First-aid measures

Additional advice: If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Inhalation: Remove affected person from the immediate area. Ensure supply of fresh air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Consult a physician.

Skin contact: Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

Ingestion: Rinse mouth. Consult a physician.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: The product itself does not burn. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment e.g.: dry powder, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water spray jet.

Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons: strong water jet.

Specific hazards: in the event of fire the following can be released: metal dust, metallic oxides.

Advice for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.

Specific methods: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid dust formation. Ensure adequate ventilation.

Environmental precautions: Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater. Avoid dust formation.

Methods for cleaning up: Pick up mechanically. Send in suitable containers for recovery or disposal.

Handling and storage

Take note of Directive 98/24/EC on the protection of the health and safety of workers from the risks related to chemical agents at work. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If workplace exposure limits are exceeded, respiratory protection approved for this particular job must be worn.

Technical measures/precautions:

Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if necessary).

Storage:

Always keep in containers of same material as the original one.  Keep containers tightly closed in dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Incompatible products are acids.

Reactivity: No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Chemical stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Conditions to avoid: Avoid dust formation.

Incompatible materials: Acids

Hazardous decomposition products: Metallic oxides
