First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures:

Pay attention to self-protection.

Remove victims from hazardous area. Immediately remove soiled or soaked clothing and remove it to a safe distance. Keep victim warm, in a stabilized position and covered.

Do not leave victims unattended.

If the casualty is unconscious: Place the victim in the recovery position.

Inhalation:

Inhalation is possible if aerosols, mists, dusts, or smoke form.

Move victims into fresh air.

With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen. Consult a doctor.

If the casualty is not breathing: Perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, notify emergency physician immediately.

Skin contact:

Wash off affected area immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.

If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.

Eye contact:

With eye held open, thoroughly rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.

In case of persistent discomfort: Consult an ophthalmologist.

Ingestion:

Rinse mouth.

Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.

Obtain medical attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms: None known

Hazards: Other dangerous properties can not be excluded.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:

This substance has no remarkable acute health hazard potential. Acute health damage is therefore not to be expected.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media:       

Water spray jet

Foam

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Dry powder

Unsuitable extinguishing media:       

Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

May be released in case of fire: toxic gases/vapours.

Formation of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.

nitrogen oxides (NOx)

hydrogen chloride

Sulphur oxides

Hydro-cyanic acid

Advice for firefighters:

Contaminated extinguishing water must be treated at a suitable disposal plant in accordance with waste management laws.

Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil or stretches of water.

In case of fire, remove the endangered barrels and bring to a safe place, if this can be done safely.

Keep out unprotected persons.

Wear a self contained respiratory apparatus

Full protective suit

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear personal protective Equipment.

Avoid formation of dust. Ensure sufficient ventilation.

Keep out unprotected persons.

Environmental precautions:

Observe regulations on prevention of water pollution (check, dam up, cover up).

Do not allow entrance in sewage water, soil, stretches of water, drainage systems, surface water.

If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Absorb mechanically avoiding production of dust. Collect in suitable containers.

Disposal according to local authority regulations.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

Observe the rules usually applicable when handling chemicals.

Provide sufficient ventilation and exhaust at the workplace.

Avoid dust formation.

Keep in a dry, cool place.

Avoid residues of the product on the containers.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:

Advice on protection against fire and explosion

Keep away from combustion sources such as sparks, flames and unprotected light sources.

When using do not smoke.

Take precautionary measures against static charges, keep away from sources of ignition.

Storage:

Store in the original receptacle, keeping this tightly sealed, under cool and dry conditions.

Protect from moisture.

Further information:

In order to ensure due transportation, make certain that stacks are of the correct height, containers are securely fastened so as not to fall off, and labelled according to the regulations.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls:

Engineering measures:

Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at machinery.

Provide for installation of emergency shower and eye bath.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection

When handling for a short time: Respirator with P2 particle filter

In the case of respirable dust, use self-contained breathing apparatus.

Hand protection

Applies to handling for brief periods or of small amounts:

Glove material:              Nitrile

Material thickness:       0.11 mm

Method:              DIN EN 374

Applies to handling for longer periods or of large amounts:

Glove material:              Nitrile/Chloroprene

Material thickness:       0.65 mm

Method:              DIN EN 374

Selection of protective gloves to meet the requirements of specific workplaces.

Suitability for specific workplaces should be clarified with protective glove manufacturers.

The information is based on our own tests, references from the literature and information from glove manufacturers, or derived by analogy with similar materials.

Remember that the useful time per day of a chemical protection glove may be much shorter than the permeation time determined according to EN 374 due to the many different influential factors involved (e.g. temperature).

Eye protection

Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166

or

When handling larger quantities: basket-shaped glasses

Skin and body protection

Select materials and equipment for physical protection depending on the concentration and volume of hazardous substances and the workplace involved.

Hygiene measures

Do not eat, drink, smoke, or sniff while at work. Wash your hands and/or face before breaks and before termination of work.

Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.

Preventive skin protection is recommended.

Use barrier cream regularly.

Protective measures

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

If there is the possibility of skin/eye contact, the indicated hand/eye/body protection should be used.

The personal protective equipment used must meet the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and amendments (CE certification).

It should be defined in the work place in the form of a risk analysis according to Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and amendments.
