Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:

This substance does not have any noteworthy noxious potential. Damage to health is thus not expected.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

High volume water jet.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

In case of fire cool endangered containers with water.

In the case of fire, the following hazardous smoke fumes may be produced:

Carbon oxides

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:

Wear a self contained respiratory apparatus.

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Advice for firefighters:

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil, or stretches of water Ensure there are sufficient retaining facilities for water used to extinguish fire. Contaminated fire-extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.

Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with the regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear personal protective equipment.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Do not breathe vapours/dust.

Environmental precautions:

Do not allow entrance in sewage water, drainage systems, stretches of water, soil.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Pick up mechanically and collect in a suitable container. Avoid formation of dust.

Ventilate room thoroughly.

Clean contaminated surface thoroughly.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Use permissible in closed systems only. Handle and transfer product in closed systems only (gas displacement device).

Ensure that apparatus and pipelines are free from leaks. Do not ventilate into the open.

Dedicated loading/unloading stations required.
