Administrative data

First-aid measures

General advice: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.

Inhalation: dust inhalation, inhalation of vapours due to decompostion of product: move to fresh air. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. In cas of problems: consult a physician.

Skin contact: wash immediately, abundantly and toroughly with soap and water.

Eye contact: wash well-open eyes immediately, abundantly and thoroughly with water. Remove particles remaining under the eyelids. If irritation persists, consult an ophtamologist.

Ingestion: consult a physician

Protection of first-aiders: in case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

suitable extinguishing media: use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Dry powder, carbon dioxide (CO2)

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Temperature exceeding 350°C. Thermal decomposition giving toxic products: carbon oxides, organic vapours

Advice for firefighters

Specific methods: ensure a system for the rapid emptying of containers. In case of fire nearby, remove the bags

Special protective actions for fire-fighters: wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suits

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Do not breathe vapours/dust. Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment

Environmental precautions:

Do not release into the environment. Do not let product enter drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

Recovery: shovel into suitable container for disposal. Sweep up to prevent slipping hazard. No sparkling tools should be used.

Elimination: Destroy the product by incineration (in accordance with local and national regulations).
