EPICURE YH306

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air.  Seek medical attention if signs

of respiratory irritation occur.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eyes immediately with plenty of water.  Seek medical

attention if irritation occurs.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing.  Wash affected area thoroughly

with soap and water.  Seek medical attention if irritation

occurs.  Launder clothing before re-use.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.  Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide extinguishers may be

used.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon oxides). However,

there is no experimental evidence to support the anticipated

combustion products.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to

the relevant national or international standards as

mentioned in section 2.3.10.

Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material

(eg sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste

containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum machine.

Containers filled with waste material must be labelled in

the same way as the original containers.

Clean the spillage area with water and detergent.

Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with

local regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in

conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with

any local regulations in order to avoid exposure by

inhalation or dermal exposure.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the

substance.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled

appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.

Such protective equipmemt should conform to the appropriate

international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard prEN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard prEN166

When necessary appropriate respiratory protection should be

used. e.g.a vapour mask conforming to EC405 FFA1.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Ready packaged 55ml syringes containing 50g of preparation.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Handling of the substance will be by trained operators and

will be kept to a minimum.

Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from

minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically

or technically feasible, and such waste material will be

disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be

possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated

material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is

hazardous to health if swallowed.  However it is not

anticipated to present a risk to workers as the substance

will be used under conditions of good industrial hygiene.

There is no appropriate method for chemical neutralisation

of the properties hazardous to human health.

There is no dust explosion hazard as the substance is a

liquid.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: No waste material will be disposed of by landfill.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning

under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment

processor in accordance with local regulations. Stack gases

should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg carbon oxides)

could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as the substance will not be made available

to the general public.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable as the substance will not be made available

to the general public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable as the substance will not be made available

to the general public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable as the substance will not be made available

to the general public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable as the substance will not be made available

to the general public.
