First-aid measures

DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation -

If inhaled, move to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and/or oxygen. Get medical attention if symptoms occur and persist.

Skin contact -

Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if symptoms occur and persist.

Eye contact -

Immediately wash with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Continue for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if symptoms occur and persist.

Ingestion -

If swallowed, wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel. Get medical attention personnel.

MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED

To the best of our knowledge the toxicity of this substance has not been fully investigated, thus symptoms and effects are not fully known. May be harmful if swallowed, on skin or inhaled. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause damages to organs (kidney). Irritation effects to eyes cannot be excluded as being an oxalic salt.

INDICATION OF ANY IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT NEEDED

Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Fire-fighting measures

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA

Suitable extinguishing media -

Use water spray, foam, dry powder or carbon dioxide as appropriate for surrounding fire and materials.

Unsuitable extinguishing media -

No limitations given for this substance

SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE

Combustible, but not flammable. In case of fire toxic fumes of carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) may be emitted. In general, high concentrations of finely divided airborne organic particles can potentially explode if ignited. Measures should be taken to minimize dust generation and grounding of process equipment  and personnel.

ADVICE FOR FIREFIGHTERS

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Prevent fire-extinguishing water from contminating the watercourses.

Accidental release measures

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

If the product is released or spilt, take proper precautions to minimize exposure by using appropriate personal protective equipment (see section Exposure controls / Personal protection). Avoid raising dust. The area should be adequately ventilated.

ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS

Collect spillage and place in containers for waste and send for destruction. Avoid release to drains.

METHODS AND MATERIAL FOR CONTINMENT AND CLEANING UP

A small spill may be handled with water moistened disposable cloth and placed in container for chemical waste. A larger spill should be collected and placed in container for disposal. Use recommended personal protective equipment. Wash spill site with water after completed pick up.

Handling and storage

PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING

Avoid dust generation and inhalation of dust. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Ensure good ventilation. Use recommended personal protective equipment. A device for eyewash should be available. Use recommended personal protective equipment.

CONDITIONS FOR SAFE STORAGE, INCLUDING ANY INCOMPATIBILITIES

Store at regular indoor conditions and keep the container tightly closed. For recommended storage conditions, see product label.

Exposure controls / personal protection

CONTROL PARAMETERS

To the best of our knowledge, established occupational exposure limit value is not available for C5AP.

Recommended Occupational Exposure Limit Value:

Substance                            Value                                    Control Parameters                                         Comments

C5AP                                  100-1000 µg/m3                         LTEL 8h                                                      In-house limit

EXPOSURE CONTROL

Appropriate engineering controls -

Use appropriate controls (e.g. containment, local exhaust ventilation) as specified in a workplace risk assessment. Technical measures and appropriate operations should be given priority over the use of personal protecive equipment. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Personal protective equipment -

Eye face protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields. An emergency eyewash station should be available.

Skin protection: Handle with gloves. The selected gloves must comply with the specifications in EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374 or applicable federal, state and national legislation.

Protective clothing: Use impervious, disposable clothing to prevent skin contact. The type should be selected according to concentration, quantities and duration of handling at the specific workplace.

Respiratory protection: Required when dusts are generated. Choice of respiratory protection should be appropriate to the task and the level of existing engineering controls. Use air-purifying respirator with combination filters. In laboratories, use fume hood or dust control hood.

Environmental exposure controls: Do not release into drains or watercourses.

Stability and reactivity

REACTIVITY

No known reactivity hazards under normal conditions.

CHEMICAL STABILITY

The substance is chemically stable at standard room temperature conditions, generally 15 to 25C.

POSSIBLITITY OF HAZARDOUS REACTIONS AND CONDITIONS TO AVOID

None known

INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS

Strong oxidants; strong acids and bases

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS

Carbon oxides (COx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) may be formed.

Disposal considerations

WASTE TREATMENT METHODS

Dispose waste at authorized plant, in accordance with Directive 2008/98/EC and/or applicable federal, state, national or local legislation.
