First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, move
exposed subject to fresh air. If breathing is difficult or
ceases, ensure and maintain ventilation. Give oxygen as
appropriate. The exposed subject should be kept warm and at
rest. Obtain medical attention in cases of known or possible
over exposure, or with symptoms including chest pain,
difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness or other adverse
effects, which may be delayed.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash immediately with clean and gently flowing water.
Continue for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Using appropriate personal protective equipment, remove
contaminated clothing and flush exposed area with large
amounts of water. Obtain medical attention if skin reaction
occurs, which may be immediate or delayed.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Obtain medical attention immediately.

Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, dry powder or foam extinguishers are recommended.
Carbon dioxide extinguishers may be ineffective.
Product arising from burning: Oxides of carbon and bromine containing compounds.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing
apparatus must be worn.
Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Personal Precautions:
For all spills, isolate the area, restrict access, post the
area for a carcinogen and immediately implement emergency
procedures for clean-up and control of occupational
carcinogens. Wear protective clothing and equipment
consistent with the degree of hazard. Avoid dust generation.
Environmental precautions:
Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, surface water drainage
systems and poorly ventilated areas. If spill is outdoors,
cover with plastic sheet to minimise spreading or contact
with rain.
Clean-up Methods:
Collect and place it in a suitable, properly labelled
container for recovery or disposal. After all solid or
absorbent material has been collected, the area should be
vacuumed with HEPA filter-equipped apparatus.
Decontamination Procedures:
No specific decontamination or detoxification procedures
have been identified for this material. Consider the use of
water, detergent solutions, or other soluble solvents, for
clean-up and decontamination operations.

Handling and storage
Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid 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 equipment should conform to the appropriate
international or national standards as follows;
Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374
Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368
Eye protection to Standard EN166.
Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be
used, it must be capable of adequately controlling
exposure, be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the
appropriate international or national standards, such as a
dust mask conforming to EN149 FFP1.
These measures should be regarded as a minimum.
Storage: Keep in tightly closed containers or packages away from
moisture and away from sources of ignition. Avoid prolonged
storage at elevated temperatures (greater than room
temperature, approximately 20 Deg C).
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Double lined polythene bags.

Stability and reactivity
Danger other than fire: None reported.
Chemical reaction with water: None reported.
Dust explosion: Under normal conditions of use this material does not
present a significant explosion hazard. However, like most
organic compounds it is combustible and may form a dust
explosion if widely dispersed in air.
Dust explosion determined by test: N
Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: 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 a
severe eye irritant and a skin sensitiser.
No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the
hazardous health properties.
The dust hazard will be minimised by appropriate handling
and storage.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.
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
and bromine containing compunds) could be formed.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly
tothe sewage system or the aqueous environment.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.
