First-aid measures

General advice:       Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.

If inhaled:              Remove to fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

In case of skin contact:       Wash off with soap and water. No hazards which require special first aid measures.

In case of eye contact:       No hazards which require special first aid measures. Flush eyes with water as a precaution. Get medical                            attention if irritation develops and persists.

If swallowed:       No hazards which require special first aid measures.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:              Any

Specific hazards during fire-fighting:              Fire may cause evolution of:

                           Carbon monoxide (CO)

                           Carbon dioxide (CO2)

                           Nitrogen oxides (NOx)

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

Further information:                     Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground                                   water system.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions:              Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation.

Environmental precautions:       Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.

Methods for cleaning up:              Contain spillage, and then collect with an electrically protected vacuum cleaner or by                                   wet-brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations

Handling and storage

Advice on safe handling:                     No special precautions required.

Advice on protection against fire and explosion:       No special protective measures against fire required.

Dust explosion class:                     St 2 (= dust explosion tendency)

Requirements for storage areas and containers:       For storage suitable stores with adequate product-reception volume must be                                          used. During handling local official regula-tions must be observed in order to avert                                   impairment of water by the product.

Storage class (TRGS 510):              11, Combustible Solids

Specific use(s):                     No statements available.

Exposure controls / personal protection

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with  REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4).  Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site.  

Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from every affected Distributor and Downstream Processor/User of the Registrant’s intermediate.

8.1 Control parameters

No known occupational limit values.

8.2 Exposure controls

Respiratory protection

If product is handled while not enclosed, and if contact may occur:

Wear respirator with an organic vapours and gas filter mask (protection factor 10) conforming to EN140 type A 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

Rate of permeability

> 480 min

Glove thickness

> 0,4 mm

Protective index

Class 6

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 6 suit.

If there is a risk of significant exposure, consider a higher protective type suit.

Wear two layers of clothing wherever possible. Polyester/cotton or cotton overalls should be worn under chemical protection suit and should be professionally laundered frequently.

If chemical protection suit is splashed, sprayed or significantly contaminated, decontaminate as far as possible, then carefully remove and dispose of as advised by manufacturer.

General protective measures

If product is handled while not enclosed, and if contact may occur:

Complete suit protecting against chemicals
