Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
SKIN CONTACT:
- Remove contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash with soap or mild detergent and large amounts of water until no evidence of chemical remains.
- Seek medical attention if needed.
EYE CONTACT:
- Wash eyes immediately with large amounts of water or normal saline, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of chemical
remains (at least 15-20 minutes).
- Obtain medical attention immediately.
INHALATION:
- Remove from exposure area immediately. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Seek medical attention if needed.
ANTIDOTES:
- No specific antidote. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Fire-fighting measures
FIRE CONTROL
- Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or regular foam
- For larger fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD:
- Slight fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame.
- Dust-air mixtures may ignite or explode.
FIRE-FIGHTING:
- Move container from fire area if possible without risk. Do not scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Dike fire-control water for
later disposal (1993 Emergency Response Guidebook. RSPA P 5800.6, Guide Page 31).
- Use agents suitable for type of surrounding fire. Avoid breathing hazardous vapours, keep upwind.
Accidental release measures
OCCUPATIONAL SPILL:
- Sweep up and place in suitable containers for disposal.
- Do not flush spilled material into sewer.
Handling and storage
HANDLING:
- Provide local exhaust or general dilution ventilation system.
STORAGE:
- Observe all appropriate regulations when storing this substance.

Exposure controls / personal protection
EXPOSURE CONTROLS:
- No permissible exposure limits established by Danisco, Australia, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, United Kingdom (HSE) or United States
(ACGIH, OSHA).
PERSONAL PROTECTION: none
EYE PROTECTION:
- Employee should wear splash-proof or dust resistant safety goggles to prevent eye contact with this substance.
EMERGENCY EYE WASH:
- Where there is any possibility that an employee's eyes may be exposed to this substance, the employer should provide an eye wash fountain within
the immediate work area for emergency use.
CLOTHING:
Employee should wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment to prevent repeated prolonged skin contact with this substance.
GLOVES:
Employee should wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent contact with this substance.
RESPIRATOR:
The following respirators are recommended based on information found in the physical data, toxicity and health effects sections. They are ranked in order from minimum to maximum respiratory protection.
The specific respirator selected must be based on contamination levels found in the work place and the specific operation, and must be jointly approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (NIOSH-MSHA). Contamination levels in the work place must not exceed the working limits of the respirator
i) Any dust and mist respirator with a full facepiece.
ii) Any air-purifying full facepiece respirator with a high-efficiency particulate filter.
iii) Any powered air-purifying respirator with a tight-fitting facepiece and high-efficiency
particulate filter.
iv) Any type 'C' supplied-air respirator with a full facepiece operated in pressure-demand or other
positive pressure mode or with a full facepiece, helmet or hood operated in continuous-flow
mode.
FOR FIREFIGHTING AND OTHER IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE OR HEALTH CONDITIONS
v) Any self-contained breathing apparatus that has a full facepiece and is operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.
vi) Any supplied-air respirator that has a full facepiece and is operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode in combination with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.
Stability and reactivity
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
- May burn but does not ignite readily. Avoid contact with strong oxidisers, excessive heat, sparks, or open flame.
REACTIVITY:
- Stable under normal temperatures and pressures.
INCOMPATIBILITIES:
- No data available.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION:
- Thermal decomposition may release toxic and/or hazardous gases.
Disposal considerations
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
