In case of eye contact: In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
If swallowed: If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Any
Unsuitable extinguishing agents: None
Thermal decomposition: Fire may cause evolution of: Carbon dioxide (CO2), Carbon monoxide (CO)
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.
Further information: Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.
Accidental release measures
Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
Enviromental Precautions: Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
Methods for cleaning or taking up: Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protectedvacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations.
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling: Measures must be taken to prevent dust explosion when processing in fine crystalline form.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.
Requirements for storage areas and containers: For storage suitable stores with adequate product-reception volume must be used. During handling local official regulations must be observed in order to avert impairment of water by the product.
