Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

- Symptoms: No available information.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

- Treatment: No data available. Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:

- Suitable extinguishing media: carbon dioxide, dry powder, foam

- Unsuitable extinguishing media: Strong water jet.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

- In case of fire, the product may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes.

- Supposed thermal decomposition/oxidation: Carbon monoxide and Carbon dioxide, Hydrogen chloride (HCl), Hydrogen fluoride (HF), can induce explosive mixures (vapours heavier than air).

Advice for firefighters:

- Special protective equipment for firefighting: Use self-contained breathing apparatus.

- Further information: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Cool containers/tanks with water spray. Avoid discharging extinguishing water in the environment.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Appropriate gas full face respirator or air supplied hood depending on released quantities. Anti-acid gloves, boots and work clothes.

Environmental precautions:

Avoid any spreading of product.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

- General advice:  Take up with an absorbent material (eg. Sand, Kieselguhr or universal binder). Sweep and shovel the solid product in an adapted container for its recovery or destroying (avoiding dust formation). Close and label rigorously.

- Cleaning of contaminated zone: After taking up the product, rinse the polluted area with water.

- Elimination of recovered materials: Deliver to Environmental service of the factory or to any specializedand approved disposal service.

Additional advice:

Evacuation of area and intervention of special services.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

- Advice on safe handling (industrial scale): Local ventilation and emission point fume extraction. Enclosed transfer recommended. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic loading. Earth vessels and equipment well.

- Advice on safe handling (laboratory scale): Handling under hood with protective screen.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

- Requirements for storage rooms and vessels: Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place.

- Advice on common storage: Do not store with strong oxidizing agents.

- Further information on storage conditions: Keep in a well closed container.

- Storage temperature: Keep away from heat.

- Packaging material advised: brown glass.

- Sensitivity: No particular observation.
