Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
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:
Potential for exposure by inhalation if dusts or smoke are generated.
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.
Consult an ophthalmologist immediately if the symptoms persist.
Ingestion:
Rinse out mouth.
Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.
Consult a physician immediately.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:
-
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:
After accidental absorption in the body, the pathology and clinical findings are dependent on the kinetics of the noxious substance (quantity of absorbed substance, the absorption time, and the effectiveness of early elimination measures (first aid)/ excretion - metabolism).
Continue with first aid measures.
Depending on the pathology and clinical findings, patient monitoring and symptomatic treatment are necessary.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media:
Water spray, foam, CO2, dry powder.
Unsuitable extinguishing media:
High volume water jet.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:
Hazardous fumes in fires, specific to the product:
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Under certain fire conditions, traces of other toxic products may occur.
Ammonia
Carbon oxides.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters:
In case of fire: wear a self contained respiratory apparatus.
Wear suitable protective clothing.
Advice for firefighters:
Water used to extinguish fire should not enter drainage systems, soil, or stretches of water.
Ensure there are sufficient retaining facilities for water used to extinguish fire.
Contaminated fire-extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations issued by the appropriate local authorities.
Fire residues should be disposed of in accordance with the regulations.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Avoid dust formation.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow substance to enter soil, bodies of water or sewage canals.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Use mechanical handling equipment.
Fill into marked, sealable containers.
Handling and storage
Handling:
Precautions for safe handling:
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Avoid dust formation.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion:
If dusts develop, explosive dust/air mixtures may form.
Further information: VDI 2263 "Dust fires and dust explosions; dangers, evaluation, preventive measures."
Dust explosion class:
Avoid dust formation.
Must be rendered inert for grinding.
Danger of dust explosion.
Storage:
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep container tightly closed.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control parameters:
-
Engineering measures:
Provide adequate ventilation.
In case of dust being formed, provide for adequate extraction.
Personal protective equipment:
Respiratory protection:
In case of dusts/vapours/aerosols being formed or if the limit values like TLV are exceeded:
If workplace exposure limit is exceeded apply Respiratory device with independent air supply or Dust mask with P2 particle filter.
Note time limit for wearing respiratory protective equipment.
Hand protection:
Recommendation:
Suitable protective gloves
Glove material nitrile rubber, butyl-rubber, 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).
The material thickness and rupture time data do not apply to non-solute solids / dusts.
The rupture time and material thickness data are guideline values!
Exact rupture time / material thickness:
Data can be obtained from the protective glove manufacturer.
Method DIN EN 374.
Eye protection:
Close-fitting protective goggles (e.g. closed goggles).
Skin and body protection:
In case of mechanical processing:
Use protective clothing / face shield if necessary.
Hygiene measures:
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Do not breathe dust.
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
Protective measures:
The personal protective equipment used must meet the requirements of directive 89/686/EEC and amendments (CE certification).
Stability and reactivity
Conditions to avoid:
Take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
Avoid dust formation.
Hazardous decomposition products:
Decomposition products in combustion, chemical or thermal decomposition:
Ammonia, nitrogen oxides (NOx), Carbon oxides.
Disposal considerations
Product:
With respect to local regulations, e.g. dispose of to suitable waste incineration plant.
The waste key number must be determined as per the European Waste Types List (decision on EU Waste Types List 2000/532/EC) in cooperation with the disposal firm / producing firm / official authority.
