Tetrakis(bis(2-ethylhexyl)ammonium)molybdate(VI)

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove from exposure area to fresh air. If breathing has

stopped, perform artificial respiration. Keep person warm

and at rest. Seek medical attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash eyes with large amounts of water or normal saline,

occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence

of chemical remains (approximately 15-20 minutes). Seek

medical attention immediately.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothes and shoes. Wash affected area

with soap or a mild detergent and large amounts of water

until no evidence of the chemical remains (approximately 15-

20 minutes). Seek medical attention if irritation persists.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical attention immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Extinguish using agent suitable for the type of surrounding

group.

Product arising from burning: In case of fire molybdenum trioxide and Bis(2-

ethylhexyl)amine will be formed. Extinguish using agent

suitable for the type of surrounding group. Fire fighters to

wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to

the relevant national or international standards as

mentioned in section 2.3.00.

For large spills avoid generating dust during clean up,

place in suitable clean, dry containers for reclamation or

later disposal. Residue should be cleaned up using a high-

efficiency particulate filter vacuum. Prevent entry into

drains, waters or soil.

Dispose of waste material by incineration in accordance with

local regulations.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used in

conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with

any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the

substance.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled

appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.

Such protective equipment should conform to the appropriate

international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard EN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard EN166

When necessary appropriate respiratory protection should be

used.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Keep container sealed. Store in cool places. Ensure adequate

ventilation. Store away from incompatible substances.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 5L metal pails.

SpecialProvisions

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: Stable under normal temperatures and pressures. Thermal

decomposition may release toxic and/or hazardous gases.

Prevent dispersion of dust in the air.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported

Dust explosion: There is no anticipated potential dust explosion hazard as

the substance is an inorganic crystalline solid.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery from minor spillages or accidental discharge is not

economically or technically feasible, and such waste

material will be    disposed of by incineration or landfill.

In principle, it may be possible to recover larger

spillages of uncontaminated material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The substance is not hazardous. No chemical and/or physical

treatments have been identified.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning

under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment

processor in accordance with local regulations. Stack gases

should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg molybdenum

trioxide and Bis(2-ethylhexyl)amine) could  be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not be discharged directly to the

sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not possible.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not possible.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: None.
