Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Immediately remove contaminated clothing.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
Wash thoroughly with soap and water
On contact with eyes:
Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open.
On ingestion:
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical attention.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms: Information, i.e. additional information on symptoms and effects may be included in the
GHS labeling phrases available in Section 2 and in the Toxicological assessments available in
Section 11., (Further) symptoms and / or effects are not known so far
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
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
dry powder, foam
Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons:
carbon dioxide
Additional information:
Avoid whirling up the material/product because of the danger of dust explosion.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Endangering substances: harmful vapours
Advice: Evolution of fumes/fog. The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in
case of fire.
Advice for fire-fighters
Special protective equipment:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information:
The degree of risk is governed by the burning substance and the fire conditions. Contaminated
extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid dust formation. Use personal protective clothing.
Environmental precautions
Contain contaminated water/firefighting water. Do not discharge into drains/surface
waters/groundwater.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
For small amounts: Pick up with suitable appliance and dispose of.
For large amounts: Contain with dust binding material and dispose of.
Avoid raising dust.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Provide a good standard of general ventilation (not less than 3 - 5 air changes per hour) Wear
chemically resistant gloves in combination with specific activity training Breathing must be protected
when large quantities are decanted without local exhaust ventilation. Avoid inhalation of the product.
Avoid skin contact. Avoid splashing. Avoid contact with contaminated tools. Ensure minimization of
manual phases Ensure good work practices are implemented. Provide specific employee training to
prevent/minimize exposures. Supervision in place to check that the RMMs in place are being used
correctly and OCs followed.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Avoid dust formation. Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Segregate from acids and bases. Segregate from strong oxidizing agents. Segregate from foods and
animal feeds.
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool
place.

8.2. Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Suitable respiratory protection for higher concentrations or long-term effect: Particle filter with
medium efficiency for solid and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2)
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN ISO 374-1)
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,
corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN ISO 374-1):
e.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and other
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:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
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
Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.
No eating, drinking, smoking or tobacco use at the place of work. Handle in accordance with good
industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Corrosion to metals: Corrosive effects to metal are not anticipated.
Formation of
flammable gases:
Remarks: Forms no flammable gases in the
presence of water.
Chemical stability
The product is stable if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
In spite of the dedusting carried out for reasons of industrial health a dust explosion hazard can not
be excluded.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid dust formation. Avoid deposition of dust. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, open
flame. Avoid electro-static charge.

Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
Must be disposed of or incinerated in accordance with local regulations.
Contaminated packaging:
Uncontaminated packaging can be re-used.
Packs that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
