Further information:In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray.

Avoid dust formation.

Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions:Avoid dust formation.

Avoid breathing dust.

Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.

6.2 Environmental precautions

Environmental precautions:Should not be released into the environment.

6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up:Large spills: Sweep up or vacuum with HEPA filter or via wet cleaning into suitable containers for disposal.

Pick up and arrange without creating dust. Keep in properly labelled containers.

Small spills: Moisten a towel, cover the spill, pick up the spill or use HEPA vacuum.

Large spills + Small spills: Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Treat recovered material as described in the sec-tion "Disposal considerations".

6.4 Reference to other sections

Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8., For disposal considerations see section 13.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures

All personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment. Consult a Environment Health Safety expert if necessary.

Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control possible exposures. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep exposure levels below recommended exposure limits.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection:Tightly fitting safety goggles

Hand protection    Material:Nitrile rubber

Remarks:Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact). Impervious gloves

Skin and body protection:       closed work clothing

disposable one-piece overall

Respiratory protection:       Engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures.

If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type as well as the corresponding protection factor will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present.

Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards.

Suitable mask with particle filter P3

Protective measures:The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
