Administrative data
First-aid measures
Eye contact:
- rinse immediately with tap water for 10 minutes - open eyelids forcibly
- consult physician
Skin contact:
- remove immediately contaminated clothes, wash affected skin with water and soap
- do not use any solvents
Inhalation:
- remove the casualty to fresh air and keep him/her calm
Note to physician:
- treat symptomatically
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media - water spray jet, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
Specific hazards - consider dust explosion hazard
Protection of fire-fighters - precipitate gases/vapours/mists with water spray
Accidental release measures
Methods for cleaning up :
- collect solids (avoid dust formation) and hand over to waste removal
- flush afterwards with plenty of water
Handling and storage
Handling
Technical measures:
- processing in closed systems, if possible superposed by inert gas (e.g. nitrogen)
- local exhaust ventilation necessary
- avoid impact, friction and electrostatic charging
- avoid dust formation; high dust explosion hazard
Suitable materials:
- stainless steel, aluminium, glass, polyethylene
Storage
Storage conditions:
- room temperature
- protected from humidity
Validity:
- 24 months, 15 to 25 °C, in the unopened original container, see expiry date on the label, after opening the container, the contents
should be used within a short period
Packaging materials:
- tightly closing; material: stainless steel, aluminium, polyethylene, glass
