Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation: Move to a fresh air atmosphere. In case of persistent symptoms, consult a doctor.
Skin contact: Wash with soap and water.
Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Ingestion: No adverse health effects anticipated by this route, however, in the event of ingestion, increase intake of liquid in order to flush from the body. In case of persistent symptoms, consult a doctor.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing Methods: Use any media appropriate for combustible material in the area.
Specific risks: Product is inert, non flammable and non combustible.
Special intervention methods: Product is inert, non flammable and non combustible.
Protection of fire-fighters: Usual protective equipment for fire fighters.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Avoid generation of dust. Ensure adequate ventilation. Wear personal protective equipment.
Environmental precautions: Prevent run-off from entering ground, storm sewers and ditches which lead to natural waterways.
Cleaning Methods: Use any feasible mechanical means (e.g. vacuum, sweeping) but avoid dusting during clean-up. The product can cause slippery conditions if wet. Even at low concentration, the product renders the discharge in liquid effluent highly visible.
Handling and storage
Handling: Avoid raising and breathing dust. Observe good industrial hygiene practice for chemical handling.
Technical Measures: Avoid raising dust. Handling systems and areas should be operated in such a way as to minimise exposure to dust.
Precautions: Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary. Handle minimising dust. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Advice on usage: Manual handling guidelines should be adhered to when handling sacks.
Storage conditions: Pigments should not be stored in outside areas exposed to the weather. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to moisture.
Incompatible materials: None.
Packing material: Paper, Plastic.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Technical measures
Control parameters: Ensure sufficient ventilation. Reduce inhalation hazards in minimising the occupational exposure. Comply with the Occupational Exposure Limits found in National Guidance documents.
Protective equipment
Respiratory protection: A respirator must be used if the dust concentration is likely to exceed the occupational exposure limit. An approved dust respirator is recommended as appropriate depending on dust levels and other workplace factors.
Skin protection: Respect main rules concerning the protection clothes for chemicals handling.
Hand protection: Prolonged exposure should be avoided by wearing suitable impervious protective gloves.
Environmental exposure controls: Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system.
Eye protection: The use of dustproof goggles or glasses with side protections is recommended if dust concentrations are likely to exceed the occupational exposure limit.
Hygiene Measures: Individuals having sensitive skin may find it beneficial to use a barrier cream or moisturizer when excessive or prolonged contact with the skin is likely.
Engineering controls and safe systems of work should be used in preference to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to minimise the risk of exposure.
Stability and reactivity
Stability: Stable under normal conditions.
Conditions to avoid: None known.
Materials to avoid: None reasonably foreseeable.
Hazardous decomposition products: None known
Disposal considerations
Waste disposal: Dispose of in compliance with local and national regulations.
Residue: EWC Code : 06 11 99. for TiO2 manufacture or other according to origin of waste. Not classified as hazardous waste.
Contaminated packaging: Contaminated packages are not considered hazardous. If recycling is not practicable, dispose of in compliance with local regulations.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
