark-proof mechanical equipment to collect the leaked product and place it in containers for recovery or disposal. If there are no contraindications, use jets of water to eliminate product residues. Make sure the leakage site is well aired. Check incompatibility for container material in section 'Handling and storage'. Contaminated material should be disposed of in compliance with the provisions set forth in section 'Disposal considerations'.
Reference to other sections.
Any information on personal protection and disposal is given in sections 'Exposure controls/personal protection' and 'Disposal considerations'.

Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling.
Before handling the product, consult all the safety data sheet. Avoid leakage of the product into the environment. Do not eat, drink or smoke during use. Remove any contaminated clothes and personal protective equipment before entering places in which people eat.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities.
Store only in the original container. Store the containers sealed, in a well ventilated place, away from direct sunlight. Keep containers away from any incompatible materials, see section 'Stability and reactivity' for details.
Specific end use(s).

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters.
During the risk assessment process, it is essential to take into consideration the ACGIH occupational exposure levels for inert particulate otherwise classified (PNOC respirable fraction: 3 mg/m3; PNOC inhalable fraction: 10 mg/m3). For values above these limits, use a P type filter, whose class (1, 2 or 3) must be chosen according to the outcome of risk assessment.
Exposure controls.
Comply with the safety measures usually applied when handling chemical substances.
HAND PROTECTION: None required.
SKIN PROTECTION: None required.
EYE PROTECTION: None required.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Use a type P filtering facemask (see standard EN 149) or equivalent device, whose class (1, 2 or 3) and effective need, must be defined according to the outcome of risk assessment.
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE CONTROLS: The emissions generated by manufacturing processes, including those generated by ventilation equipment, should be checked to ensure compliance with environmental standards.
