Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas.

Storage

Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.

Fire prevention

Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Hands

Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and other. Supplementary note: The specifications are based on own tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined in accordance to EN 374.

Eyes

Tightly fitting safety goggles (splash goggles) (EN 166)

Respiratory

Breathing protection if ventilation is inadequate.

Skin/Body

Wearing of closed work clothing is required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment.

Ecological Information

Environmental toxicity, biodegradation, and bioaccumulation data

Ecotoxicity

Assessment of aquatic toxicity: There is a high probability that the product is not acutely harmful to aquatic organisms. The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced to biological treatment plants in appropriate low concentrations. Toxicity to fish: LC50 (96 h) 11,800 mg/l, Pimephales promelas (Fish test acute, Flow through.) The product will cause changes in the pH value of the test system. The result refers to an neutralized sample. The statement of the toxic effect relates to the analytically determined concentration. Literature data. Aquatic invertebrates: EC50 (48 h) 609.9 mg/l, Ceriodaphnia dubia (Daphnia test acute) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Literature data. Aquatic plants: EC50 (72 h) 216 mg/l, Scenedesmus subspicatus (DIN 38412 Part 9, static) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. The product will cause changes in the pH value of the test system. The result refers to an unneutralized sample. After neutralization a reduction in harmful effect can be observed. Literature data. EC50 (72 h) 512 mg/l, Scenedesmus subspicatus (DIN 38412 Part 9) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. The product will cause changes in the pH value of the test system. The result refers to an neutralized sample. Literature data. Microorganisms/Effect on activated sludge: EC50 (180 min) > 1,000 mg/l, activated sludge, domestic (OECD Guideline 209) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Literature data. Toxic limit concentration (16 h) > 10,000 mg/l, Pseudomonas putida (DIN 38412 Part 8, aquatic) The details of the toxic effect relate to the nominal concentration. Literature data. Chronic toxicity to aquatic invertebrates: No observed effect concentration (21 d), 16 mg/l, Daphnia magna (other, semistatic) Literature data.

Persistence and degradability

Assessment biodegradation and elimination (H2O): Readily biodegradable (according to OECD criteria). Literature data. Elimination information: 90 - 100 % DOC reduction (19 d) (OECD 301E/92/69/EEC, C.4-B) (municipal sewage treatment plant effluent) Information on Stability in Water (Hydrolysis): According to structural properties, hydrolysis is not expected/probable.

Bioaccumulation potential

Bioaccumulation potential: Bioconcentration factor: < 0.4 (42 d), Cyprinus carpio (OECD Guideline 305 C) Does not accumulate in organisms. Literature data.
