Administrative data
First-aid measures
ANy exposure is out of approval for this substance and woudl warrant assessment by medical team: Remove casualty from exposure ensuring one's own safety whilst doing so. If conscious, ensure the casualty sits or lies down. Consult a doctor.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media: Alcohol or polymer foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide. Use water spray to cool containers.
Exposure hazards: In combustion emits toxic fumes of carbon dioxide / carbon monoxide. / In combustion emits toxic fumes of sulphur oxides.
Advice for fire-fighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear protective clothing to prevent contact
with skin and eyes.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Refer to section 8 of SDS for personal protection details. Mark out the contaminated area with signs and prevent access to unauthorised personnel.
Environmental precautions: Do not discharge into drains or rivers. Contain the spillage using bunding.
Clean-up procedures: Do not use equipment in clean-up procedure which may produce sparks. Absorb into dry earth or sand. Transfer to a closable, labelled salvage container for disposal by an appropriate method.
Handling and storage
Handling requirements: Ensure there is exhaust ventilation of the area. Use non-sparking tools. Earth any equipment used in handling. Avoid direct contact with the substance as there should be no exposure- contact under SCC
Storage conditions: Store in cool, well ventilated area. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid incompatible materials and conditions.

Engineering measures: Ensure there is exhaust ventilation of the area. Ensure lighting and electrical equipment are not a source of ignition.
Respiratory protection: Self-contained breathing apparatus must be available in case of emergency.
Hand protection: PVC gloves. / Rubber gloves.
Eye protection: Safety goggles. Ensure eye bath is to hand.
Skin protection: Apron. Boots.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity: Stable under recommended transport or storage conditions.
Chemical stability: Stable under normal conditions.
Hazardous reactions: Decomposition may occur on exposure to conditions or materials listed below.
Conditions to avoid: Heat. Sources of ignition.
Materials to avoid: Acids. Strong oxidising agents.
Hazardous decomposition products: Slowly decomposes to Carbon disulphide(CS2). Contact with acids liberates Carbon disulphide(CS2). In combustion emits toxic fumes of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. In combustion emits toxic fumes of sulphur oxides.
Disposal considerations
Waste is incinerated in lean stream on site.
