ADEKA OPTOMER SP-170P

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention.

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

medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash affected areas with soap and water. Seek medical

attention if irritation occurs.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray or fog, CO2 or dry chemical.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and sulphur oxides

and antimony and fluorine containing compounds). However,

there is no experimental evidence to support the anticipated

combustion products.

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.

Absorb spillages 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 detergent.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local

regulations.

Avoid directing washings to the drains.

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 equipmemt should conform to the

appropriate international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard prEN374

Chemical resistant clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard prEN166

When necessary, appropriate respiratory protection should be

used, for example a dust mask conforming to international

standard EN149 FFP1.

Storage: Store in the dark, in a dry well-ventilated area.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Substance only available in formulation in:

a) 1 litre polyethylene bottle

b) 20 litre polyethylene container

SpecialProvisions

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None known

Chemical reaction with water: None.

Dust explosion: None anticipated, as the substance is imported into the EC

as a component of a paste preparation. There is a potential

dust explosion alert from the neat substance.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

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

acutely harmful by oral ingestion. No chemical treatment is

practicable to neutralise this hazardous health property.

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 or 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 and sulphur oxides and antimony and fluorine

containing compounds) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment. However,

adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be

unlikely at this supply level.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
