First-aid measures

Eye Contact:

Remove any contact lenses.

Immediately flush eye with water thoroughly and continuously for at least 15 minutes.

Keep eye wide open while rinsing. Protect the unharmed eye (if applicable).

If there are signs of irritation or other symptoms seek medical attention.

Skin Contact:

Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.  Wash skin with plenty of soap and water.

If skin irritation or rash is occurs, seek medical attention.

Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Ensure all traces of the substance have been removed from other items eg boots.

Dispose of any items that cannot be sufficiently cleaned to prevent re-exposure.

Inhalation:

Move to fresh air.  If removing a casualty, ensure one's own safety whilst doing so.  Seek medical advice.

Ingestion:

Wash out your own mouth with water.  Do not wash out the mouth of an unconscious person.

Do not induce vomiting.  

Seek medical advice.

First-Aider (self protection):

Protect yourself and any casualty from further exposure.

It is important that anyone helping or attempting to rescue an affected person wear the appropriate respiratory protection and protective clothing.

Take off all contaminated clothing and shoes and clean before reuse.

Seek medical assistance - show the safety data sheet or label if possible.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media:

The substance itself is not flammable, therefore extinguishing media relating to the fire source and fire size should be considered.

Use water spray, water fog, fire fighting foam, dry powder extinguisher, carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguisher or dry sand.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Direct water jet.

Simultaneous use of foam and water on the same surface is to be avoided as water destroys the foam.

Specific Hazards during Fire-fighting:

If the substance is involved in a fire it may emit noxious or toxic fumes.

Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately.  This must not be discharged into drains.

Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Special Protective Equipment for Fire-fighters:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus in addition to standard fire fighting gear.

Accidental release measures

Personal Precautions:

Wear suitable personal protective equipment including respiratory protection during removal of spillages.

Do not breathe or create dust.

If outside do not approach from downwind.  Keep bystanders upwind and away from the danger point.

Mark out the contaminated area with signs to prevent access to unauthorised personnel.

Environmental Precautions:

Do not discharge into drains or rivers.  Contain the spillage using bunding.

Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Note that the substance has a low water solubility (3.2mg/l), it is very toxic to aquatic life and may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.

Methods for Clean Up:

Protect against dust formation. Use dry sand, earth or vermiculite if required to minimise formation of dust.

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Transfer substance to a closable, labelled salvage container then dispose according to local / national regulations.

Handling and storage

Precautions for Safe Handling:

Ensure handling is restricted to authorised persons.

Provide activity specific training to operators to minimise exposure risk.

Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.

Use only in well ventilated areas.  Do not handlie in a confined space.

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Avoid direct contact with the substance.

Avoid the formation or spread of dust in the air.

Wash skin/hands thoroughly after use.

Do not allow contaminated clothing out of the work place.

Wash/clean contaminated clothing and boots before re-use.

 

Conditions for Safe Storage:

Store in a cool, well ventilated area.

Keep containers tighly closed.

Keep away from oxidising agents.

Avoid exposure to heat or ignition sources.

Suitable storage containers:  Packaged into polyethylene bags stored inside drums.
