Exposure controls / personal protection
Appropriate engineering controls: Provide general ventilation.
General protective measures:
Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
Do not inhale dust.
Safety shower and eyewash must be in work area.
Hygiene measures:
Wash hands before breaks and after work.
Use barrier skin cream.
Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before using again.
Do not eat, drink or smoke during work time.
Respiratory protection:
Use respiratory protection in case of insufficient exhaust ventilation or prolonged exposure.
Particle filter P2
Hand protection:
For long-term exposure: Butyl rubber gloves.
Minimum breakthrough time / gloves : 480 min
Minimum thickness / gloves 0,7 mm
For short-term exposure (splash protection): Nitrile rubber gloves.
Minimum breakthrough time / gloves : 30 min
Minimum thickness / gloves 0,4 mm
These types of protective gloves are offered by various manufacturers. Please note the manufacturers´ detailed statements, especially about the minimum thickness and the minimum breakthrough time. Consider also the particular working conditions under which the gloves are being used.
With solid dry substances permeation is not to be expected, therefore the breakthrough-time for this protective glove has not been measured.
Eye protection : safety glasses
Body protection : working clothes
Stability and reactivity
Thermal decomposition: > 225 deg C.
Chemical stability: Under normal conditions the product is stable.
Possibility of hazardous reactions: No hazardous reactions when stored and handled according to prescribed instructions.
Conditions to avoid: None known.
Incompatible materials: not known
Hazardous decomposition products: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods:
Product: Disposal in an incineration plant in accordance with the regulations of the local authorities.
Uncleaned packaging: Packaging that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of as product waste.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
