First-aid measures

General Notes       Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.

Inhalation       Remove patient to fresh air, keep warm and at rest, administer oxygen if necessary.

Skin Contact       Thoroughly wash the contaminated skin. Remove the contaminated clothes and shoes. Consult a doctor if symptoms develop. Wash the clothes and shoes before reusing them

Eye Contact       Immediately wash the eyes thoroughly, opening eyelashes from time to time. Check if the victim is wearing contact lenses; if yes, remove them. Wash for at least 10 minutes. Consult a doctor in case of irritation.

Ingestion       Immediately consult a physician for advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:

Suitable extinguishing media:       Water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       None known

Special Hazards arising from the substance / mixture: Decomposes and gives irritant fumes.

Hazardous Combustion Product:       Can release CO, CO2, NOx, PxOy and Phosphines.

Advise for fire fighters:       

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

For non emergency personnel:

Protective Equipment       Use personal protection recommended in section 8

Emergency Procedures       Evacuate the spill area safely to permit authorised personnel to handle the spill.

For Emergency Responders       Emergency responders must wear the proper personal protective equipment (and have appropriate fire-suppression equipment) suitable for the situation to which they are responding.

Environmental precautions:

Keep out of drains and watercourses. Use containment walls to contain, reclaim or safely dispose off spills. Follow local regulations for safe disposal of contaminated absorbent materials and containers. Wash spill areas with water.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Contain large spills with containment walls and transfer the material to appropriate containers for reclamation or disposal. Collect by sweep, scoop or vacuum and remove. Flush spill area with water. Small spills can be neutralised with lime or soda followed by flushing with water or by absorbing on inert materials like sand, diatomaceous earth etc. Dispose off such materials following local regulations.

Additional information: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If spillage occurs on the public highway, indicate the danger and notify the authorities (police, fire brigade).

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

Protective measures       Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices as mentioned in section 8.2. These practices include using appropriate personal protection, avoiding unnecessary exposure and removal of material from eyes, skin and clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling this product. Wash thoroughly after handling, avoid breathing dust. Emptied containers retain vapour and product residue.
