Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General advice:
Remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
After inhalation of decomposition products: Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water.
On contact with eyes:
Immediately wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open, consult an eye specialist.
On ingestion:
Rinse mouth immediately and then drink plenty of water, seek medical attention.
Note to physician:
Symptoms: Overexposure may cause:, vomiting, lethargy, confusion, hyperventilation, nausea, headache
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
water
Specific hazards:
ammonia, hydrogen chloride
The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released if the product is involved in a fire.
Special protective equipment:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information:
Product itself is non-combustible; fire extinguishing method of surrounding areas must be considered. In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Large quantities of extinguishing water containing dissolved product should be contained. Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Use personal protective clothing.
Environmental precautions:
Do not empty into drains.
Methods for cleaning up or taking up:
For residues: Pick up in dry form. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Handling and storage
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Protection against fire and explosion:
No special precautions necessary.
Storage
Segregate from alkalies and alkalizing substances. Segregate from nitrites. Segregate from oxidants.
Do not store with: sodium nitrate
Further information on storage conditions: Protect against moisture.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Components with workplace control parameters
7647-01-0: hydrogen chloride
7664-41-7: ammonia
12125-02-9: ammonium chloride
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Breathing protection if dusts are formed. Particle filter with low efficiency for solid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P1or FFP1)
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
General safety and hygiene measures:
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Stability and reactivity
Thermal decomposition: To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.
Substances to avoid:
nitrites, nitrates, oxidizing agents
Hazardous reactions:
Violent reaction under influence of oxidizing agents. Incompatible with bases. Reacts with nitrites.
Hazardous decomposition products:
hydrogen chloride, ammonia
Disposal considerations
Contact manufacturer regarding recycling.
Contact waste centre regarding recycling.
Contaminated packaging:
Contaminated packaging should be emptied as far as possible; then it can be passed on for recycling after being thoroughly cleaned.
