First-aid measures

General information: Immediately remove any clothing soiled by the product.

After inhalation: Supply fresh air; consult doctor in case of complaints.

After skin contact: Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly.

After eye contact: Dust may irritate eyes mechanically. Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. If symptoms persist, consult a phyician.

After swallowing: If symptoms persist consult phyician.

Chronic effects: Persistant exposition of inhalable dust above threshold limits may cause cough, shortness of breath or chronic pneumonia.

Medicinal indications which may be aggravated by exposition: Breathing in of dust or vapours may complicate existing respiratory disease or other medical indications like emphysema or asthma.

Exposition may also aggravate existing skin disease or eye complaint.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

No specific antidote.

Symptomatic treatment.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing agents: CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

The possibility of formation of explosive dust/air mixtures under certain

conditions should be basically considered during handling and

processing.

In case of fire, the following can be released: Carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx)

Advice for firefighters, Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.

Chemical resistant protective suit.

Under the protective suit a fire protective suit according to EN 469 should be applied.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Wear protective clothing.

Use respiratory protective device against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol. Avoid formation of dust.

Environmental precautions: Keep contaminated washing water and dispose of appropriately.

Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Pick up mechanically. If formation of dust cannot be avoided use respiratory filter device.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling: Any unavoidable deposit of dust must be completely removed. Fill only in dedicated and assigned containers.

Keep containers tightly sealed.

Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Store in a cool location.

Corrosion of metals: Test method according to CLP is not applicable (solid material at 55°C). It should generally be borne in mind that there is a possibility of corrosion on contact with this material. Resistance should be checked in each individual case.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Additional information about design of technical facilities: Take care of sufficient ventilation. Avoid formation of dust.

Respiratory protection: Particle fi lter. The fi lter grade (P1 - P3) has to be established depending on work-place related limit values and the actual exposition.

Protection of hands: Protective gloves

The following material is known from experience to be suitable for protection against undissolved solids: rubber.

Eye protection: Safety glasses

Body protection: Necessary protective suit has to be selected individually based on risk assessment.

Risk management measures: General protective and hygienic measures have to be observed.

Handling and use of this material/formulation only under controlled conditions in closed systems.

Employees who use this material/formulation must be trained and demonstrably instructed about possible risks for man and environment.

Measures for prevention of hazards in case of unwanted leakage shall be implemented.

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: No decomposition if used according to specifications.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: The possibility of formation of explosive dust/air mixtures under certain conditions should be principally considered during handling and processing.

Incompatible materials: Strong oxidizing agents, bases.

Hazardous decomposition products: Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods, recommendation: Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.

Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system. If possible recovery or recycling.

Empty contaminated packagings thoroughly. They may be recycled after thorough and proper cleaning.

Packagings that may not be cleansed are to be disposed of in the same manner as the product.
