First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air and seek medical attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.

Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with water.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, dry chemical and carbon dioxide are suitable.

Product arising from burning: Products of combustion may contain oxides of carbon and

nitrogen together with some soot.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: A self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing

are recommended.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Avoid dust formation, wear suitable protective equipment

(cf. 2.3.1). Sweep up material for disposal by incineration.

For the slurry usually handled, absorb spill with

vermiculite or other inert material before collecting for

disposal.

Handling and storage

Handling: Follow good industrial hygiene procedures; if exposure

cannot be avoided, wear suitable gloves and eye/face

protection. Avoid exposing the substance to temperatures

greater than 195 deg C. Avoid dust formation.

Storage: Store under appropriate conditions, away from strong

oxidants.

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery for recycling from either spills or articles is not

practical.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: None known except dilution with water and mixing with inert

substance.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Incineration at 1000 deg C at an authorised facility fitted

with flue gas scrubbing to remove nitrogen oxides is

recommended.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not recommended.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance will only enter the public domain in the form

of articles which may be disposed of with normal domestic

waste.
