Administrative data

First-aid measures

Inhalation : Remove patient from exposure, keep warm and at rest. Obtain immediate medical attention.

Skin Contact : Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of soap and water. Obtain immediate medical attention.

Eye Contact : Immediately irrigate with eyewash solution or clean water, holding the eyelids apart, for at least 10 minutes. Obtain immediate medical attention.

Ingestion : Provided the patient is conscious, wash out mouth with water and give 200-300 ml of water to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting as a First-Aid measure. Obtain immediate medical attention.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Symptomatic treatment and supportive therapy as indicated.Emergency medical treatment advice varies within different countries.For further information consult the Local National Poisons Information Services.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing Media (suitable) : water spray, foam, dry powder or CO2.

Extinguishing Media (unsuitable) : Avoid high pressure media which could cause the formation of a potentially explosible dust-air mixture.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture : If involved in a fire, it may burn and emit noxious and toxic fumes.

Special protective actions for fire-fighters : A self contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing should be worn in fire conditions.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures : Ensure suitable personal protection during removal of spillages.  Avoid dispersal of dust in the air.

Environmental Precautions : Prevent entry into drains, sewers or watercourses.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up : Moisten spillages with water. Transfer to a container for disposal. Wash the spillage area clean with water and detergent.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling : Do not breathe dust. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. The material may form explosible dust-air mixture if dispersed. Dust clouds are extremely sensitive to ignition by electrostatic discharge or other ignition sources. Ensure good earthing of equipment and personnel.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities : Keep containers properly sealed when not in use. Keep refrigerated. Protect from light.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure Controls

Atmospheric levels should be controlled using the principles of good occupational hygiene practice as specified in the workplace risk assessment.Prevent entry into drains, sewers or watercourses.

Occupational exposure controls

Decisions about whether the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is appropriate as part of the control strategy should be based on the workplace risk assessment and should take account of local legislative requirements for selection and use. There are multiple factors that will affect the specific requirements such as amount and concentration of the material, duration of exposure, frequency of exposure, external environmental conditions, the task, the user etc.

The information below should not be used in isolation and should be considered in the context of the workplace risk assessment on a case by case basis.

Respiratory protection

Use a negative pressure air purifying respirator (half face mask) with filter class P3 if the risk assessment does not support the selection of other protection.

Skin protection

Use protective clothing to protect against direct contact with the substance if the risk assessment does not support the selection of other protection. Use impervious protective gloves to protect against direct contact with the substance. If the substance is dissolved or wetted use a glove material that is resistant to the solvent/liquid.

Eye protection

Use safety glasses to protect against direct contact with the substance if the risk assessment does not support the selection of other protection.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity : No known reactivity hazard under normal conditions.

Chemical stability : Stable under normal conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions : None known.

Conditions to avoid : No conditions producing hazardous situations known.

Incompatible materials : None known.

Hazardous decomposition products : No hazardous decomposition products are known.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods : Disposal should be in accordance with local, state or national legislation. Waste, even small quantities, should never be poured down drains, sewers or water courses. Dispose of contents/ container to an approved incineration plant.

Contaminated Packaging : Empty container will retain residue. Observe all hazard precautions.
