Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Protection of first-aiders: First-aid providers must NOT enter the hazardous area or attempt rescue

without putting on appropriate personal protective equipment. Take appropriate steps to avoid every contact of the material. Instantly remove  clothing soiled by the material.  Remove breathing apparate only after all soiled clothing has been comletely removed. In case of irregular breathing or respiratory arrest provide artificial respiration.

Inhalation: Instantly remove clothing soiled by the material. Remove breathing apparate only after all soiled clothing has been completely removed. In case of

irregular breathing or respiratory arrest provide artificial respiration.Move to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, apply artificial respiration. Keep patient warm. If rapid recovery does not occur, seek medical attantion.  Seek immediate medical advice in every cases.

Skin contact:  Instanly wash affected skin with soap and planty of water. Seek immediate medical advice.

Eye contact:  DO NOT DELAY. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. If persistant irritation occurs, seek medical attantion.

Ignestion: DO NOT DELAY. Do not induce vomiting.  Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. SEEK MEDICAL ATTANTION IMMEDIATELY.

Note to physician: Treat symptomatically.

Most important symptomes and effects, both acut and delayed:  Damages to the eyes. Nausea, Headache, Vomiting, . Causes severe corneal edema. Temporary blindness has been reported. Symptomes may be delayed.  

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media: Suitable extinguishing media For small fires use media such as „alcohol” foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. For large fires apply water from as far as possible.

Special hazards arising from the sbstance and mixture: Carbon oxides and nitrogen oxides. Possible HCN!!!!

Precautions for fire fighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. (by EU

standard: EN469-including: helmets, protective boots and gloves)

Further informations: Use water spray to cool unopened containars! Collect separetely contaminated extinguishing water, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent system.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Do not breathe vapour. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotectived persons away. Ensure adequate ventillation. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas. Keep away all of ignition sources!!

Enviromental precautions: Prevent contamination of soil and water. If materials enters drains, it should be separated the contaminated and pumped out into an open vessel. Emergency services may be called to assist in this operation.

Methodes and materials for containment and cleaning up: Do not flush away residues with water. Contain spillage and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or wet-brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see Section 13).

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling: When using do not eat, drink or smoke! Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breath vapour. Prevent spills and avoid all operations which contaminate clothing and work areas. Ensure good ventillation/exhausting at the workplace. Avoid generation of vapours/aerosols! Observe label preacutions!

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Segregate from acids and strong oxidants! Keep away from humidity and water!! Keep ignition sources away - don’t smoke!!! Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventillated place. It may store at ambient temperature. Containers which are opened must be carefully inertized by Nitrogen then resealed and kept it upright to prevent leakage!

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters: Occupational exposure limits are not available. Apply it closed system!!!! Need a suitable ventillation!!!!  

Exposure controls:

-Eye/face protection:  Tightly fitting safely goggles.Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

-Skin protection: Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove’s outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose the contaminated gloves after usein accordance with applicable laws.  Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

-Body protection: Complete suit protecting against chemicals. Flame raterdant antistatic protective clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

-Respiratory protection:  Where risk assessment shows air purifying respirators are appropriate use a fullface respirator with multi purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as EN 140.
