In case of skin contact:

In case of contact, Rinse with water.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

In case of eye contact:

In case of contact, Flush eyes with water as a precaution.

Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

If swallowed:

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

DO NOT induce vomiting.

Rinse mouth thoroughly with water.

Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

Risks: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treatment:

Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters:

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.

Specific extinguishing methods:

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Remove undamaged containers from fire area if it is safe to do so.

Evacuate area.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions:

Use personal protective equipment.

Follow safe handling advice and personal protective equipment recommendations.

Environmental precautions:

Environmental precautions:

Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.

Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up:

Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal.

Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust surfaces with compressed air).

Local or national regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and items employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which regulations are applicable.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Technical measures:

See Engineering measures under EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION section.

Local/Total ventilation:

Use only with adequate ventilation.

Advice on safe handling:

Do not swallow.

Minimize dust generation and accumulation.

Keep container closed when not in use.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice, based on the results of the workplace exposure assessment.

Take care to prevent spills, waste and minimize release to the environment.

Hygiene measures

When using do not eat, drink or smoke.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

Keep in properly labelled containers. Store in accordance with the particular national regulations.

Advice on common storage:

Do not store with the following product types:

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Engineering measures

Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.

Minimize workplace exposure concentrations.

Ensure that dust-handling systems (such as exhaust ducts, dust collectors, vessels, and processing equipment) are designed in a manner to prevent the escape of dust into the work area (i.e., there is no leakage from the equipment).

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection: Wear the following personal protective equipment:

Safety goggles

Hand protection: Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

Material: Natural Rubber

Remarks: Choose gloves to protect hands against chemicals depending on the concentration and quantity of the hazardous substance and specific to place of work. For special applications, we recommend clarifying the resistance to chemicals ofthe aforementioned protective gloves with the glove manufacturer.

Breakthrough time is not determined for the product. Change gloves often!

Skin and body protection: Select appropriate protective clothing based on chemical resistance data and an assessment of the local exposure potential.

Skin contact must be avoided by using impervious protective clothing (gloves, aprons, boots, etc).

Respiratory protection: Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust ventilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates that exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.
