First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

General advice Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.  

Inhalation Remove to fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician. Oxygen, if needed.  

Skin contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.  

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

Ingestion Call a physician immediately. In the case of spontaneous vomiting, hold person's head low to prevent inhalation into the wind-pipe. Rinse mouth. If conscious, drink plenty of water.  

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Lung: irritation causing coughing Eyes: conjunctivitis

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treat symptomatically.  Irritation of the skin and mucus membranes can be treated with corticosteroids.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media Water spray Dry powder Foam Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Extinguishing media which shall not be used for safety reasons High volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. Carbon monoxide Sulphur oxides

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.

Additional advice

Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Remove all sources of ignition. Do not breathe dust. Refer to protective measures listed in appropriate sections.

Environmental precautions Do not contaminate water. Should not be released into the environment. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling:

Provide for appropriate exhaust ventilation and dust collection at machinery. Wear personal protective equipment. Handle and open container with care. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:

Explosive properties Dust may form explosive mixture in air. Take measures to prevent the buildup of electrostatic charge. The product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other sources of ignition have been excluded.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

Store in original container. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place.

Advice on common storage: Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs.

Other data:  Store in original container.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters  

Limit for dust 3 mg/m3 TRGS 900 Germany

Exposure controls

Engineering measures

Local exhaust

Occupational exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection: Effective dust mask.

Hand protection: Protective gloves (Polychloroprene / Layer thickness 0,5 - 0,7 mm / Break through time > 480 min (level 6) / EN 374-3 or Nitrile latex / Layer thickness 0,4 mm / Break through time > 480 min (level 6) / EN 374.

Data obtained from similar substances:

General recommendation:  the usage time for protective gloves is approx. 50% of the breakthrough time measured in the laboratory.

Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles

Skin and body protection: Safety shoes Protective suit

Environmental exposure controls

General advice: Do not contaminate water. Should not be released into the environment. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

No dangerous reaction known under conditions of normal use.

Chemical stability

Note: Store in original container.

Hazardous reactions

Conditions to avoid

Note: Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.

Incompatible materials to avoid

Keep away from oxidizing agents.

Hazardous decomposition products

In case of fire hazardous decomposition products may be produced such as:  COx and SOx.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods  

Waste from residues / unused products: Avoid release to the environment. Can be incinerated, when in compliance with local regulations. This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste.  

Disposal of contaminated packaging: This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste.

Suitable cleaning agents industrial cleaning agent

Waste Code 16 05 08: discarded organic chemicals consisting of or containing dangerous substances

Additional advice: The allocation of waste key numbers must be conducted according to specific industrial sectors and processes. Above-mentioned waste code number is valid for the unused product. Obtain approval of the relevant authorities before discharging into a sewage treatment plant. This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste.
