1-(3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-cyclohexanecarbonitrile

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Move exposed person to fresh air. Seek medical attention in

case of known or possible overexposure to this material or

with symptoms including chest pain, difficulty breathing,

loss of consciousness or other adverse effects which may be

delayed.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash eyes thoroughly with clean water for at least 15

minutes. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation

occurs.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and launder before re-use.

Rinse affected area with clean water for at least 15

minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs.

Do not use a chemical neutraliser.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Carbon dioxide, dry foam and water spray.

Product arising from burning: The substance is combustible and will burn if involved in a

fire, evolving noxious fumes (eg carbon and nitrogen

oxides).

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to

the relevant national or international standards, as

mentioned in section 2.3.10.

Absorb spillages of solutions with a suitable inert material

(eg. sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste

containers, or use a sealed industrial vacuum machine.

Containers filled with waste material must be labelled in

the same way as the original substance containers.

Clean the spillage area with detergent and water. Care must

be taken not to discharge washings to the drain.

Dispose of waste material in accordance with local

regulations by incineration.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance must be stored, handled and used under

conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with

any local regulations in order to avoid exposure by skin and

oral contact and inhalation.

Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the

substance.

When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled

appropriate personal protective equipment must be worn.

Such protective equipment must conform to the appropriate

international or national standards as follows;

Chemical protective gloves to Standard prEN374

Chemical protective clothing to Standard EN368

Eye protection to Standard prEN166.

Furthermore, when respiratory protective equipment has to be

used, it must be capable of adequately controlling exposure,

be suitable for the purpose, and conform to the appropriate

international or national standards, such as a dust mask

conforming to EN149 FFP1.

These measures should be regarded as a minimum.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated room and away from

sources of ignition.

Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: 90L fibre drums lined with polyethylene, containing two 25

kg packs of material per drum.  The drums are securely

fastened with a clip-ring fastner.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from

minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically

nor technically feasible, and such waste material will be

disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be

possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated

material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is

harmful if swallowed, a skin sensitizer, may cause serious

damage by prolonged exposure if swallowed and dangerous to

the aquatic environment .

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise these

hazardous properties.

The dust hazard will be minimised by good engineering

controls and local ventilation.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous environmental properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with

inert material (eg. sand or soil) should not normally be

disposed of by landfill.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning

under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment

processor in accordance with local regulations. Stack gases

should be scrubbed, because noxious fumes (eg. carbon and

nitrogen oxides) could be formed.

Method A: 663.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

However, the substance is not considered to be toxic to

sewage micro-organisms.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: None.
