First-aid measures

* Description of first aid measures

First aid measures

- General information In all the cases : Immediate medical attention is required.

- Inhalation : Assure fresh air breathing. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.

- Skin contact : Wash skin thoroughly with mild soap and water.

- Eye contact : Rinse with water.

- Ingestion : If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).

* Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed :  To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.

* Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed : No data available.

Fire-fighting measures

* Extinguish media : Use water spray. Alcohol-resistant foam. Dry powder. Carbon dioxide.

* Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture : Carbon oxides.

* Advice for fire-fighters : If necessary, use an autonomous respiratory protection for the fire control.

Accidental release measures

* Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures : Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in section 8. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Avoid inhaling vapors, fogs of pulverizing or gases. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation.

* Environmental precautions : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be

avoided.

* Methods and material for containment and cleaning up : Collect and evacuate without creating dust. Sweep and deprive of the shovel. Keep in bowls adapted and closed for the elimination.

* Reference to other sections : For disposal see section 13.

Handling and storage

* Precautions for safe handling : Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Provide adequate ventilation where dust is formed. Normal measures for preventive fire

protection.

* Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities : Store in tightly closed containers. Store in dry, cool, well-ventilated area.

* Specific end use(s) : No data available.

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 18(4) for transported isolated intermediate. Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management system is available at each site. Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every Downstream user of the intermediate

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters

* Personal protection

- Respiratory protection : Respiratory protection is not required. Use a typical protective mask N95 ( US) or of type(chap) P1 (IN 143) to protect itself from levels of dusts. Use material tested and  approved by standards such as NIOSH ( US) or CEN (Eu).

- Skin protection : Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

- Eye protection : Facial protection and safety goggles. Use an equipment of protection of eyes, tested and approved according to the current governmental standards, such as NIOSH ( US) or IN 166 (EU).

- Hand protection : caoutchouc butyle (FR) Butyl rubber (EN). Manipulate with gloves. Gloves have to be controlled before the use. Use a technique of withdrawal of gloves suited to avoid that the skin contacts the product (i.e. without touching the outside surface of the glove). Throw gloves contaminated after the use according to the current laws and to the good practices of laboratory. Wash and dry hands. The selected gloves have to satisfy the specifications of the EU Directive 89 / 686 /EEC and in the standard IN 374 which derives from it.

Industrial hygiene : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure.

* Occupational Exposure Limits

VME (FRANCE) : 1 ppm // 7 mg/m3.
