Registration Dossier

Diss Factsheets

Administrative data

First-aid measures

The manufacturing/use of the registered substance fulfils strictly controlled conditions. Therefore, no exposure of man or the environment is expected. In the case of accidental exposure, the following measures should be taken (as reported by the Safety Data Sheet):
Eye contact
- rinse immediately with tap water for 10 minutes - open eyelids forcibly
- consult a physician
Skin contact
- remove immediately contaminated clothes, wash affected skin with water and soap - do not use any solvents
Inhalation
- remove the casualty to fresh air and keep him/her calm
- in the event of symptoms get medical treatment
Note to physician
- treat symptomatically

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media
- water spray jet, dry powder, foam, carbon dioxide
Specific hazards
- formation of toxic and corrosive combustion gases (nitrogen oxides (NOx)) possible
- consider dust explosion hazard
Protection of fire-fighters
- precipitate gases/vapours/mists with water spray
Special method of fire-fighting
- cool endangered containers with water spray

Accidental release measures

The manufacturing/use of the registered substance fulfils strictly controlled conditions. Therefore, no exposure of man or the environment is expected. In the case of accidental exposure, the following measures should be taken (as reported by the Safety Data Sheet):
Environmental protection
- do not allow to enter drains or waterways
Methods for cleaning up
- collect solids (avoid dust formation) and hand over to waste removal

Handling and storage

Handling

Technical measures
- processing in closed systems, if possible superposed by inert gas (e.g. nitrogen)
- local exhaust ventilation necessary
- take precautionary measures against electrostatic charging
- avoid dust formation; very high dust explosion hazard
Suitable materials
- steel, stainless steel, glass, enamel, polyethylene

Storage

Storage conditions
- room temperature
Packaging materials
- tightly closing; material: steel, stainless steel

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering Measures

Technical measures
- processing in closed systems, if possible superposed by inert gas (e.g. nitrogen)
- local exhaust ventilation necessary
- take precautionary measures against electrostatic charging
- avoid dust formation; very high dust explosion hazard
Suitable materials
- steel, stainless steel, glass, enamel, polyethylene

Monitoring

Analytics
- sampling on glass fibre filter and gravimetric or chemical determination
Note
- Health Hazard Category (HHC): Category 2, meaning exposures must be controlled to below 10 mcg/m3.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection
- in case of open handling or accidental release: particle mask or respirator with independent air supply
Hand protection
- protective gloves (eg made of neoprene, nitrile or butyl rubber)
Eye protection
- safety glasses

Stability and reactivity

Stability
- stable under normal conditions
Materials to avoid
- strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, strong bases
Hazardous decompositionproducts
- oxides of nitrogen
Note
- hydrolytically stable between pH 4 and 9

Disposal considerations

Waste from residues
- incinerate in qualified installation with flue gas scrubbing
- observe local/national regulations regarding waste disposal
Contaminated packaging
- empty containers must be triple rinsed prior to disposal, recycling or reuse.
