First-aid measures

4.1 Description of first aid measures

General advice:

Helpers must protect themselves and bring victims out of hazard area. Seek medical advice in case of symptoms caused by eye or skin contact, inhalation or swallowing.

If inhaled:

Move to fresh air.

In case of skin contact:

Change contaminated clothing.

Wash off with plenty of water and soap.

In case of eye contact:

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water, also under the eyelids.

If swallowed:

Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water.

4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms:

To the best of our knowledge, experiences about acute systemic health effects in human beings are not available.

5.3 Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters:

In the case of fire, wear respiratory protective equipment in-dependent of surrounding air and chemical protective suit.

Further information:

With large-scale fire, violent decomposition or even explosion is possible.

Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions:

Wear personal protective equipment; see section 8.

Avoid formation of dust. Ensure sufficient ventilation.

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Assure sufficient ventilation.

Avoid dust formation.

Avoid contact with hot surfaces

6.2 Environmental precautions

Environmental precautions:

Product or extinguishing water with product must not be al-lowed to enter soil, sewers or natural bodies of water.

6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up:

Use mechanical handling equipment.

Protect from spark formation.

Avoid dust formation.

Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

After cleaning, flush away traces with water.

6.4 Reference to other sections

For disposal considerations see section 13.

Handling and storage

7.1 Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling:

Provide sufficient ventilation and exhaust at the workplace.

Handle and open container with care.

Prevent dust formation.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:

Avoid formation of air-dust mixtures and keep away from ignition sources (sparks, flames, open flame) to prevent dust ex-plosions. Keep away from heat. Avoid impact and friction.

Hygiene measures:

Do not breathe dust. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Do not eat, drink or smoke while working. Wash hands, and/or face before breaks and when workday is finished. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.

7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Requirements for storage areas and containers:

Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place.

Advice on common storage:

Keep away from oxidizing agents, strongly alkaline and strong-ly acid materials in order to avoid exothermic reactions.

Storage class (TRGS 510):1, Explosive hazardous materials

Dampness:

Keep in a dry place.

Further information on storage stability:

Keep away from heat.

Packaging material:

Unsuitable material: Metal
