First-aid measures
4.1. Description of first aid measures
First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety. If the patient is likely to become unconscious, place and transport in stable sideways position (recovery position). Immediately remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention. Immediately administer a corticosteroid from a controlled/metered dose inhaler.
On skin contact:
Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.
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:
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms: The most important known symptoms and effects are described in the labelling (see section 2) and/or in section 11.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.
Fire-fighting measures
5.1. Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
dry powder, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:
foam, water
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
phosphine, carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide, harmful vapours, chlorine compounds, phosphorus oxides
The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.
5.3. Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.
Further information:
Fire debris must be disposed of in accordance with offical regulations. Do not allow to enter drains or waterways.
Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid inhalation.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For large amounts: Dike spillage. Pump off product.
For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations.
Do not rinse with water. Do not use foam. Cleaning operations should be carried out only while wearing breathing apparatus. Collect waste in suitable containers, which can be labeled and sealed. Incinerate or take to a special waste disposal site in accordance with local authority regulations.
6.4. Reference to other sections
Information regarding exposure controls/personal protection and disposal considerations can be found in section 8 and 13.
Handling and storage
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Product should be worked up in closed equipment as far as possible. Do not mix with water.
Protection against fire and explosion:
The product is combustible. Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Suitable materials for containers: Stainless steel 1.4401, glass, Stainless steel 1.4301 (V2), High density polyethylene (HDPE)
Unsuitable materials for containers: aluminum, Low density polyethylene (LDPE), zinc coated, paper, board, carbon steel (iron), tin (tinplate)
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Protect against moisture.
7.3. Specific end use(s)
For the relevant identified use(s) listed in Section 1 the advice mentioned in this section 7 is to be observed.

Exposure controls / personal protection
8.1. Control parameters
Components with occupational exposure limits
No occupational exposure limits known.
DNEL
No DNELs have been derived.
8.2. Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Self-contained breathing apparatus.
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):
fluoroelastomer (FKM) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2, corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374)
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 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:
Tightly fitting safety goggles (cage goggles) (e.g. EN 166) and face shield.
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of dust).
General safety and hygiene measures
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapour/spray. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Store work clothing separately.
Stability and reactivity
10.1. Reactivity
Corrosion to metals:
Corrosive effect on metals.
Formation of flammable gases: Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the presence of water.
10.2. Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated. The product is stable under inert gas.
10.3. Possibility of hazardous reactions
Substance/product is highly reactive. Contact with water or moisture liberates irritant gases. Reacts with water, with formation of hydrogen chloride. Addition of water leads to increase in temperature. Self-ignition is possible when finely distributed on flammable surfaces in the presence of air.
10.4. Conditions to avoid
Avoid humidity. Protect from atmospheric humidity.
10.5. Incompatible materials
Substances to avoid:
Water
10.6. Hazardous decomposition products
Possible thermal decomposition products:
phosphine, Phenylphosphine
phosphines
Disposal considerations
13.1. Waste treatment methods
Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.
A waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) cannot be specified, due to dependence on the usage.
The waste code in accordance with the European waste catalog (EWC) must be specified in cooperation with disposal agency/manufacturer/authorities.
Contaminated packaging:
Uncontaminated packaging can be re-used.
Packs that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
