Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: If affected, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen and obtain immediate medical attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of clean water for an
extended time, not less than fifteen minutes. If irritation
develops, obtain medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Apply a generous amount of
waterless hand cleaner to affected areas. Rub briskly onto
the skin, on and around the affected area. Remove the
mixture of cleaner product with paper towels or clean dry
rags. Repeat the entire procedure, then wash the skin with a
mild soap, rinsing with warm water. If irritation develops,
obtain medical attention.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Use dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide. Water should be
used to keep fire-exposed containers cool. If a leak or
spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the
vapours (from the solvent in which the substance is
supplied).
Never direct a hose stream directly onto a burning
flammable/combustible liquid.
Product arising from burning: The substance gives off hazardous gases from combustion,
burning or decomposition. Products of combustion or
decomposition have not been determined but will include
oxides of carbon and nitrogen and they must be considered
toxic.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing
apparatus must be worn with a full facepiece and operated in
a positive pressure-demand mode (or other positive pressure
mode). Personnel without suitable respiratory protection
must leave the area to prevent significant exposure to
hazardous gases from combustion, burning or decomposition.
In an enclosed or poorly ventilated area, wear self
contained breathing apparatus during clean up immediately
after a fire as during the attack phase of firefighting
operations.
Fight the fire from a safe distance or protected location.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Evacuate personnel from immediate vicinity and eliminate
ignition sources.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment conforming to
the relevant national or international standards, as
mentioned in section 2.3.10.
Contain spill using proper dyking and solid adsorbents. If
spilled in an enclosed area, ventilate. Absorb spill residue
and small spills of solutions with an inert absorbent (eg.
sand or soil). Carefully transfer the spillage to waste
containers 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.
Dispose of waste material in accordance with local
regulations by incineration. Do not flush liquid into public
sewer, water systems or surface waters.
Handling and storage
Handling: The substance should be stored, handled and used under
conditions of good industrial hygiene and in conformity with
any local regulations in order to avoid exposure.
Engineering controls are necessary to reduce exposure to the
substance. In particular to prevent routine inhalation of
vapours, mists or skin contact.
When exposure cannot be prevented or adequately controlled
appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.
This should include chemical resistant (impervious) gloves
and eye protection (chemical goggles or goggles and an
8-inch (minimum) full face shield where spilling or
splashing may occur), and other impervious clothing, as
necessary, where prolonged or repeated contact cannot be
avoided.
When handling the neat substance a dust mask is recommended.
When handling preparations containing the substance
respiratory protection should be worn.(eg. an organic vapour
respirator, a full face air purifying respirator for organic
vapours, or a self-contained breathing apparatus).
Bond and ground all containers when transferring chemical.
Take precautions to prevent static discharge/spark to
prevent ignition of vapours.
Storage: Store in tightly closed, properly labelled containers in a
cool, well ventilated area, away from all ignition sources
and out of direct sunlight.
Do not cut, puncture or weld on or near the container. Keep
container away from heat, sparks and open flames of any
sort.
Keep containers tightly closed when not in use and upright
to prevent leakage.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Standard IMO Type 1 ISO tanks
Dimensions: 20 ft x 8 ft x 8.5 ft
Shell materials: stainless steel AISI 316, 316L or 316 Ti
Capacity: 14,500 to 26,000 litres

Exposure controls / personal protection
Stability and reactivity
Danger other than fire: Protect product from flames of any kind. Maintain proper
clearance when using heat devices, etc.
Chemical reaction with water: None reported.
Dust explosion: The substance is a granular solid so dust explsion is
unlikely. In addition, the substance is always supplied in
the EU dissolved in solvent.
Dust explosion determined by test: N
Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery from minor spillages or accidental discharge is not
economically or 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 a
skin sensitiser. It is also harmful by prolonged oral
exposure. No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise
these hazardous health effects.
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 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 could be formed.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not normally be discharged directly to
the sewage system or the aqueous environment. However,
adverse effects on sewage treatment systems would be
unlikely.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Not applicable as 100% of the substance is used by industry.
