First-aid measures

General information: Seek medical assistance if discomfort continues

After inhalation: Remove the casualty into fresh air and keep him calm.

After contact with skin:

In the event of contact with the skin wash immediately with polyethylene glycol, then with plenty of water.

After contact with eyes:

Rinse immediately with gently running water for 15 minutes, maintaining eyelids open. Consult at once an ophthalmologist or a physician.

After ingestion:

Do not induce vomiting.

Call in a physician immediately and show him the Safety Data Sheet.

Let plenty of water be drunk in small gulps.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: Treat symptomatically

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: water spray jet, foam

Extinguishing media that must not be used for safety reasons:

Full water jet, carbon dioxide, dry powder

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides

Special protective equipment for firefighting: Use self-contained breathing apparatus

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear suitable personal protective equipment.

Environmental precautions:

Do not allow entry to drains,water courses or soil

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Take up mechanically

Avoid dust formation and electrical charging (sparking) because dust explosion might occur.

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling:

Keep the formation and deposition of dust to a minimum.

Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if necessary).

When filling, transferring, or emptying of containers, adequate suctioning close to work place necessary.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:

Take precautionary measures against electrostatic charges - earthing necessary during loading operations.

Keep away from sources of ignition

Dust can form an explosive mixture with air.

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

Keep only in the original container

Further information on storage conditions:

Keep container tightly closed and dry in a cool, well-ventilated place

Exposure controls / personal protection

This substance is exclusively used as an intermediate to be consumed in a chemical reaction for the synthesis of other chemical compounds.

During its lifecycle the substance is handled under strictly controlled conditions and is rigorously contained in accordance with Art. 18.

Based on the knowledge of the basic hazards to humans and environment technical, organizational and PPE measures are taken to minimize release and exposure of this substance. National regulatory requirements for the handling of chemicals are also fulfilled. Employees are regularly trained. The efficiency of these measures is controlled e.g. by workplace measurements. In case of deviations these measures are adapted.

General protective measures

Observe the usual precautions for handling chemicals.

Hygiene measures:

At work do not eat, drink, smoke or take drugs.

Keep away from foodstuffs and beverages.

Wash hands before breaks and after work.

Use barrier skin cream.

When removing product, ensure that none is left on the outer packaging.

Respiratory protection : Wear dust mask when handling large quantities

Hand protection : Chemical resistant gloves

Observe the information of the glove manufacturers on permeability and breakthrough times and other workplace requirements

Eye protection : safety glasses

Body protection : working clothes

Stability and reactivity

Chemical stability: Under normal conditions the product is stable.

Disposal considerations

Product: Product should be be taken to a suitable and authorized waste disposal site in accordance with relevant regulations and if necessary after consultation with the waste disposal operator and/or the competent Authorities

Uncleaned packaging: Packaging that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of as product waste
