Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.
Skin: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes and shoes.
Eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting.. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Foam, Dry chemical, Water, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons: Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, its combustion products, or released gases: Under conditions giving incomplete combustion, hazardous gases produced may consist of carbon monoxide
carbon dioxide (CO2)
nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Sulfur oxides (SOx)
Potential dust explosion hazard
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
Environmental precautions: Dike and collect water used to fight fire.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Use adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
Environmental precautions: Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up: Contain spillage, pick up with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and transfer to a container
for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13). Use mechanical handling equipment
Additional information: Consult trained personnel. Consider the information for "Personal Protection" in chapter 8 of this Safety Data Sheet.
Handling and storage
HANDLING
Hygiene measures: When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapours/dust. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Incompatible products: oxidizing agents
Protection - fire and explosion: Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge. Avoid dust formation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Potential dust explosion hazard.
Reduce the release of the substance or mixture to the environment: See Section 8: Environmental exposure controls
Temperature class: T3
Dust Explosion Group: ST1
STORAGE
Material storage: Store in a cool/low-temperature, well-ventilated, dry place away from heat and ignition sources. Keep away from direct sunlight.
Incompatible products: oxidizing agents
Technical measures/Storage conditions: Keep tightly closed in a dry and cool place.
German storage class: 11: Combustible solids.
