Inhalation
Move to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.


Skin contact
Wash off thoroughly with plenty of soap and water, if available with polyethyleneglycol 400, subsequently rinse with water. If symptoms persist, call a physician.


Eye contact
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed


Symptoms
lethargy


Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed


Risks
This product, although being a carbamate, is NOT a cholinesterase inhibitor.


Treatment
Treat symptomatically. In case of ingestion gastric lavage should be considered in cases of significant ingestions only within the first 2 hours. However, the application of activated charcoal and sodium sulphate is always advisable. Elimination by dialysis (forced alkaline diuresis). There is no specific antidote.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media


Suitable
Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.


Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture


In the event of fire the following may be released:, Hydrogen cyanide (hydrocyanic acid), Carbon monoxide (CO), Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Accumulation of fine dust may entail the risk of a dust explosion in the presence of air.



Advice for firefighters


Special protective equipment for firefighters


In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.


Further information


Contain the spread of the fire-fighting media. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures


Precautions


Avoid dust formation. Remove all sources of ignition. Avoid contact with spilled product or contaminated surfaces. Use personal protective equipment.


Environmental precautions
Do not allow to get into surface water, drains and ground water.


Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up


Methods for cleaning up


Avoid dust formation and electrical charging (sparking) because dust explosion might occur. Use mechanical handling equipment. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly, observing environmental regulations. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling


Advice on safe handling


Avoid dust formation. Use only in area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation.


Advice on protection against fire and explosion


Dust may form explosive mixture in air. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic charge.


Hygiene measures


Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Keep working clothes separately. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product. Remove soiled clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before using again. Garments that cannot be cleaned must be destroyed (burnt).



Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Advice on common storage


Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.


Suitable materials
LDPE (low density polyethylene)
Polypropylene-foil (PP)



Specific end use(s)
Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1.2 no other specific uses are stipulated.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Respiratory protection


If product is handled while not enclosed, and if contact may occur:
Wear respirator with a particle filter mask (protection factor 4) conforming to European norm EN149FFP1 or equivalent.
Respiratory protection should only be used to control residual risk of short duration activities, when all reasonably practicable steps have been taken to reduce exposure at source e.g. containment and/or local extract ventilation. Always follow respirator manufacturer's instructions regarding wearing and maintenance.



Hand protection


Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time.
Wash gloves when contaminated. Dispose of when contaminated inside, when perforated or when contamination on the outside cannot be removed. Wash hands frequently and always before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.
Material Nitrile rubber
Break through time > 480 min
Glove thickness > 0,4 mm
Directive Protective gloves complying with EN 374.


Eye protection


Wear goggles (conforming to EN166, Field of Use = 5 or equivalent).


Skin and body protection


Wear standard coveralls and Category 3 Type 5 suit.
If there is a risk of significant exposure, consider a higher protective type suit.
