First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove the person from exposed area to fresh air area

immediately. Should pyrolysis smokes be inhaled

performed artificial respiration id necessary or provide

oxigene. Seek for medical assistance.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Wash immediately with large amounts of water or normal

saline; keep the eyelid open with the finger.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothes and shoes immediately. Wash

affected area with soap or mild detergent and large amount

of water until no evidence of chemical remains (15-20

minutes).

Emergency measure - Ingestion: If swallowed  wash out mouth with water provided person is

conscious.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, CO2, foam, dry powders

Product arising from burning: Ammonia, bromidric acid, nitrogenated compounds

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Self-contained breathing apparatus

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face

protection (dust mask included).

Soak up with inert absorbent material, and

clean with plenty of water.

Send to the storage waiting for disposal procedures.

Handling and storage

Handling: Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face

protection (dust musk included). Avoid any contact also by

inhalation route.

Storage: Store in a cool, dark and well ventilated place. Keep

container tightly closed, properly labelled amd avoid light.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance is not use as raw material but only inglobated

as additive in the flame retarded polymer. Therefore no

recovery of the substance as such is expected.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No special neutralisation procedures are required.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: All waste streams including residual from the cleaning

procedure of the empty container, residuals from cleaning

the reactor, are collected, stored and then sent to a

qualified external company for disposal. All material will

be incinerated.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The licensed company will incinerate all wastes containing

MHB or its residuals as well as all plastic drums and bags

used to transport/store it.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: none

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: No sales is expected for the pubblic at large.

Possible residuals during production are completely recycled

in the manufacturing process itself.
