For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: water with full jet, high pressure extinguishing media.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: In case of fire, the following can be released:

Carbon monoxide (CO)

Nitrogen oxides (NOx)

Hydrogen chloride (HCl)

Chlorine (Cl2)

Advice for firefighters

Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.

Chemical resistant protective suit. Under the protective suit a fire protective suit according to EN 469 should be applied.

Additional information: 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 clothing.

Avoid contact with eyes and skin and clothes. Do not breathe dust.

Access only for trained personnel with personal protective equipment.

Use respiratory protective device against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol.

Avoid spillage of product into the environment.

Avoid formation of dust.

Implementation of further measures based on existing emergency plans.

Environmental precautions: Keep contaminated washing water and dispose of appropriately.

Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Pick up mechanically. If formation of dust cannot be avoided use respiratory filter device.

Do not refill spilled product into original container.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

Empty containers must not be used for other products.

Contaminated protective equipment should be cleaned before taking it off.

Any unavoidable deposit of dust must be completely removed.

Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace.

Fill only in dedicated and assigned containers.

Keep containers tightly sealed.

Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Store in a cool location.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Additional information about design of technical facilities:

Take care of sufficient ventilation. Avoid formation of dust.

Waste gases should be led into the atmosphere only via appropriate separators, scrubbers or incinerators.

Personal protective equipment, general protective and hygienic measures: Contaminated protective suit shall be cleaned before taking it off.

Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.

Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.

Store protective clothing separately.

Respiratory protection: Particle fi lter. The fi lter grade (P1 - P3) has to be established depending on work-place related limit values and the actual exposition.

Protection of hands: Protective gloves.

The following materials are known from experience to be suitable for protection against undissolved solids: rubber.

Eye protection: Safety glasses.

Body protection: Necessary protective suit has to be selected individually based on risk assessment.

Limitation and supervision of exposure into the environment:

Avoid spillage of product into the environment.

Use this material only in closed systems and devices. In case of open plant systems (sampling devices, filling and discharging, cleansing works etc.) use local exhaust and collecting trays. Follow emission limit values. Measures in case of unwanted emissions should be established.

Risk management measures: General protective and hygienic measures have to be observed.

Handling and use of this material/formulation only under controlled conditions in closed systems.

Employees who use this material/formulation must be trained and demonstrably instructed about possible risks for man and environment.

Measures for prevention of hazards in case of unwanted leakage shall be implemented.

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: No decomposition if used according to specifications.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reactions known.

Hazardous decomposition products:

Nitrogen oxides

Hydrogen chloride (HCl)

Chlorine

Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods, recommendation:

Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system.

Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.

If possible recovery or recycling.

Empty contaminated packagings thoroughly. They may be recycled after thorough and proper cleaning.
