Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Stop exposition by moving to fresh air.
Support breathing if respiratory arrest occurs.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse with plenty of water or physiological solution for at
least 15-20 minutes.
Emergency measure - Skin: Rinse with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothes.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Induce vomiting only in case of awarness.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Every extinguishing agent is suitable.
Product arising from burning: The combustion of the substance produces toxic gases as
CO2,CO, NOx, and SOx and methyl mercaptane.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: During intervention fire officers must wear self-contained
breathing apparatus.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: In the case of accidental scattering collect the powder
without rising powder. Personnel must wear protective
overalls, P3 type masks, gloves and goggles.
Avoid the powder to reach the waste water system.
Keep the substance in suitable containers.
For the reclamation of contaminated surface use a diluted
chloridric acid solution without any dispersion.
Handling and storage
Handling: The substance should be handled in closed systems or in
workplaces provided with effective suction systems and
adequate general ventilation.
If exposure can't be avoided workers must wear disposable
dust resistant overalls, nitrile gloves, safety goggles and
masks with organic vapours filters and / or P3 type filters.
Storage: The substance must be kept closed containers away from heat
and light.
Do not store near to strongly oxidizing materials.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Use internal polyethylene bags contained in external
aluminium ones.
For large quantities use polyethylene bags contained in
kraft type drums.

Special provisions / remarks
- Remarks:
- Transport: The substance is not classied as dangerous according to
international dangerous goods transport codes.
There aren't particular concerns about internal transport
safety, as the hazard related to acute exposure is very low
and the substance is an inert powder.
The only applicable recommendation is the use of well closed
resistant containers.
SpecialProvisionsopen allclose all
Exposure controls / personal protection
Stability and reactivity
Dust explosion: Data about lower explosition limit in air and minimum
ignition energy of the powder are not know.
Being an organic powder the substance has to be regarded as
a potential inflammable powder.
Therefore in those cases in which the formation of a mixture
of the powder with air is a consequence of the operational
condition, it's necessary to carry out all the measures for
the prevention of ignition: control of static charging
phenomena, fire-works regulation and so on.
Dust explosion determined by test: N
