Administrative data

First-aid measures

General advice:

Remove contaminated clothing.

If inhaled:

After inhalation of decomposition products: Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.

On skin contact:

Wash thoroughly with soap and water.

On contact with eyes:

Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.

On ingestion:

Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention.

Note to physician:

Symptoms: Overexposure may cause:, vomiting, lethargy, confusion, hyperventilation, nausea, headache

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

Use extinguishing measures to suit surroundings.

Specific hazards:

metal compounds,  Phosphorus compounds

The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released if the product is involved in a fire.

Special protective equipment:

Firefighters should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus and turn-out gear.

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

Further information:

Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

Avoid dust formation.

Do not breathe dust.

Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing.

Use personal protective clothing.

Environmental precautions:

Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Methods for cleaning up or taking up:

Sweep up or vacuum small pieces and dusts and place in appropriate container for disposal.

Avoid raising dust.

Reclaim for processing if possible.

Dampen, pick up mechanically and dispose of.

Correctly dispose of recovered product immediately.

Handling and storage

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Protection against fire and explosion:

No special precautions necessary.

Storage

Segregate from incompatible substances.

Further information:

Keep container tightly closed and dry.

Keep container in a well-ventilated place.

Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Components with workplace control parameters

7647-01-0: hydrogen chloride       

7664-41-7: ammonia       

12125-02-9: ammonium chloride

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection:

Breathing protection if dusts are formed. Particle filter with low efficiency for solid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P1or FFP1)

Hand protection:

Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)

Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended:  Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):

nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness

polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness

Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.

Eye protection:

Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)

General safety and hygiene measures:

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

      

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition:       To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.

Substances to avoid:

nitrites, nitrates, oxidizing agents

Hazardous reactions:

Violent reaction under influence of oxidizing agents. Incompatible with bases. Reacts with nitrites.

Hazardous decomposition products:

hydrogen chloride, ammonia

Disposal considerations

Contact manufacturer regarding recycling.

Contact waste centre regarding recycling.

Contaminated packaging:

Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for recycling after being thoroughly cleaned.
