First-aid measures

If inhaled:

If breathed in, move person into fresh air.

If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of skin contact:

Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.

Wash off with soap and water.

If skin irritation persists, call a physician.

In case of eye contact:

Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 5 minutes.

Remove contact lenses.

If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.

If swallowed:

If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is con-scious).

Call a physician immediately.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: No information available.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: Treat symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:

Water mist

Dry powder

Foam

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Sand

Aqueous film forming foam (AFFF).

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water spray jet

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Specific hazards during fire-fighting: Risk of dust explosion.

Advice for firefighters

Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Firefighters must wear fire resistant personal protective equipment.

Further information: In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray.

Avoid dust formation.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:

Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

Avoid dust formation.

Avoid breathing dust.

Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.

Environmental precautions: Should not be released into the environment

Methods for cleaning up:

Large spills: Sweep up or vacuum with HEPA filter or via wet cleaning into suitable containers for disposal.

Pick up and arrange without creating dust. Keep in properly labelled containers.

Small spills: Moisten a towel, cover the spill, pick up the spill or use HEPA vacuum.

Large spills + Small spills: Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Treat recovered material as described in the section "Disposal considerations".

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling:

Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded before beginning transfer operations.

To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.

Use personal protective equipment as required

Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.

Avoid inhalation, ingestion and contact with skin and eyes.

Avoid formation of dust and aerosols

Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Avoid dust formation.

Hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Dust explosion class: St2

Requirements for storage areas and containers: To maintain product quality, do not store in heat or direct sunlight. Store in original container. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store at room temperature.

Recommended storage temperature: 15 - 25 °C

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures

Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control possible exposures. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep exposure levels below recommended exposure limits.

All personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment. Consult a Environment Health Safety expert if necessary.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields

Hand protection: Nitrile rubber. Impervious gloves Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, dura-tion of contact).

Skin and body protection: closed work clothing. chemical resistant apron, coat or coverall

Respiratory protection:

Engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures.

If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type as well as the corresponding protection factor will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present.

Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards.

Suitable mask with particle filter P3

Protective measures:

The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

The type of protective equipment must be selected based on the Environmental Health and Safety risk assessment. Consult a Environmental Health and Safety expert if necessary.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity: None reasonably foreseeable.

Chemical stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions.

Possibility of hazardous reactions: Risk of dust explosion.

Conditions to avoid: Heat, flames and sparks. To avoid thermal decomposition, do not overheat.

Incompatible materials, Materials to avoid: Oxidizing agents

Hazardous decomposition products: Carbon monoxide, HCl, Nitrogen

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Product: Must be incinerated in a suitable incineration plant holding a permit delivered by the competent authorities. In accordance with National, Federal, State and Local regulations.

Contaminated packaging: Empty containers should be taken to an approved waste handling site for recycling or disposal.
