Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation:
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
Get medical attention if symptoms occur. In case of inhalation of decomposition
products in a fire, symptoms may be delayed. The exposed person may need to be
kept under medical surveillance for 48 hours.
Ingestion:
Wash out mouth with water. Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a
position comfortable for breathing. If material has been swallowed and the exposed
person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Get medical attention if symptoms
occur.
Skin contact:
Wash skin immediately with plenty of water and soap. Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation occurs. Wash clothing before
reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
Eye contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention if irritation
occurs.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media:
Suitable extinguishing media: In case of fire, use water spray (fog), foam, dry chemical or CO2.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use water jet.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Hazards from the substance or mixture: Fine dust clouds may form explosive mixtures with air.
Hazardous thermal decomposition products: Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
nitrogen oxides
Advice for firefighters:
Special protective actions for fire-fighters: Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. 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. Clothing for fire-fighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves)
conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for
chemical incidents.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
For non-emergency personnel: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk
through spilt material. Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or flames in
hazard area. Avoid breathing dust. Put on appropriate personal protective
equipment.
For emergency responders: If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any
information in Section 8 of the safety data sheet on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the
information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions:
Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Small spill: Move containers from spill area. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof
equipment. Vacuum or sweep up material and place in a designated, labelled waste
container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large spill: Move containers from spill area. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses,
basements or confined areas. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.
Approach the release from upwind. Vacuum or sweep up material and place in a
designated, labelled waste container. Avoid creating dusty conditions and prevent
wind dispersal. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Reference to other sections:
See Section 1 of the safety data sheet for emergency contact information.
See Section 8 of the safety data sheet for information on appropriate personal protective equipment.
See Section 13 of the safety data sheet for additional waste treatment information.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Protective measures: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Avoid breathing
dust. Avoid the creation of dust when handling and avoid all possible sources of
ignition (spark or flame). Prevent dust accumulation. Use only with adequate
ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Electrical
equipment and lighting should be protected to appropriate standards to prevent dust
coming into contact with hot surfaces, sparks or other ignition sources. Take
precautionary measures against electrostatic discharges. To avoid fire or explosion,
dissipate static electricity during transfer by earthing and bonding containers and
equipment before transferring material.
Advice on general occupational hygiene: Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is
handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating,
drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment
before entering eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area.
Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and wellventilated
area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and
drink. Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep
container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been
opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store
in unlabelled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination.
7.3 Specific end use(s):
According to chapters 9 and 10 of the CSR/extended safety data sheet.
