First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures
· General information: Personal protection for the First Aider.
· After inhalation: Take affected persons into fresh air and keep quiet. Seek medical treatment in case of complaints. If breathing stops, provide artificial respiration.
· After skin contact:
Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. If skin irritation continues, consult a doctor. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.
· After eye contact: Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. Protect unharmed eye. Remove contact lenses. Call a doctor immediately.
· After swallowing: Rinse out mouth and then drink plenty of water. Never give anything to the mouth of an unconscious person. Call for a doctor immediately. A person vomiting while laying on their back should be turned onto their side.

· Information for doctor: No specific therapy is known.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Symptomatic treatment (decontamination, vital functions).

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media
· Suitable extinguishing agents: Use fire extinguishing methods suitable to surrounding conditions. CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam.
· For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: Water with full jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Formation of toxic gases is possible during heating or in case of fire.
In case of fire, the following can be released: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide

Advice for firefighters
· Protective equipment: Do not inhale explosion gases or combustion gases. Wear fully protective suit. Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.
· Additional information: Cool endangered receptacles with water spray. Dispose of fire debris and contaminated fire fighting water in accordance with official regulations. Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter the sewage system.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away. Ensure adequate ventilation Avoid formation of dust. Keep away from ignition sources. Use respiratory protective device against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol. Avoid contact with any product.

Environmental precautions:
Do not allow to enter sewers/ surface or ground water. Inform respective authorities in case of seepage into water course or sewage system. Do not allow to penetrate the ground/soil. In case of seepage into the ground inform responsible authorities.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Pick up mechanically. Prevent formation of dust. Send for recovery or disposal in suitable receptacles.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling
Keep receptacles tightly sealed. Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace. Prevent formation of dust. Any unavoidable deposit of dust must be regularly removed. Use appropriate industrial vacuum cleaners or central vacuum systems for dust removal. Wear suitable respiratory protective device when aerosols are formed.
· Information about fire - and explosion protection: Protect against electrostatic charges. Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
· Storage:
· Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Store in a cool, dry place.
· Information about storage in one common storage facility: Store away from feed and foodstuffs. Store away from oxidising agents.
· Further information about storage conditions: Keep container tightly sealed.
· Storage class: 11 - Flammable solids

Exposure controls / personal protection

Technical protection measures: No further data, see handling and storage
Organisational protection measures
Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: Observe general threshold limits for dust.

General protective and hygienic measures:
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Vacuum clean contaminated clothing. Do not blow or brush off contamination. Do not inhale dust / smoke / mist.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. Ensure that washing facilities are available at the work place. Provide eye bath.

Hand protection
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation To avoid skin problems reduce the wearing of gloves to the required minimum. Softening of the callus when wearing air-impermeable gloves is possible. Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition. Use gloves of stable material (e.g. Nitrile) - if necessary tricoted to improve the wearability. After use of gloves apply skin-cleaning agents and skin cosmetics.

· Material of gloves
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Nitrile rubber, NBR; Recommended thickness of the material: >= 0.4 mm

· Penetration time of glove material: The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
· For the permanent contact gloves made of the following materials are suitable:
Butyl rubber, BR
Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton)
Nitrile rubber, NBR
PVC gloves

Body protection
Protective working cloths

Eye protection
Tightly sealed goggles.

7. Respiratory protection
Not necessary if room is well-ventilated. If vapours or aerosols occur wear suitable respiratory device. In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: No further relevant information available.

Chemical stability
· Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided:
No decomposition if used according to specifications. To avoid thermal decomposition do not overheat.

Possibility of hazardous reactions
Dusty organic products are generally expected to have dust explosion ability. Reacts with strong oxidising agents.

Conditions to avoid: No further relevant information available.
Incompatible materials: No further relevant information available.
Hazardous decomposition products: If stored and handled properly: none known

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods
· Recommendation
Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system. Disposal must be made according to official regulations. Must be recycled or disposed of according to the regulations. Waste has to be classified according to the European Waste Catalogue (EWC) based on the identification of the waste generating source.
