First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air. Symptomatic treatment.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. If

irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected areas with

soap and water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray/fog, foam, dry powder or carbon dioxide may be

used.

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

nitrogen together with some soot and, possibly, some

hydrogen cyanide.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and a self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Wear suitable protective clothing, see 2.3.1. Evacuate

personnel from the immediate vicinity. Remove all sources of

ignition and take precautions against static discharges.

Ventilate the area thoroughly. Avoid raising dust. Absorb

spillages with a suitable inert material (eg. sand or soil).

Carefully transfer the spillage to sealable containers for

disposal. Avoid contamination of soil and water. Wash/mop

spill site thoroughly with water.

Handling and storage

Handling: The substance should be handled under conditions of good

industrial hygiene. Engineering controls such as local

exhaust ventilation are used to reduce exposure to the

substance. An anti-static overall (BS EN368), safety

footwear, suitable gloves (prEN374) and eye protection

(BS2092 or prEN166) should be worn. Respiratory protective

equipment may be used, e.g. a dust mask conforming to

EN149FFP1 or a respirator conforming to EN405FFA1.

Storage: Store in sealed containers below 10 deg C.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: The substance is packaged in 60 litre sealed, static

Dust explosion determined by test: Y

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery from minor spillages or accidental discharge may be

possible.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: None known for skin sensitisation hazard. Dust explosion

hazard is neutralised by supplying as a wet filter-cake

preparation.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: The substance or any contaminated waste may be disposed of

by landfill by a licensed waste contractor as special waste.

(A650)

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance may be disposed of at a licensed incinerator

in accordance with local regulations. Waste gases should be

scrubbed to remove oxides of nitrogen. (A661)

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

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance will not enter the public domain.
