Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- General advice:
Move out of dangerous area.
Place and transport victim in stable position (lying sideways).
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and dispose of safely.
- After inhalation:
Move to fresh air.
Keep patient warm and at rest.
Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
- After skin contact:
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.
If symptoms persist, call a physician.
- After eye contact:
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids,
for at least 15 minutes.
Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye.
Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
- After swallowing:
Rinse mouth.
Do NOT induce vomiting.
Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Fire-fighting measures
- Suitable extinguishing agents:
Water spray,
Carbon dioxide (CO2),
Foam,
Sand
- Unsuitable extinguishing agents:
unstated
- Special hazards caused by the material, its products of combustion or resulting gases:
In the event of fire the following may be released:
Hydrogen chloride (HCl),
Carbon monoxide (CO),
Sulphur oxides
- Protective equipment:
In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
- Additional information:
Contain the spread of the fire-fighting media.
Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Accidental release measures
- Person-related safety precautions:
Avoid contact with spilled product or contaminated surfaces.
Use personal protective equipment.
Remove all sources of ignition.
- Measures for environmental protection:
Do not allow to get into surface water, drains and ground water.
- Measures for cleaning/collecting:
Use mechanical handling equipment.
Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly, observing environmental regulations.
Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal
Handling and storage
Manufacture and use takes place under strictly controlled conditions. The substance
is rigorously contained (production, use), appropriate risk management measures are
applied and a management system is in place. An authorisation scheme covers the
process and a procedure ensures that only trained and authorised persons handle
the substance. Process procedures for containment during cleaning and
maintenance have been accounted for in plant and engineering design as
appropriate for the site. Procedures to ensure containment have been applied for all
stages of production and processing. Occupational procedures have been assessed
and are documented.
Personal precautions while handling the product:
- respiratory protection:
If product is handled while not enclosed, and if contact may occur:
Wear respirator with a particle filter mask (protection factor 4)
conforming to European norm EN149FFP1 or equivalent.
- hand/skin/body protection:
Wear CE Marked (or equivalent) nitrile rubber gloves (minimum thickness 0,40 mm).
Wash when contaminated.
Dispose of when contaminated inside, when perforated or when contamination outside cannot be removed.
Wash hands always before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.
Wear standard coverall and type 5 suit.
Wear two layers of clothing wherever possible.
Polyester/cotton or cotton overalls should be worn under chemical protection suit and should be professionally laundered frequently.
If chemical protection suit is splashed, sprayed or significantly contaminated, decontaminate as far as possible,
then carefully remove and dispose of as advised by manufacturer.
- eye protection:
Wear goggles conforming to EN166 (Field of Use 5 or equivalent).
- Hygene measures:
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Keep working clothes separately.
Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product.
Remove soiled clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before using again.
Garments that cannot be cleaned must be destroyed (burnt).
