Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air and avoid further exposure. In case of a
persistent coughing or breathing trouble, seek medical
attention.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse thouroughly with water for min. 15 min. If persistent
irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin with water.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Give plenty of water to drink. Obtain medical attention if
unconscious.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Water, carbon dioxide, alcohol resistent foam, dry chemical.
Product arising from burning: Water, carbon dioxide, alkanes and alkenes.
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: Fresh air equipment, protection gloves and glasses.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: The material is collected, using a hoover, and send for
disposal at the local authorities in a closed container.
Handling and storage
Handling: When handling the material wear protection glasses, gloves
and breathing apparatus.
Ethanol can with time penetrate the gloves which is why it
is important often to change gloves.
Ignition sources or open fire is not allowed in the area
where the material is being used.
Storage: Store away from ignition sources and open fire.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Plastic barrels (drums) of 50 kg.

Dust explosion determined by test: N
Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Category 611: "Recovery by mechanical collection".
After use the compound is send back to FeF Chemicals A/S for
regeneration.
The regeneration is effected through the following process:
1) The solvents are eliminated below nitrogen at a
temperature of 150 degrees
2) The temperature is increased to 600 degrees below
nitrogen
3) At this temperature, the main part of the organic
components are disposed of and the product is oxydised with
air at 700 degrees.
4) The product is passed through a sieve
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Category 633: "Neutralisation by water treatment".
The hazardous effect of ethanol used in the marketed
preparation can be neutralised by treatment of water.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Incineration
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Category 662: "Incinerate, high temperature-long burn".
Destruction of the material will be by incineration. The
organic part will be released as CO/CO2 and the remaining
part as SiO2.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not relevant
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not relevant, as the substance is not intended for the
general public.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not relevant, as the substance is not intended for the
general public.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not relevant, as the substance is not intended for the
general public.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not relevant, as the substance is not intended for the
general public.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Not relevant, as the substance is not intended for the
general public.
