Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing agents: CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: The possibility of formation of explosive dust/air mixtures under certain conditions should be basically considered during handling and processing.
In case of fire, the following can be released:
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Advice for firefighters - Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.
Chemical resistant protective suit. Under the protective suit a fire protective suit according to EN 469 should be applied.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Wear protective clothing. Avoid contact with eyes and skin and clothes. Do not breathe dust.
Access only for trained personnel with personal protective equipment. Use respiratory protective device against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol.
Avoid spillage of product into the environment. Avoid formation of dust. Implementation of further measures based on existing emergency plans.
Environmental precautions: Do not allow to enter sewers/ surface or ground water. Keep contaminated washing water and dispose of appropriately.
Inform respective authorities in case of seepage into water course or sewage system. Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.

Handling and storage

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Pick up mechanically. If formation of dust cannot be avoided use respiratory filter device.
Dispose contaminated material as waste. Observe notes for incompatible materials.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Additional information about design of technical facilities: Take care of sufficient ventilation. Avoid formation of dust.
Waste gases should be led into the atmosphere only via appropriate separators, scrubbers or incinerators.
This product is exclusively dedicated for the application as isolated and transported intermediate under strictly controlled conditions according to Article 18 of Regulation EC 1907/2006.
Personal protective equipment
General protective and hygienic measures: Contaminated protective suit shall be cleaned before taking it off.
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Store protective clothing separately.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Respiratory protection: Particle filter. The filter grade (P1 - P3) has to be established depending on work-place related limit values and the actual exposition.
Protection of hands: Gloves, The following materials are known from experience to be suitable for protection against undissolved solids: rubber.
Eye protection: Safety glasses.
Body protection: Use dust-proof protective suit.
Selection of personal protective suits depending on amount and concentration of hazardous material and on possible exposition at the working place.
