Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
General information Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Inhalation Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing stops, provide artificial respiration. When breathing is difficult, properly trained personnel may assist affected person by administering oxygen. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist.
Ingestion Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Give plenty of water to drink. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist.
Skin contact Remove contaminated clothing. Rinse with water. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist.
Eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Extinguish with alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder or water fog. Use fireextinguishing media suitable for the surrounding fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards: None known.
Hazardous combustion products Thermal decomposition or combustion products may include the following substances: Oxides of carbon. Oxides of nitrogen.
Advice for firefighters:
Special protective equipment for firefighters
Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing. Firefighter's clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents. Use protective equipment appropriate for surrounding materials.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. No action shall be taken without appropriate training or involving any personal risk. Do not touch or walk into spilled material. Avoid inhalation of dust and vapours. Provide adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions Environmental precautions Avoid discharge into drains or watercourses or onto the ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up: Wear protective clothing. Collect powder using special dust vacuum cleaner with particle filter or carefully sweep into suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely. Clear up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Flush contaminated area with plenty of water. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Usage precautions Wear protective clothing. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid generation and spreading of dust. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust and vapours.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage precautions: Keep container tightly closed. Store at room temperature.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Occupational exposure limits: No exposure limits known for ingredient(s).
Appropriate engineering controls
Provide adequate ventilation. Observe any occupational exposure limits for the product or ingredients.
Eye/face protection Unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection is required, the following protection should be worn: Tight-fitting safety glasses. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should comply with European Standard EN166.
Hand protection Wear protective gloves. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves should comply with European Standard EN374.
Other skin and body protection Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact.
Respiratory protection Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible. Ensure all respiratory protective equipment is suitable for its intended use and is ‘CE’-marked. Particulate filter, type P1. Particulate filters should comply with European Standard EN143. Full face mask respirators with replaceable filter cartridges should comply with European Standard EN136. Half mask and quarter mask respirators with replaceable filter cartridges should comply with European Standard EN140.
Environmental exposure controls Keep container tightly sealed when not in use.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity No data available
Chemical stability Stable under the prescribed storage conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions No data available.
Conditions to avoid Heat, sparks, flames.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
General information: Dispose of waste to licensed waste disposal site in accordance with the requirements of the local Waste Disposal Authority. This material and its container must be disposed of in a safe way. When handling waste, the safety precautions applying to handling of the product should be considered.
Disposal methods: Mix or dissolve the material in a combustible solvent and burn in chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber.
