Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

Inhalation:Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest. If

not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs,

provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It may

be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth

resuscitation. Get medical attention if adverse health effects persist

or are severe. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get

medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen

tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. 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. Move exposed person to fresh air.

Keep person warm and at rest. If material has been swallowed and

the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to

drink. Stop if the exposed person feels sick as vomiting may be

dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by

medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low

so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention. Never

give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious,

place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately.

Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie,

belt or waistband.

Skin contact : Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated

clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. 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.

Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. 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: None known.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Hazards from the substance or mixture: No specific fire or explosion hazard.

Hazardous combustion products: Decomposition products may include the following materials:

carbon oxides,nitrogen oxides

Advice for firefighters

Special precautions for firefighters: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. This material is harmful to

aquatic organisms. Fire water contaminated with this material must

be contained and prevented from being discharged to any waterway,

sewer or drain.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters

Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and selfcontained

breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece

operated in positive pressure mode.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions,protective equipment and emergency procedures

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. Provide

adequate ventilation. Put on appropriate personal protective

equipment .

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). Harmful to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse

effects in the aquatic environment.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Small spill : Move containers from spill area. 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. Vacuum or sweep up

material and place in a designated, labelled waste container.

Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8).

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. Do not ingest.

Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Keep in the original

container or an approved alternative made from a compatible

material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain

product residue and can be hazardous.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

: Do not store above the following temperature: 50°C (122°F). 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 (see section 10) and food and

drink. 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.

Remarks : Vent waste air only via suitable separators or scrubbers. Avoid the

formation of dust, if necessary siphoning the product off locally. Fine

powder forms flammable and explosive mixtures in air. Avoid all

possible sources of ignition (spark or flame). Take precautionary

measures against electrostatic discharges.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters:

Recommended monitoring procedures : If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal,

workplace atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control

measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Reference should be made to European Standard EN

689 for methods for the assessment of exposure by inhalation to chemical agents and national guidance documents for methods for

the determination of hazardous substances.

Exposure controls

Risk management measures

Occupational exposure controls

Technical measures : If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure below any recommended or statutory limits.

Personal protection measures

Respiratory protection Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with

an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or

anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.

Recommended: In case of dust formation particle filter.

Hand protection : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical

products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. After contamination with product change the gloves immediately and

dispose of them according to relevant national and local regulations Recommended: (< 1 hour) Polyvinyl chloride - PVC or rubber gloves.

Eye protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid
