First-aid measures

Inhalation :
Move affected person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. Consult immediately a doctor in case of pregnancy or nursing. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. Get medical advice/attention. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately.

Ingestion :
Wash out mouth with water. Keep person warm and at rest. Consult immediately a doctor in case of pregnancy or nursing. Seek medical attention.

Skin contact :
Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Consult immediately a doctor in case of pregnancy or nursing. Seek medical attention.

Contact with eyes :
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Seek medical attention.

Protection of first-aiders :
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (dust mask P3 - safety glasses - gloves). No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Treat symptomatically

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media : Use dry chemical or CO2

Hazards from the substance or mixture : Fine dust clouds may form explosive mixtures with air. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.

Hazardous combustion products : Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
nitrogen oxides
sulfur oxides
halogenated compounds

Advice for firefighters
Special precautions for fire-fighters : Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters : Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures :
Protection of fire-fighters : Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through spilt material. Shut off all ignition sources. Avoid breathing dust. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate.
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8 of SDS).

Environmental precautions
Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up - Spill :
Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Use a tool to scoop up solid or absorbed material and place into appropriate labelled waste container

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling :
Protective measures : Must be handled preferentially under strictly containment. Avoid contact during pregnancy or while nursing. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Avoid breathing dust. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate.

Advice on general occupational hygiene : Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities :

Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials and food and drink. Store locked up. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.
