Skin contact - Wash affected area with plenty of water and soap. Removed contaminated clothing immediately.
Eye contact - Flush eyes with moderate water stream. Never neutralize.
Ingestion - Rinse mouth with fresh water, give to drink some 0,2-0,3 l water containing active carbon (e.g. 5 tbs Carbsorb) and within not more than one hour induce vomiting (meaningless if induced later). Give active carbon repeatedly, no matter if the vomiting was induced or not. Seek medical advice. Do not induce vomiting in case of unconsciousness, convulsions or bad physical conditions.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media - Alcohol-resistant foam concentrate, water mist, water spray, powders, carbon dioxide.
Special hazards - Salts, primary explosives like, are formed with alkalis. In case of burning, oxides of nitrogen are formed.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters - Self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Accidental release measures
Prevent access to unauthorised persons to the place of leakage. Use personal protective equipment. Avoid release to surface and ground water, prevent spraying of product by wind. If it is not possible, inform police and firefighters.
Methods for cleaning up:Collect and place spilled product in impermeable packages, sweep up the place carefully, collect contaminated earth. Incinerate after adding of wood only in the approved place in accordance with national regulations.
Handling and storage
This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 18(4). Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each Manufacturing site.
Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from everx affected Distributor and Downstream Manufacturer/User of the Registrantś intermediate.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing dust. Observe general personal hygiene measures, wear suitable protective clothing and gloves. After handling wash with water and soap. Do not expose to heat efforts. Ensure drink water for the first-aid.
Storage conditions - Store in original tightly closed containers. Keep away from sources of heat.
