GA 3064

Remove exposed person to fresh air if adverse effects are observed.

Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Wash with soap and water. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.

Symptoms: skin irritation or rash

Any material that contacts the eye should be washed out immediately with water. If easy to do, remove contact lenses.

Treat symptomatically.

CO2, Dry chemical or Foam. Water can be used to cool and protect exposed material.

Not determined.

See section 10 for additional information.

No data available.

Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep unauthorized personnel away.

Dike far ahead of larger spill for later recovery and disposal.

Avoid release to the environment. Do not contaminate water sources or sewer. Environmental manager must be informed of all major spillages. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Pick up free liquid for recycle and/or disposal. Residual liquid can be absorbed on inert material.

Materials: inert material

In case of spills, beware of slippery floors and surfaces. Use grounding and bonding connection when transferring material. Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). Use proper bonding and/or grounding procedures. Keep container closed when not in use and use with adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation of vapors upon opening container. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.

Store away from incompatible materials. See section 10 for incompatible materials. Odorous and toxic fumes may form from the decomposition of this product. Do not store product at temperature in excess of 45°C (113°F) for extended periods of time, 1 week or more; or, using a heat source, such as steam, at a temperature in excess of 100°C (212°F).

Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.

Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). Use proper bonding and/or grounding procedures.

No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation. Material should be handled in enclosed vessels and equipment, in which case general (mechanical) room ventilation should be sufficient. Local exhaust ventilation should be used at points where dust, mist, vapors or gases can escape into the room air. Use material in well ventilated area only.

Use nitrile or neoprene gloves. Use good industrial hygiene practices. In case of skin contact, wash hands and arms with soap and water. Gloves are recommended when handling this material. Unless material is used in a process where the use of gloves would pose sufficient risk of injury to the user/operator. Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate clothing protection for your specific use of this material. Gloves should always be inspected before each use and discarded if they show tears, pinholes, or signs of wear. For typical use and handling of chemical substances, gloves should meet the standards set out in EN 374. For applications involving mechanical risks with potential for abrasion or puncture, the standards set out in EN 388 should be considered. For tasks involving thermal hazards, the standards set out in EN 407 should be considered. For continuous contact, we suggest gloves with a minimum breakthrough time of 240 minutes, or > 480 minutes if suitable gloves can be obtained. If suitable gloves are not available to offer that level of protection, gloves with shorter breakthrough times may be acceptable as long as appropriate glove maintenance and replacement regimes are determined and adhered to. For short-term, transient exposures and splash protection, gloves with shorter breakthrough times may commonly be used. Therefore, appropriate maintenance and replacement regimes must be determined and rigorously followed. For general applications, we recommend gloves with a thickness typically greater than 0.35 mm. Thinner gloves (down to 0.1 mm or less) may be required where a high degree of manual dexterity is needed. However, these gloves are only likely to give short duration protection and would normally be just for single use applications, before being disposed of. Thicker gloves (up to 3 mm or more) may be required where there is a mechanical (as well as a chemical) risk i.e. where there is abrasion or puncture potential.

If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended. Eye protection should meet the standards set out in EN 166.

Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate respiratory protection for your specific use of this material. A respiratory protection program compliant with all applicable regulations must be followed whenever workplace conditions require the use of a respirator. Use disposable dust/mist mask if the recommended exposure limit is exceeded. Use respirator with an organic vapor cartridge if exposure limit is exceeded. Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) is not normally required where there is adequate natural or local exhaust ventilation to control exposure. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. The correct choice of respiratory protection depends upon the chemicals being handled, the conditions of work and use, and the condition of the respiratory equipment. Safety procedures should be developed for each intended application. Respiratory protection equipment should therefore be chosen in consultation with the supplier/manufacturer and with a full assessment of the working conditions. Please refer to the relevant EN standards for the RPE selected.

Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minimize contact. Do not wear rings, watches or similar apparel that could entrap the material. Chemical resistant boots. Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate clothing protection for your specific use of this material.
