Inhalation Exposure

IF INHALED: remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.

Symptoms:

When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. Medical examination necessary even merely on suspicion of intoxication.

Skin Contact

After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap.

Symptoms:

In case of skin irritation

Eye Contact

In case of contact with eyes flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist

Ingestion/Swallowing

If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label. If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious).

Immediate Medical Attention Required

Treat symptomatically

Medical Treatment

Handling & Storage

Safe Handling & Storage Procedures

Industrial handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace safety requirements

Handling Precautions

Avoid contact with eyes and skin.

Avoid inhalation of dust.

Storage Conditions

Store on a dry place.

General Hygiene Measures

For general occupational hygiene, store away from food and drink.

Section 8

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

Engineering Controls

Use adequate exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentration below the allowable exposure limit. Collect the quantities of products spilled on the ground. Engineering controls (like ventilation) and safe systems of work should be used in preference to PPE to minimize the risk of exposure and keep airborne concentration below the allowable exposure limit.

Hand Protection

Use glove while handling the product.

Eye Protection

Wear safety glasses with lateral protection. Eye wash equipment should be available at the workplace

Respiratory Protection

If exposure is likely to result in the exceedance of OEL concentrations, the following table specifies suitable respiratory protection. Breathing apparatus according to EN 149 is recommended in case of exceeding TLV.

Skin/Body Protection

Protect skin from exposure with usual work ware. Good personal hygiene is particularly recommended.

Environmental Exposure Controls

Avoid discharge to sewers, storm drains, surface waters and soil. PNEC aqua (Freshwater) = 0.00014 mg/L, PNEC (Marinewater) = 0.000014 mg/L, PNEC (Intermittent releases) = 0.00022 mg/L, PNEC STP = 100 mg/L, PNEC sediment (Freshwater) = 0.014 mg/kg sediment dw, PNEC sediment (Marinewater) = 0.0014 mg/kg sediment dw, PNEC soil = 0.014 mg/kg soil dw.
