Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove from exposure area and keep at rest. Seek medical

advice.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes

if contact occurs. It is also recommended that a medical

check is performed.

Emergency measure - Skin: It is recommended that hands and arms are washed with soap

and water. If extensive skin contact occurs, remove

contaminated clothing and wash contacted skin with soap and

water. In the unlikely event that irritation occurs seek

medical advice.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, water foam, dry powder or carbon dioxide

extinguishers should be used.

Product arising from burning: The substance is a flame retardant and therefore not

anticipated to be combustible when involved in a fire.

However particulates may be present in smoke and vapour if

involved in a fire. However, there is no experimental

evidence to support this.

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 2.3.10.

Small spills can be washed to drain with copious amounts of

water.

Large spillages should be mixed with a suitable inert

material (eg sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage

to waste containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum

machine. Containers filled with waste material must be

labelled in the same way as the original containers.

Clean the spillage area with water and discharge to drain

with large quantities of water.

Dispose of waste material 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. e.g. a dust mask conforming to EN149 FFP1.

The standards mentioned above should be regarded as a

minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area out of direct

sunlight.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

The material should be protected against moisture i.e. in a

closed system.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Packaged in welded polyethylene bags, enclosed in paper bags

or metal drums.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. 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 notification tests have shown that the substance is not

considered hazardous to health. No chemical methods are

avaiable to neutrsalise any environmental effects.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with

inert material (eg sand or soil) may be disposed of by

landfill at an authorised tip in accordance with local

regulations.

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 carbon,

nitrogen and phosphorus oxides)could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance may be discharged directly to the sewage

system or the aqueous environment. However any release to

the water purification system is unlikely to have adverse

effects.

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

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: None

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

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

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance has been shown not to be harmful to water

purification systems.
