Description of first aid measures

General advice

:

Move out of dangerous area.

Remove contaminated or saturated clothing.

Seek medical advice in case of symptoms caused by eye or skin contact, inhalation or swallowing.

If inhaled

:

Bring affected person outside and ensure that he/she is com-fortable.

In case of skin contact

:

Upon skin contact, wash with plenty of water and soap.

When handling hot molten mass::

Following contact with hot product, cool quickly with cold wa-ter until pain ceases. Do not remove congealed product from the skin.

Call a physician immediately.

In case of eye contact

:

Open the eyes and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.

If swallowed

5.3 Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters

:

In the case of fire, wear respiratory protective equipment in-dependent of surrounding air and chemical protective suit.

Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions

:

Wear personal protective equipment; see section 8.

Avoid dust formation.

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Dispose of ignition sources.

6.2 Environmental precautions

Environmental precautions

:

Product or extinguishing water with product must not be al-lowed to enter soil, sewers or natural bodies of water.

6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up

:

Sweep up and shovel.

Handling and storage

7.1 Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling

:

The substance must be handled under strictly controlled con-ditions in accordance with Article 17/18 of the REACH regula-tion.

For professional use only.

Provide sufficient ventilation and exhaust at the workplace.

Avoid dust formation.

Do not allow individual / bulk containers to stand open

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

:

If dusts develop, explosive dust/air mixtures may form. When handling hot molten mass:: Vapours can form explosive mix-tures with air. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Hygiene measures

:

Do not breathe vapours/dust. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Take off clothing and shoes contaminated with product. Clean before reuse. Do not eat, drink or smoke while working. Wash hands, and/or face before breaks and when workday is finished. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.
