Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove from exposure and give fresh air and rest. Obtain

medical attention for signs of irritation or

difficulty in breathing.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Irrigate immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes

and seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing, and clean before  re-use. In

case of contact with skin, wash affected area    with soap

and water. Seek medical attention if irritation   occurs.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: If  swallowed, wash out mouth thoroughly and give water to

drink. Seek medical attention and show the label.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: The substance is not flammable, but may burn if involved in

a fire. Use carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical or water

spray.

For the formulation, water jets may spread the fire.

Product arising from burning: The substance may evolve smoke and noxious gases (oxides of

carbon, reactive organic species), and aluminium-containing

compounds.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: In case of fire, full protective equipment, including self-

contained breathing apparatus is recommended.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Spillages of the neat substance should be swept up, or

removed with an industrial vacuum machine. Clean the area

with water and detergent, ensuring that washings do not

enter waste-water systems. Dispose of residues in compliance

with local and national regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: No hazardous health properties have been identified for this

substance. It should be handled using appropriate personal

protective equipment, particularly chemical resistant gloves

and goggles. If dusts are generated wear breathing mask to

prevent inhalation.

The substance is supplied in the EU only as formulation in a

a petroleum distillate (bp > 250 °C). Chemical splash

goggles, and impervious gloves (neoprene) are recommended.

Ground containers when transferring contents.

Storage: The neat substance should be stored in anhydrous conditions,

as it reacts with atmospheric moisture, in a cool place.

The substance is supplied in the EU only as formulation in a

mineral oil. Containers should be kept tightly closed and

in a cool, dry place away from open flames.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance is imported into the EU only as a formulation

in a petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C). The container is

55 US gal steel drums.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: No other particular dangers (polymerisation, strongly

exothermic reaction, respiratory sensitisation) have been

identified for this substance. No information on the dust

explosion hazard from the neat substance is available, but

the substance is supplied in the EU only in a liquid

petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C) formulation.

Chemical reaction with water: The substance reacts quickly with water to form a keto ester

(which may hyrdolyse further to an alcohol and a keto

acid), alkyl diol, and aluminium hydroxide. However, the

reaction is inhibited by the insolubility of the subtance in

water. The reaction and resulting aqueous mixture are not

expected to be dangerous.

Dust explosion: The neat substance is a solid aluminium complex, and there

is potential for a dust explosion hazard. However, the

potential is small as the substance is crystalline.

It is supplied in the EU only as a liquid formulation in a

petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C).

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Code 611 Recovery by mechanical collection.

The substance is manufactured as a formulation in a

petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C). It is not expected

that the neat substance (or formulation) will be recovered

or recycled, as the substance degrades with atmospheric

moisture.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No hazardous effects of the substance have been identified.

The substance hydrolyses quickly in water, although the

reaction is impeded by the insolubility of the substance.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: No hazardous properties of the substance have been

determined, but disposal by landfill is not recommended.

The substance is supplied in the EU only as a formulation in

a petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C).

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The recommended route of disposal for the substance is by

incineration.

The substance is supplied in the EU only as a formulation in

a petroleum distillate (bp ca. 250 °C).

Incineration characteristics of the substance are unknown.

Incineration should take place in accordance with local and

national regulations with appropriate treatment of waste-

gases.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance hydrolyses to give products that might be

degradable and suitably treated in an on-site water pre-

treatment system.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None

public.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Neither the substance nor the formulation is supplied to

public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Neither the substance nor the formulation is supplied to

public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Neither the substance nor the formulation is supplied to

public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Neither the substance nor the formulation is supplied to

public.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable
