1,3,5-tris[[4-tert-butyl-3-hydroxy-2,6-xylyl]methyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

In case of inhalation

- Move to fresh air.

- Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.

In case of skin contact

- Use appropriate protective equipment when treating a contaminated person.

In case of eye contact

- Rinse with running water whilst keeping the eyes wide open.

In case of ingestion

- Do NOT induce vomiting.

- Rinse mouth with water.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Effects

- No hazards to be specially mentioned.

- Inhalation of dust may cause shortness of breath, tightness of the chest, a sore throat and cough.

- Risk of nose bleeding

- Irritating to mucous membranes

Repeated or prolonged exposure

- Contact with dust can cause mechanical irritation or drying of the skin.

- Dust contact with the eyes can lead to mechanical irritation.

- Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.

- Mechanical irritation from the particulates generated by the product.

Symptoms

- At high concentrations:

- slight irritation

- Cough

- Redness

- Redness of the conjunctiva

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Notes to physician

- When symptoms persist or in all cases of doubt seek medical advice

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media

- Water spray

- Foam

- Carbon dioxide (CO2)

- Multi-purpose powders

Unsuitable extinguishing media

- High volume water jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

- Risk of dust explosion.

- Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard.

- Under fire conditions:

- Will burn

- On combustion, toxic gases are released.

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters

- In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

- Personal protective equipment comprising: suitable protective gloves, safety goggles and protective clothing

- For further information refer to section 8 "Exposure controls/personal protection".

Specific fire fighting methods

- Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Further information

- Standard procedure for chemical fires.

- Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains.

- Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

- Where exposure level is not known, wear approved, positive pressure, self-contained respirator.

- Where exposure level is known, wear approved respirator suitable for level of exposure.

- For further information refer to section 8 "Exposure controls/personal protection".

Environmental precautions

- Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

- Contain the spilled material by bunding.

- Do not let product enter drains.

- Do not allow uncontrolled discharge of product into the environment.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

- Stop leak if safe to do so.

- Avoid dust formation.

- Dust deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration.

- Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.

- Keep in properly labelled containers.

- Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

- After cleaning, flush away traces with water.

- Recover the cleaning water for subsequent disposal.

- Decontaminate tools, equipment and personal protective equipment in a segregated area.

- Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.

- Never return spills in original containers for re-use.
