Magnesium chloride, ultra dry

Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.

Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.

Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Water spray, carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical, alcohol-resistant foam.

Water.

Reacts violently with water. Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid dust formation.

Should not be released into the environment. See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information.

Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.

Wear personal protective equipment/face protection. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Avoid dust formation.

Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store under an inert atmosphere.

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Provide regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing.

Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Wherever possible, engineering control measures such as the isolation or enclosure of the process, the introduction of process or equipment changes to minimise release or contact, and the use of properly designed ventilation systems, should be adopted to control hazardous materials at source

Protective gloves. Glove material: Natural rubber, Nitrile rubber, Neoprene, PVC. Breakthrough time: See manufacturers recommendations. EU standard: EN 374. Glove comments: (minimum requirement)

Goggles (European standard - EN 166)

When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. To protect the wearer, respiratory protective equipment must be the correct fit and be used and maintained properly. Large scale/emergency use: Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 136 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. Recommended Filter type: Particulates filter conforming to EN 143. Small scale/Laboratory use: Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149:2001 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced. Recommended half mask:- Particle filtering: EN149:2001. When RPE is used a face piece Fit Test should be conducted

Impervious gloves. Inspect gloves before use. observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. (Refer to manufacturer/supplier for information) gloves are suitable for the task: Chemical compatibility, Dexterity, Operational conditions, User susceptibility, e.g. sensitisation effects, also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion. gloves with care avoiding skin contamination.

Hygroscopic.

None known, based on information available

Hazardous polymerization does not occur. None under normal processing.

Incompatible products. Excess heat. Avoid dust formation. Exposure to moist air or water. (When mixed with limited amount of water enough heat may be generated to cause frothing).

Strong oxidizing agents.

Magnesium oxides. Hydrogen chloride gas.

Dispose of in accordance with the European Directives on waste and hazardous waste. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.

Waste is classified as hazardous.
