Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Seek medical advice. If breathing has stopped or is labored, give assisted respirations. Supplemental oxygen may be indicated. If the heart has stopped, trained personnel should begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately.
Eye contact:
Rinse immediately with plenty of water also under the eyelids for at least 20 minutes. Remove contact lenses.
Skin contact:
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes. Wash off with soap and water. Immediately remove contaminated clothing, and any extraneous chemical, if possible to do so without delay. Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Prevent aspiration of vomit. Turn victim's head to the side.
Inhalation:
Move to fresh air.
Fire-fighting measures
Fire fighting equipment must be available.
Suitable extinguishing media:
Water (spray - not splash)
Dry extinguishing powder
Alcohol resistant foam
Carbon dioxide
Instructions:
If possible, take container out of dangerous zone.
Shut off sources of ignition.
Special protective equipment:
In the case of a fire hazardous substances can be released.
Nitrous gases (nitric oxides)
Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and special tightly sealed suit.
Accidental release measures
Pick up without creating dust.
Afterwards ventilate area and wash spill site.
Endangerment of watert:
Low hazard to waters. Inform the responsible authorities when very large quantities get into water, drainage, sewer, or the ground.
Handling and storage
Workplace:
Provision of good ventilation in the working area.
Washing facility at the workplace required.
Equipment:
Use closed apparatus if possible.
If release of the substance cannot be prevented, then it should be suctioned off at the point of exit.
Consider emission limit values, a purification of waste gases if necessary.
Label containers and pipelines clearly.
Advice on safer handling:
Take care to keep workplace clean and dry.
Do not leave container open.
Sufficient ventilation must be guaranteed for refilling, transfer, or open use.
Avoid spillage.
Fill only into labelled container.
Avoid any contact when handling the substance.
Cleaning and maintenance:
Use protective equipment while cleaning if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Dust formation that cannot be avoided must be collected regularly.
Use a tested industrial vacuum cleaner or suction device.
Do not raise dust while cleaning.
Use of a blower for cleaning is not permitted.
Only conduct maintenance and other work on or in the vessel or closed spaces after obtaining written permission.
TECHNICAL MEASURES - STORAGE
Storage:
Do not use any food containers - risk of mistake.
Containers have to be labelled clearly and permanently.
Store in the original container as much as possible.
Keep container tightly closed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place.
Protect from moisture.
Substance is hygroscopic.
Conditions of collocated storage:
Storage class 10 - 13 (Other liquids and solids)
Only substances of the same storage class should be stored together.
Collocated storage with the following substances is prohibited:
- Pharmaceuticals, foods, and animal feeds including additives.
- Infectious, radioactive und explosive substances.
- Strongly oxidizing substances of storage class 5.1A.
Under certain conditions the collocated storage with the following substances is permitted (For more details see TRGS 510):
- Gases.
- Flammable liquids of storage class 3.
- Other explosive substances of storage class 4.1A.
- Pyrophoric substances.
- Substances liberating flammable gases in contact with water.
- Oxidizing substances of storage class 5.1B.
- Ammonium nitrate and preparations containing ammonium nitrate.
- Organic peroxides and self reactive substances.
- Combustible and non combustible acutely toxic substances of storage classes 6.1A and 6.1B.
The substance should not be stored with substances with which hazardous chemical reactions are possible.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Pick up without creating dust.
Afterwards ventilate area and wash spill site.
In the case of a fire hazardous substances can be released.
Nitrous gases (nitric oxides)
Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and special tightly sealed suit.
Endangerment of water:
Low hazard to waters. Inform the responsible authorities when very large quantities get into water, drainage, sewer, or the ground.

Disposal considerations
If there is no way of recycling it must be disposed of in compliance with the respective national and local regulations.
Collection of small amounts of substance:
Collect in container for solid organic residues.
Collection vessels must be clearly labelled with a systematic description of their contents. Store the vessels in a well-ventilated location. Entrust them to the appropriate authorities for disposal.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
